Hello,
Could you please describe, which tweaks were needed? In my experience, there should be nothing needed on Windows; even StarOffice 5.2 from 2000 works without problems
At least for 3.x and 4.x releases I had to do the following
tweaks:
1. Extract files from msi
2. Move *.dll files in URE/bin to instdir/program
3. Move *.rdb files in URE/misc to instdir/program
4. Move msvcp* and msvcr* from Win/System/ to instdir/program
5. Append to instdir/program/uno.ini
[Bootstrap]
URE_INTERNAL_LIB_DIR=\${ORIGIN}
URE_INTERNAL_JAVA_DIR=\${ORIGIN}/classes
URE_INTERNAL_JAVA_CLASSPATH=\${URE_MORE_JAVA_TYPES}
UNO_TYPES=\${ORIGIN}/types.rdb \${URE_MORE_TYPES}
UNO_SERVICES=\${ORIGIN}/services.rdb \${URE_MORE_SERVICES}
6. Change UserInstallation in instdir/program/bootstrap.ini ( to use a different user profile )
7. touch instdir/ure-link ( so calling .exe files directly works )
8. Remove instdir/share/extensions/ so
we can save some space
Regards
