Before improving the messages and taking another run at the Java explanation on the web site, I ran more tests to be certain I knew the circumstances for one of the messages that is tied to SQL Exceptions.
One thing I noticed (which was useful for seeing how the different messages arise) is that the default embedded database produced by OpenOffice Base is HSQLDB, which is 100% Java-required. According to the HSQLDB site, there was collaboration on upgrading the version of HSQLDB, <http://hsqldb.org/web/openoffice.html>. That's from November 2011 though. I have three questions: 1. What happened with regard to the improvements with regard to the version of HSQLDB used? 2. What happened with regard to being able to make an HSQLDB for local use but external to the .ODB file? 3. Is there any effort at any stage of development to use a local but non-Java-requiring database? This isn't going to matter with regard to immediately cleaning up the messages and the explanation on the web site. I'm just curious because Base is a place that might have some relatively isolatable maintenance work (or maybe not). - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Dennis E.

WEB SITE QUESTION: For page-specific images that I want to include under content/xx/java/, can I simply put them in that directory, since they are only used by the web page(s) there? I am thinking that will work perfectly for localization, because the localized versions of those folders can replace the images made from screen captures with equivalent ones made from the same-language UI. And for starters, copies of the xx/java/ images can continue to be used until localization-friendlier ones are supplied. Is this a good way to approach this? Is there different guidance with regard to images having such local context? - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Marcus [mailto:marcus.m...@wtnet.de] Sent: Tuesday, December 30, 2014 07:28 To: dev@openoffice.apache.org Subject: Re: Explaining Java (was RE: Java 32) Am 12/30/2014 03:54 PM, schrieb Dennis E.
