I am a new developer, trying to get started. Ilmari provided a bunch of
resources; I installed lots of software and got to the point where I
thought I was ready to build. I entered the command and options from
the instructions:
/cygdrive/c/sources/libo-core
$ /cygdrive/c/sources/libo-core/autogen.sh \
--with-external-tar=/cygdrive/c/sources/lo-externalsrc \
--with-junit=/cygdrive/c/sources/junit-4.10.jar \
--with-ant-home=/cygdrive/c/sources/apache-ant-1.9.5 \
--enable-pch --disable-ccache
After lots of successful assertions, I ran into this error:
checking for al.exe... configure: error: al.exe not found as /al.exe
Error running configure at /cygdrive/c/sources/libo-core/autogen.sh line
316.
Line 316: system ("./configure", @args) && die "Error running
configure";
The file al.exe does not exist anywhere on my machine. A web search
suggests that it comes with the MS Visual Studio install and lives in
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727 (even though there are
also folders for v3.0, v3.5, and v4.0.30319). I did that as part of my
install, and the directory has 185 files, but no al.exe. I was not able
to find any trustworthy place to just download al.exe.
