::
:: For 1.8.0, these tasks are remaining. Volunteers needed to finish them.
:: They must already be familiar with the code area and the functionality.
::
:: In the past, I've done this sort of thing myself, but currently I have not
:: got enough time over and above fixing the reported bug and the overal
:: release issues. Someone else must do these:
::
:: Task 0:
::
:: For more ambitious developers, OpenOffice.org needs functionality for the
:: following:
::
:: (a) - Changing the type of a table column:
:: - type changes between TINYINT, SMALLINT and INTEGER can be performed by
:: first doing a range check on all existing values in the table (when
:: narrowing) and then modifying the metada only.
:: - all other type changes require building a copy of the whole table and then
:: dropping the new table in place of the old one. This is done already in the
:: code I wrote for adding and removing a primary key or for adding / removing
:: a column. You need to write code based on existing code as much as possible
:: (do not change existing code) so that I can easily review the work and the
:: likelihood of side-effects is minimal.
::
:: (b) - Removing the INDENTITY attribute from a table (while preserving the
:: PRIMARY KEY constraint) or adding an IDENTITY attribute to an existing
:: INTEGER or BIGINT primary key. The first one is solely a change in table
:: metadata, while the second one requires finding the max value of the
:: existing column before adding the IDENTITY.
::
:: ------------
:: Task 1:
::
:: DatabaseManagerSwing - The method below is not JDK 1.3 compatible. We need a
:: workaround and if it is not available, conditional compilation.
::
:: Code to modify: DatabaseManagerSwing.java and possibly build.xml
::
:: SpinnerNumberModel is introduced in 1.4
:: According to:
:: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/swing/SpinnerNumberModel.html
:: SpinnerNumberModel model = new SpinnerNumberModel(50, 0, 100, 1);
:: This model inherits a ChangeListener. The ChangeListeners are notified
:: whenever
:: the model's value, stepSize, minimum, or maximum properties changes.
:: Since:1.4
::
:: --------------
:: Task 2:
::
:: Text table support Update
::
:: Bob has updated the code to accept new line characters inside quoted
:: strings. At the moment the program blocks writing new rows containing new
:: line characters. Review and possible fix is needed in this area.
::
:: ------------
:: Task 3:
::
:: Building for and running on JDK 1.1 target:
::
:: In the build process for JDK 1.1 targets, you now use switchtojdk1target (or
:: something similar) before building with JDK 1.3. You can no longer build
:: with JDK 1.1 itself due to its compiler's deficiencies. We need testers to
:: test all aspects of the code when you run the jar in JDK 1.1
