------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Jun 9 08:46:18 -0700 2005 ------- hmm... what I'm seeing is that the binfilter (com.sun.star.comp.sfx2.BinaryFormatDetector) typedetection gets called first on an unsuffixed file and its ::detect gets the clipboard id of the file (correctly as the msword type) and uses this to get a filter, and the writer typedetection service doesn't get a look in. The thing is that there are three filters writer_MS_WinWord_5/writer_MS_WinWord_60 and writer_MS_Word_97 which have this clipboard id. So it looks like it grabs the first one which is writer_MS_WinWord_5. It's worth saying that all these three filters are all implemented by the same code in sw/source/filter/ww8 so it's probably feasible in writer to work around the problem by re-detecting what the format really is when given a MSWordDoc type. But it looks sort of fragile if the binfilter detect is going to operate on ClipBoard id's when a single ClipBoard id could map to multiple filters. So I don't know if the real fix is to a) not have the binfilter detect get called first, or b) remove the MSWordDoc clipboard id for the non word97 formats in ./registry/modules/org/openoffice/TypeDetection/Types/fcfg_writer_types.xcu, or c) make them different for different filters to have a single filter to clipboard id mapping d) have writer re-detect when given one of the three word filternames which one to really use. In which case it's worth mentioning that writer_MS_WinWord_5 is not a storage format, only a stream format. A nasty quick fix patch for binfilter attached. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
