<p>Hello,</p>
<p>Please check this page [1] for information about debugging. You
can use 'make <module>.clean && make <module>
debug=t' if you're only working with a module of LibreOffice,
otherwise, you should use --enable-debug. The time it takes to
build will depend on your computer. For the first build, I would
recommend you to run it overnight, using 'time build' to see how
long it takes. You can find more information on how to speed up
the build here [2]<br>
</p>
<p>Once the build is done we suggest you:</p>
<p>* Start with solving some 'beginner' easyHacks [3] <br>
* Solve at least one 'interesting' easyHack<br>
* Start discussing your ideas with possible mentors, and preparing
your proposal<br>
* Don't leave your proposal to the last day. Sooner is better.<br>
<br>
Also checking the GSoC ideas page first, and trying to choose the
easyHacks related to your probable idea(s) might be a good idea
[4], and perhaps also the page for ideas without a mentor yet [5].<br>
<br>
If you ever get stuck (after doing the usual leg-work (re(search),
try, debug etc.) yourself), please don't hesitate to ask your
questions either on the #libreoffice-dev IRC channel, or on this
mailing list.</p>

<div dir="ltr">Hi,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am Gagandeep Singh and I am a junior undergraduate at
Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur. I am looking forward
to contributing to libreoffice this summer throught GSOC 2019
and would love to hear back from you guys.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have started building libreoffice, though just one
question, should i use --enable-debug for just doing Easy
Hacks, or use it and if yes, then, how long would it take to
build.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>After building it would look at the ideas page and ask the
related mentors for the tasks. Will this be alright? </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks in advance</div>
<div>Gagandeep Singh</div>
