------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Dec 4 11:41:42 +0000 2008 ------- biffdump.cxx is dead for a long time. If you like this old thing, you will like the following even more: The new dumper is located in the oox module (oox/inc/oox/dump and oox/source/dump). Please copy this module somewhere. In product builds you need to touch oox/inc/oox/dump/dumperbase.hxx and build oox with debug flag (OSL_DEBUG_LEVEL=1 or =2), because the dumper is stripped in builds with OSL_DEBUG_LEVEL=0. The BIFF filter in sc calls this dumper via API (see sc/source/filter/excel/excel.cxx#76). To use it you need an environment variable pointing to the dumper configuration file: setenv OOO_BIFFDUMPER=<path-to-oox-module>/source/dump/biffdumper.ini then start the office with this variable. Similar for other formats: setenv OOO_XLSBDUMPER=<path-to-oox-module>/source/dump/xlsbdumper.ini for all Excel2007 files (XML and BIFF12). setenv OOO_PPTXDUMPER=<path-to-oox-module>/source/dump/pptxdumper.ini for all Powerpoint2007 files (XML files and templates). The dumper extracts the storages and all substreams to your file system beside the original file. E.g., /some/path/test.xls creates a directory /some/path/test.xls.dump/ with all extracted original substreams and substorages. If the extracted streams can be dumped, they will, so you will see e.g. the original binary /some/path/test.xls.dump/Workbook and a text file /some/path/test.xls.dump/Workbook.dump For XML files, the dumper will extract the ZIP storage too, and will pretty-print the XML streams into the *.dump files. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
