Hi all,
What is the interface of OOo? More specifically, when OOo is installed
on a computer, what are the files from that installation that are either:
1 Intended to be executed directly by a client (human or program) to
accomplish a certain task.
2 Intended to be registered (typically during installation) with the
operating system or some other external framework, to be executed by the
operating system or external framework upon certain events.
these are good questions, and I fear the answers are unclear and
probably platform dependent. If we ever have the chance, we should clean
this up.
Originally, the user data directory (e.g. ".openoffice") and the
installations top level directory hold symbolic links (at least on
Unix), to the files in the program directory, which were thought to be
the public interface, so this is long ago and the links seem to have
gone ... ;-)
I just skipped through the OOo 2.2 rpms, for whatever reasons, there
seem not to be any system integrations. At least for SO there are some,
integrating SO into the desktop by placing various mime types, menus and
icons at appropriate places, and by placing some links in /usr/bin .
If we don't have any other clue, I suggest starting to actually define,
what the file system interface is, by discussing your list and creating
an appropriate spec may be in the wiki.

Kay
