Re: OpenOffice for Amazon Linux in aarch64 architecture

[Jesús Alberto Cantú Peña]

Hello:
I started using AWS g4 generation machines and i need an open office
software for that kind of architecture: (Linux machine aarch64)
Do you know if exist an Open Office versión to be installed on that
architecture machines?

Thanks
Jesús

Hello
Can you please let me know if there is an open office version to install it
in a Linux machine with aarch64 architecture?
Thanks.
I appreciated your help.

at the moment we don't have a ready-to-use installation for ARM-based
systems. There is the idea to support this but no progress at the moment.

Hi

With OpenOffice it's not just a matter of recompiling for a new
architecture. Each architecture needs its own bridge to be developed, to
support low-level interoperability between UNO programming languages, such
as calling C++ methods from Java, converting Java exceptions to C++, etc.
This is extremely difficult, requiring not only assembly language, but even
machine code in some cases.

While we do have support for the 32 bit ARM ABI in our gcc3_freebsd_arm and
gcc3_linux_arm bridges, the Aarch64 architecture requires a new bridge to
be developed.

Wikipedia claims Aarch64 is compatible with 32 bit ARM, so maybe you could
run the 32 bit ARM build of OpenOffice instead?
