Re: Extension URL has changed since yesterday?
Marco A.G.Pinto wrote: previous URL: http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/en/project/english-dictionaries-apache-openoffice URL now: http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/english-dictionaries-apache-openoffice The services vanished in the new URL. Is there a way of fixing it, or will I need to upload a new OXT? Or can Andrea change it personally? Multiple discussions on multiple lists with multiple additional recipients do not help clarity but... I repeat here too that I see it working normally now. The URL with services is still supported but (in the long term) you should use the one without it. And the technical justification is probably completely different than what you imagined: probably you did something wrong with the extension, not the release (like editing the description and thus triggering the anti-spam filter, and thus unpublishing the extension, and thus being able to see it only if you were logged in, and while it is the same site you were logged in at extensions.openoffice.org but not at extensions.services.openoffice.org so you had access denied in the latter; happened to me once too with the Italian dictionary). Anyway, the issue seems solved. The issue is that the link in the Extension Manager will point to the previous one. This should change. With no hurry, but in the next release remove services from the URLs.

It just took several hours (like over 10) just like it says in the building guide page. I am also a math minor and fond of numbers, so I prefer any work related to numeral computation. But, if not, other areas sound interesting too. My goal is to gain some experience working in a huge real world project like OpenOffice as well as contribute to the open source world. I am planning to work on OpenOffice at least for the remaining of my college career, which is over a year. So something that I can work for a long time will be nice. Hi Tenzin, This sounds great! OpenOffice is a big code base, so you'll probably want to start simple. We do have some items in our Bugzilla tracker that are marked as easy hacks : https://issues.apache.org/ooo/buglist.cgi?f1=cf_fix_difficultylist_id=122701o1=equalsquery_format=advancedresolution=---v1=easy These are good to start on. There are also ones slightly more challenging, simple hacks: https://issues.apache.org/ooo/buglist.cgi?f1=cf_fix_difficultylist_id=122702o1=equalsquery_format=advancedresolution=---v1=simple A different approach is to jump right in on our 4.1 bug list, see if you can debug a crash, e.g.: https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=123501 It shouldn't be too hard to reproduce that in a debugger and get a stack for the crash. On the numeric side, you can look at spreadsheet formula related issues by searching in Bugzilla. There are also some recent issues related to our CoinMP integration, which we use for linear programming optimization: https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124115 https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124158 https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124157 Pedro knows that area well and might be able to give you some hints. Ah well ... Without going into the details on how I lost interest in the base OO Calc, I will share this. 1) In general OpenOffice Calc does some generally naive math. The code is mostly taken from textbooks and has been almost heroically enhanced to produce acceptable results. 2) In order to improve Calc you could use some external libraries but most of them require Fortran which would make the build requirements even more complicated than they are. Many things could be done with Boost (which is already in there) but there is a huge resistance to change things that already seem to work as they are. 3) There are some Openformula[1] functions that AOO hasn't implemented. Adding those is usually has less resistance in the project than fixing the stuff we have. It is also easier as you can learn from the code that is already in Calc. 4) A, perhaps easier, way to contribute is to work on Calc Extensions. There are no limits on the compiler/libraries you can use there. I am personally considering using Apple's GCD for some things and that is something that can't be included in AOO's base because it is not supported on linux or windows. There are some ideas on the Wiki[2]. If you want some interesting challenges, the type that you don't find in textbooks, try this: 1.1 Function to return the roots of the *quadric* equation. .. 1.7 Newton Raphson *complex number* solver. Those should be fun as you would have to use complex math for both ;). Just one personal opinion from my side. You can completely rewrite the Calc core calculation engine if you want. Important is that we ensure that results are the same. The reason is quite simple, many documents exists that rely more or less on the results of some calculation. These results should not change by replacing the implementation of specific functions. This can potentially break many existing documents. Only if the calculation is wrong we change/correct it but have to provide a clear public communication why we change it and inform our users. The project is open to any contribution and we appreciate an open minded discussion on bigger changes on our mailing list. Kind regards Juergen Cheers, Pedro.

Mentoring new Developers
Hi all, I know 2 charts, 1 with good news https://issues.apache.org/ooo/reports.cgi?product=-All-datasets=UNCONFIRMED and one with bad news: https://issues.apache.org/ooo/reports.cgi?product=-All-datasets=CONFIRMED I think we urgently need some assistance for the core developers by interested newbie developers Does AOO have a systematic approach how to interest new willing developers and to make sure that they have some sense of achievement when they start? And is that promoted at prominent places? Of course I know http://openoffice.apache.org/get-involved.html, but to me that all sounds bureaucratic and not very inviting. I think we (additionally) need an alternative approach, let's call it Easy Patches. My experience (as a not-developer, but engaged QA member) is that smaller UI-patches are a nice way to get some first experience with th code of the project; And mentoring for newbies does not cost too much time, a simple you find the code in xy area and a review of the patch should be enough in most cases. Examples for bugs what might need an easy patch might be these [1], I think there are a lot more. A part of this idea is to create a short introduction in the Wiki with an automatically generated list of such promising Easy Patch Bug reports, some developers willing to mentor and a very short instruction how to start some first steps to create a patch.

[RELEASE]: new snapshot based on trunk rev. 1566588
Hi, I have moved the snapshot tag to trunk rev. 1566588 and started a new snapshot build. It will become available later this week (depending on the poor upload speed). I have merged some translation updates from Pootle into trunk and this snapshot: Thai, German, Lithuanian, Dutch, Spanish, Serbian, Turkish and Kazakh. Kazakh is for testing mainly and is not 100% UI complete. The build bots will contain this update but not the snapshot builds. They will contain the languages for the release only. Portuguese is not updated because of technical problems on Pootle. I hope this can be fixed soon. Some of you requested an extended date for translations and because of the fact that I will be on vacation next week, I will merge the last updates on Feb. 24th. That means updates can be made on Pootle until Feb. 23th. But I will update only languages where an update is explicitly requested in the related issue. The AOO 4.1 beta will be based on this last translation update and is now proposed for Feb. 28th.

[RELEASE] review of solved issues incl. some minor Bugzilla clean up
Hi, with the support of Herbert - thanks to his script and the provided results - I reviewed the issues which we had solved for our next release based on the commit messages and the current Bugzilla data. My intention was to have the corresponding Bugzilla data cleaned up in order to be able to run a simple Bugzilla query to retrieve a list of the solved issues for AOO 4.1.0. After some minor adjustments to the Bugzilla data the simple query for issues whose field 'Target Milestone' equals '4.1.0' should give the corresponding list of issues - currently 254. Some are not in 'solved' state yet in the Bugzilla, but I assume they until the release. Please keep the Bugzilla data up-to-date for your future work on our next release in order to keep the simple query working. Thanks in advance.

Re: Getting started with development
Hi, Thanks for the link. I completed the build earlier, but i'm still not able to achieve the task listed here https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Tutorial_Start 1) This is the exact change i made in the file(Accelerators.xcu): (after line 123) !-- Tutorial-1 -- node oor:name=T_MOD1 oor:op=replace prop oor:name=Commandvalue xml:lang=x-no-translateI10N SHORTCUTS - NO TRANSLATE/value value xml:lang=en-US.uno:About/value /prop /node !-- -- 2) Now the next steps says *You can copy your changed Accelerators.xcu file directly into the install directory (\OpenOffice.org 3\Basis\share\registry\data\org\openoffice\Office\Accelerators.xcu).* - Im unable to find this file. When they say install directory, Im assuming they mean : opt/openoffice4/So i tried the next option: *Or, you can build the module and rebuild the installer (this assumed you have previously fully built it, if not then just do the usual build --all -P4 from the instsetoo module).* Did this one i think. Just followed the building guide and got the software running earlier. So far so good(I think) *From the $SRCROOT\officecfg directory call build, then deliver to send the changed Accelerators.xcu file to the solenv module.* Im assuming this is: source/aoo-trunk/main/officecfg. There is no option to call build or deliver (these are terminal commands here?) EDIT: i called ./bootstrap and then source LinuxX86Env.Set.shhttp://linuxx86env.set.sh/ from main/ and then repeated the above step. It worked. Ouput: deliver -- version: 275594 Module 'officecfg' delivered successfully. 1 files copied, 247 files unchanged *Then change to the instsetoo module and call build, then install.* I dont need to do build -all here do I? I just used build, and it did so. 3)After installing when I run, the software and press ctrl+T nothing happens. Could you please tell me where I'm going wrong?

The page does seem to be outdated to me (considering some folder name and syntax of files do not match with the guide, though i may be wrong), I was wondering if there was a better source to learn from. I'm reasonably comfortable with c/c++ , and am pretty active in competitive programming, but developments new for me , so any help is appreciated. Also, if possible could you direct me to modules using c/c++ specifically? Im open to learning new languages, but to start with I would prefer working in a familiar environment. Hi Pranet, Welcome to the Apache OpenOffice project! I'd recommend taking a look at our New Volunteer orientation pages for some useful background on the project and how it works: http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/ The page on getting started with development is the key one: http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/intro-development.html That will get you started on downloading the source code and doing your first build of OpenOffice. Getting a build running on Linux is pretty easy. Windows takes a bit more effort to set up the pre-reqs. (I've never done a Mac build, but I hear it is easy as well). Either way, give it a try and post further messages if you get stuck. Regards, -Rob Thank You

We send new developers to this page, which shows them how to get started with their first build: http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/intro-development.html Of course I know http://openoffice.apache.org/get-involved.html, but to me that all sounds bureaucratic and not very inviting. I think we (additionally) need an alternative approach, let's call it Easy Patches. My experience (as a not-developer, but engaged QA member) is that smaller UI-patches are a nice way to get some first experience with th code of the project; And mentoring for newbies does not cost too much time, a simple you find the code in xy area and a review of the patch should be enough in most cases. We have something like this as well. We use the developer difficulty field in Bugzilla to mark bugs that are easy or simple. These are the ones we point new developers to. Examples for bugs what might need an easy patch might be these [1], I think there are a lot more. Some of these might be candidates for easy hacks. I'll take a look. A part of this idea is to create a short introduction in the Wiki with an automatically generated list of such promising Easy Patch Bug reports, some developers willing to mentor and a very short instruction how to start some first steps to create a patch. If we do it via Bugzilla then getting a report is easy. In fact it can be a simple link to a query, yes? Regards, -Rob Ideas, concerns, interest to support something like this?

Time traveling files
We see such reports in the forum from time to time (and I experienced that once in the past): a file saved and then the day after you see that the file reverted to a previous version. The last topic here: https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7t=67566 OP raises a clever possibility IMHO: could the first backup file be somehow put aside and not updated at each manual save and then after a crash (or not, maybe an OS problem) replace the last saved version? Reverting it to an old version? Hagar - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
