Hancom Apps & Oz 3.5.2 Opie
« on: February 17, 2005, 09:17:39 am »
after quite a bit of struggle and searching the forum for information, i could get get hancom apps up and running on my 6000L with oz 3.5.2 . here is how.

1. make sure you have the right hancom apps. the ones that work are
     416,748 hancommobileword_1.4.4_arm.ipk
     749,186 hancomsheet-en_1.0.1_arm.ipk.

    the ones distributed with sharp 3.xx dont work (at least i couldnt figure out how).
2. if you dont have them, you can download them from here hancom download
    but you will need a valid serial number of 5600 to download these files.
3.  installing hancomsheet is pretty straightforward - install the apps and then run oz-compat.
4.  i couldnt install hancomword as it has something broken. therefore i just used a brute force install:
   - extract the data.tar.gz from the ipk
   - unpack the archive and copy it to the zaurus in the respective directories.
   - re-start opie. you will now see a hancomword icon in the Applications tab.
   - run oz-compat and specify file /opt/QtPalmtop/bin/HancomMobileWord
   - open a terminal window and cd to /opt/QtPalmtop/lib. type in the following:
      ln -s libhanlib_pda.so.2.4.10 libhanlib_pda.so.2
      ln -s libhstorage.so.1.0.0 libhstorage.so.1


you can now (hopefully) run hancomword & hancomsheet.

bazmi,

Three things:

1) FWIW, I could install HancomWord from the .ipk with no problems.  You do need to "-force-depends" though, if I recall--it will complain about qpe-base I think, but the opie libs provide that functionality.

2) When using HancomWord, do you experience the weird "Save" problem I describe here?

3) Does HancomSheet work properly for you?  From what I've been able to gather, it will not work on OZ even if you manage to install and run it (I could install, but it always crashed with a SIGSEV)

1. when i try to install hancomword, i get a message - 'no architecture defined'. i saw somewhere in this forum that this is because of  a broken control.tar in the ipk.  i tried with -force-depends but get the same message.

2. no i dont have the same problem with hancomword. tried to duplicate what you have described and seems to work ok for me. the only time when save-as dialog comes upon selecting save from the menu is when it is a new file - which is to be expected. after that save just saves, no dialog pops up.

i guess that since you dont have my problem 1 and i dont have your problem 2, we might be using diff versions of hancom word!

3. no, hancomsheet works just fine.

cheers,

/bazmi.

Check that the operations (like addition and multipication) actually produce the right answers.

If it does in fact work, I wonder why - does your build not use soft-float?

i get a message - 'no architecture defined'

Actually, we may very well be using different versions.  I got that message when I tried to install the versions from the Sharp 3.x ROM's, which I thought were v1.5 of Hancom.  I also think I got that error in OZ 3.5.1.  In the newest 3.5.2, though, everything went well using the versions downloaded from Hancom's web page and the following command:

Code: [Select]
ipkg install -d sd -force-depends hancommobileword_1.4.4_arm.ipk

no i dont have the same problem with hancomword

That's very strange--and very annoying (for me, anyway- good that it works for you). . . I may try a re-install.

you are absolutely right! the hancomsheet does behave strangely. didnt notice it as i normally just use hancomsheet to read for reference the excel sheets which i transfer from my desktop.  the behaviour i get is:

1. reading the spreadsheet is fine - the numbers are displayed correctly and so are the formulae (ie if a cell is a sum/product etc of two other cells then the value displayed is correct)

2. if i try to enter data in a cell then the number displayed is wierd (if i enter 3, i see a 100, if i enter 4, i still see 100) but strangely, the number that i see in the formula bar is the number that i had entered.

so, i dont think that i have a problem with  arithmentic operations, but certainly a problem with the display.

and yes, i have downloaded the the ipk files from the same place as you. so i guess there are some other differences in our setup - maybe one of us doesnt have all the updates/patches etc applied. or could it be a model difference? i am using a 6000L. strange, very strange ;-(

cheers,

/bazmi.

@bazmi: This is presumably the effect of the use of soft-float. I'm suprised that sums and products display correctly (unless they are integer, perhaps...?)

1. when i try to install hancomword, i get a message - 'no architecture defined'. i saw somewhere in this forum that this is because of  a broken control.tar in the ipk.  i tried with -force-depends but get the same message.

Your right, it is just the control file that is screwed up.  Here is how to fix it.  

1.tar -xzf hancommobileword_1.4.4_arm.ipk
2.tar -xzf control.tar.gz
3.emacs control (or whatever editor you like) to have just:
Code: [Select]
Package: hancommobileword
Installed-Size:  538444
Version: 1.4.4
Priority: optional
Section: qpe
Maintainer: www.hancom.com
Architecture: arm
Description: HancomMobileWord
Note there should be one blank line at the end, and no other blank lines anywhere.
4.Save and exit the editor
5.tar -czf ./control.tar.gz ./control
6.tar -czf hancommobileword_1.4.4_arm.ipk ./debian-binary ./data.tar.gz ./control.tar.gz

Now the package manager should happily install this program.  You still need to do the oz-compat thing.  I don't know why, but I did not need to the linking at the end of bazmi's directions.  It worked for me, but I am new to OpenZaurus (flashed last night, and still getting programs loaded), so I don't know if it will work for anyone else.
