Khaled Hosny a1b5f5cedd vcl: Remove the dead fd-hack
Drop the exterals patches as VCL internals don’t support this anymore,
and drop the LOK addfont change as it wouldn’t work now. I don’t know if
LOK addfont has any use now, but I left it.

LibreOffice Binary

Code for the LibreOffice main binary (soffice) resides here. The soffice_main function for the soffice binary can be found here.

Stable Interface

Some of the artifacts built here are part of a LibreOffice installation set's stable interface, which (programmatic) clients can depend on. Among them are:

soffice

In the program directory (program/ on Linux and Windows, Contents/MacOS/ on macOS).

unoinfo

In the program directory (program/ on Linux and Windows, Contents/MacOS/ on macOS).

When called with a sole argument of c++, it prints to stdout an absolute pathname denoting the directory where the public URE libraries are found.

When called with a sole argument of java, it prints to stdout a marker character (either an ASCII '0' or '1') followed by a sequence of zero or more absolute pathnames denoting jars or directories that need to be included in a class loader's search locations.

If the marker character is '0' (on Linux and macOS), the pathnames are encoded as bytes, and any two pathnames in the sequence are separated from each other by NUL bytes.

If the marker character is '1' (on Windows), the pathnames are encoded as UTF-16-LE two-byte code units, and any two pathnames in the sequence are separated from each other by two-byte NUL code units.

Other Binaries
