Hi all!
I am working on my diploma thesis at the Department of Information
Technology of the University of Zurich. The main goal of the project is to
check whether OpenOffice.org Writer can be used as a collaborative editor
for the project TeNDa X (http://www.tendax.net). After having tried to
create a UNO component to catch and set text inputs, we realized that the
API does not have the functionality we need to map both document models of
OpenOffice and the Database we have behind efficiently. So I am now looking
at the native code to analyze where we could add functionality to match our
goals.
My biggest problem at the moment is the time factor. That is why I send
my questions to the mailing list. I apologize by the way to whom these
questions may be boring.
1) I did not find any definitions of the xub... and sal_... classes. For
my purposes the functionality of positioning an insert or a delete in the
class XubString could be relevant. Can those classes be found somewhere or
are they part of a separate library?
2) I have tried to describe some parts of the code particularly
concerning the nodes (SwTxtNode etc.) and the positioning classes (SwPaM
etc.). But I am not sure if my descriptions match with the real
functionality. Are there some models and class descriptions that a newbie
like me could use? I could not find any document concerning this subject on
the web page.
3) Where are the events like keyPressed or Copy&Paste caught and passed
to the Writer module? Is there a centralized interface? I am also interested
in knowing in which cases a node is created, separated in two nodes or
merged into other nodes.
I think that mail is long enough for the moment. Thanks to everyone
taking a look at these questions.
Best Regards
Stéphane Geslin
