132 <p>The SDK provides an implicit configuration mechanism, which
133 configures the SDK build environment to your personal needs the first
134 time you use the SDK environment. This configuration step creates one or
135 two new setsdkenv_XXX scripts in the user's home directory:
</P>
137 <li><b>$HOME/$OO_SDK_NAME/setsdkenv_unix.sh
</b> and
<b>$HOME/$OO_SDK_NAME/setsdkenv_unix.csh

138 <li><b>C:\Documents and Settings\
<username

</b></a> -
> for Windows2000/XP or later
140 <p>The automatically started configure script (Unix and Windows2000/XP)
141 requests relevant information and directories (SDK, StarOffice, GNU make,
142 Java, C++), in order to prepare a working SDK environment. After completing the
143 configure script once, the newly created script is always used to set the
144 necessary environment variables for using the SDK and the required
146 <p>On UNIX operating systems, the configure script uses Perl. LINUX systems should have
147 installed a working Perl version, and on Solaris you can find a working
148 Perl version under

"http://www.sunfreeware.com/" title=
"link to www.sunfreeware.com (online)">http://www.sunfreeware.com/
