------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Apr 1 04:43:45 -0800 2005 ------- Type info Title New document events Posted by [EMAIL PROTECTED] Affected ,- Effective from fwkfinal1 Summary Two new document events are available now, their API names are "OnCreate" (for new, empty documents) and "OnLoadFinished" (for documents loaded from a file or stream). They are sent by every document, regardless if it is opened/created with or without a view, hidden or visible. OTOH the "old", well known events "OnNew" and "OnLoad" are sent only for visible documents and they are sent not before the document has become visible. Description In OOo1.x the "OnNew"/"OnLoad" events where sent asynchronously (means: a user event was posted that on execution notified all listeners). So if you open a document via API, modify it and then close it you get the close event (because it must be sent synchronously) before the open event (and BTW the document is already gone when you get this event). We tried to fix this by sending the OnNew/OnLoad events synchronously, but then they arrived at the listeners before the document window was shown. Basic macros bound to those events now got the wrong parent, dialogs asking for input became useless because you can't see the underlying template etc., so we had to go back to asychronous notification (the window manager doesn't allow to force a window to appear on the screen immediately). The API problem can be fixed only by introducing the new events and declaring the point in time when the "OnNew/OnLoad" events arrive as undefined (and in case of our API example they will not arrive at all!). Any consumer of document events now must decide if it reacts on the "old" events (that are sent out only for documents that are made visible) or the "new" events (that are sent out for every created document, even for hidden or embedded ones or for documents as data source etc.). As it looks no code has to be changed because the handling of the OnNew/OnLoad events now is the same as in OOo1.1. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
