do that mean that there can not been linked (with the API) to libraries
stored in a Document ?
No, I don't think so. CVS is a revision tracking system. Since .od?
files are generally zipped, CVS would likely treat them as binaries. If
you want to be able to do a cvs diff on your macros, then you'd need to
store the text of the macros outside the .od? file so that cvs can track
the changes line by line. Ditto, the content of the .od? file.
CVS does not handle binary files all that well and runs a fairly good
chance of completely mucking them up unless you give it special
configuration for handling them.
It sounds like the poster in the forum is talking about issues with
storing OOo documents in a cvs repository with that comment.
Zipped archive file formats are not very conducive to inclusion in
revision control software. (Neither are directory bundle formats, though
they're easier to work with.)
Cheers,
Jason
