------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Mar 17 11:36:44 +0000 2008 ------- ab->amdx4: Unfortunately I don't really understand your idea. You want to mix different interpreters at runtime?! If yes, do you really expect this could ever work? I don't. If no, I don't see which of the problems I've mentioned above would be solved by this. Of course if a new system was de- veloped this would be done besides the old first, but this is only develo- pement tactics and no solution for the real problems. ab->kpalagin: It's not as easy. Nobody can guarantee that the happy life status will ever be reached. It could easily end up in endlessly fixing compatibility problems. Believe me, it's hard enough to make minor chan- ges to the parser - as I'm just trying at the moment - without breaking anything. Rewriting the whole system including all the little bugs old programs now may depend on would be much worse. Besides this it's also a question of priority. The effort for rewriting the complete OOo Basic system would be huge. I guess, it could easily re- quire 12 months or more. First, I simply don't have this time. Second I doubt that such an effort is justified for one single issue. The OOoBasic performance is weak, but obviously it's not too weak for the most cases. The real life does not consist out of benchmarks and nobody uses OOo Ba- sic for number crunching. Usually it's used to handle dialog events and access the OOo API that often isn't too fast either. In most cases it does not matter if a Button handler needs 0.000001 or 0.001 seconds to be executed. In case a user really needs performance it will be better anyway to create an extension, e.g. using Java. So if we put it on 3.x it wouldn't change much as it surely would be set to 4.x some day. Anyone who sees different priorities here is free of course to start a SuperBasic project. Just don't expect me to do the work then... :-) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
