Source Control

We use Apache Subversion for version control. You can browse our repository in your web browser.

See our Subversion Basics for more information on using subversion (svn) for the Apache OpenOffice project.

For further information see the Apache Source Code Repository page.

Getting the source code

This will get you everything, including the language files:

svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/trunk aoo

Including SVN overhead, this requires approximately 4 GB of storage.

Browsing/Searching Source Code

We have an instance of Altassian FishEye for source browsing, searching, reporting and visualization of main trunk (main development area).

Also, the Adfinis group hosts an opengrok instance of a few of our main repository areas.

Building and Running

See the Apache OpenOffice Building Guide page for an overview on building.

See Development Snapshots builds for additional information on building.

Testing Developer Installation Sets

See Development Snapshot Builds: Full installation sets or Nightly Builds for complete installation sets for available platforms.

Install the "Developer Installation Set" to a new directory if you don't want to overwrite your existing Apache OpenOffice installation.

• Linux: Create a new directory for the AOO developer install. Install the RPM pack with --prefix="some new AOO directory" option.
• Windows: Use the custom install option, and choose a new directory location for the AOO developer install.
• Mac: create a new folder for AOO developer install. Download the ".dmg" file there, and install to the new directory.

Code and Contribution Statistics

Our SVN tree is read by the Ohloh tracker to generate some various statistics. Note that the migration from the legacy Mercurial repository to SVN at Apache has caused pre-existing files to be double-counted. But the contribution history should be intact.

Legacy Source Code Repository

A clone of the project's legacy (pre-Apache, Hg OOO340) version control system is maintained as service to the ecosystem by a volunteer. Please note that this code is LGPL-licenced and is not maintained by the Apache OpenOffice project.

The legacy repository can be found here.

And, developer areas (cws, etc.) from here.
