Help with options page for extension
Hello, I need help for developing options page for my extension. I have created a .xdl file using the openoffice dialog editor. Now, I plan to implement an event handler by implementing XContainerWindowEventHandler interface. To load the GUI of an xdl file, do I also need to implement the service to ContainerWindowProvider? Also, how do I link the .xdl file to a the EventHandler Implementation? I have looked at the example provided in the devguide. It is very unclear. My question is how do I link events to my buttons. I have 3 buttons - edit, delete and add. all three buttons are of type - ok. How do I link different buttons to different methods? In the example, the sMethodName = external_event. What triggers external_event? Please lead me to a better source? -- Rajath S, M.Sc(Hons.) Physics, Birla Institute of Technology and Science - Pilani, Pilani

AOO in the Linux distros
Now that AOO 4.0 is successfully launched, perhaps the time has come to try to get it into the Linux distros. At present if one selects OpenOffice in the distros I know, one gets LibreOffice.

Steps I have followed to build (http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step#Windows_7) 1) I have downloaded source code directly from http://www.openoffice.org/download/other.html#tested-sdk .

Re: Three possible issues in AOO 4.0 en_UK
Anyway, easier than posting in the forum is sharing the files in Dropbox: - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30674540/sinonimos_2013.rtf - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30674540/sinonimos_2013.png The first file is around 3 kB big and the dates and number of synonyms are highlighted like you can see in the PNG.

I can't elaborate much more on that statement. http://www.openoffice.org/download/common/instructions.html When we released 3.4., we found some additional installation instructions which are included in the wiki version of the Linux install page (which now also needs some slight updating): http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/FAQ/Installation/How_do_I_install_OpenOffice.org_on_Linux%3F#Where_can_I_find_more_information_on_installing_OpenOffice_on_Linux.3F I would suggest if you find tutorials, or create tutorials yourself, for any Linux distros, that you put links to them on the above wiki page.

[DISCUSS] added security to avoid changes in artifacts.
Hi. I have followed the discussions in here, and have seen a number of not wanted changed in our important artifacts happen. I think it is important, that items like our logos, release notes etc. cannot be changed by accident. I believe it happens by accident and that could avoided with a simple measure. I am normally strong against limitations, but I would like to suggest that these items are moved to one (or more) subdirs, where the commit right is restricted e.x. to PMC members or even less. Doing so will not prohibit anybody from making their changes but simply avoid that the changes are product wide. thoughts ? rgds jan I.

One of the suggestions floated was to move the Release notes to the developer cwiki that is write restricted to committers, but can be read by anyone. This would appear to be a viable alternative at least for items lke Release Notes that need to be tied to a particular release, but also have the potential to change without a new release. Another possibility that could be used is the setting of restrictions on pages of the cwiki. A quick review of the help show that a Space Admnistrator can define set up a structure for a limited number of people to be able to set view or edit restrictions on a page that will be inherited by all child pages as well. This scenario would work well for the Release Notes. Once the release occurs the Notes are edit restricted to a defined group that can edit them if necessary.

I think that there are a few things to think about. We can all understand when RTC and CTR are in effect. These are different in different systems. We are talking about a situation where a commit was made that was not acceptable. Since it was in svn we can always revert. In other systems we have other means of restoration. I don't think we need extra security. We may need a review of our systems to know what is in effect. WIth that in hand we can discuss what policy changes to make. Whatever changes might be made they should be the smallest possible and kept simple.

Re: [PROPOSAL] New other.html for all possible download links
Hi Marcus, Very cool! I have some minor points Important Notes: • A language pack is not a release for its own and has to be installed over a stable release with the same version number and platform. It contains resource files for a specific language and platform to show, e.g., menus, dialogs, error messages in your language. It may contain translated Help content. Language packs are created if at least 80% of the user interface (UI) is translated. In case it is not fully localized, some elements of the UI or help topics will display in English as default language. (1) The first bullet needs editing as 80% is not the policy, the policy is 100%. (2) Add a bullet: * If your language is not listed here, please some text about connecting to our l10n ML, etc. possibly http://openoffice.apache.org/native-lang.html • If your operating system is not listed here, or you need a special version of Apache OpenOffice, please see our list of third-party ports and distributions. (3) Similarly the further notes needs both an Apache OpenOffice and 4.0 update. • Please read here further important notes (4) Shouldn't we order the columns by popularity? Windows, MacOSX, Linux (don't know the popular order..)

I can't elaborate much more on that statement. http://www.openoffice.org/download/common/instructions.html When we released 3.4., we found some additional installation instructions which are included in the wiki version of the Linux install page (which now also needs some slight updating): http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/FAQ/Installation/How_do_I_install_OpenOffice.org_on_Linux%3F#Where_can_I_find_more_information_on_installing_OpenOffice_on_Linux.3F I would suggest if you find tutorials, or create tutorials yourself, for any Linux distros, that you put links to them on the above wiki page. Correct however in the mind of many people they would like to see a 4.0 instructions. Even if 99.9% de same. Should we just change it to the 4.0 release? Even then, the blog will highlight these links. The Install link above the wiki link specifically addresses 4.0. The wiki page can be changed by anyone with a wiki account to reflect 4.0. Or a new 4.0 page added with whatever changes anyone feels are needed. I remember OSDir - OpenShot used to do this, screenshot guides of installation of major distros and apps like OpenOffice, however there is some questions on trying OpenOffice 4.0 while keeping LibO without risk. There's no reason why we can't do this. It just takes someone to make it happen. That's what the wiki is for.

One should get a clear choice, not a default substitution. The problem is mostly the lack of volunteers which are willing to package and maintain AOO among these distros' developers. Gentoo has a precompiled version of AOO packaged: http://packages.gentoo.org/package/app-office/openoffice-bin Besides that, there exist some user maintained packages for Ubuntu, Arch, Slackware and other distros.

I have some minor points Important Notes: • A language pack is not a release for its own and has to be installed over a stable release with the same version number and platform. It contains resource files for a specific language and platform to show, e.g., menus, dialogs, error messages in your language. It may contain translated Help content. Language packs are created if at least 80% of the user interface (UI) is translated. In case it is not fully localized, some elements of the UI or help topics will display in English as default language. (1) The first bullet needs editing as 80% is not the policy, the policy is 100%. right, I've copied it from the normal other.html. (2) Add a bullet: * If your language is not listed here, pleasesome text about connecting to our l10n ML, etc. possibly http://openoffice.apache.org/native-lang.html • If your operating system is not listed here, or you need a special version of Apache OpenOffice, please see our list of third-party ports and distributions. I've added some text and mentioned here the 100% rule. (3) Similarly the further notes needs both an Apache OpenOffice and 4.0 update. • Please read here further important notes Also right. I will do this as a separate task. (4) Shouldn't we order the columns by popularity? Windows, MacOSX, Linux (don't know the popular order..) Ask 5 people an you will get 6 opinions. ;-) I can sort it via alphabetically order. But then Windows is at the end which is somehow also not the best solution. Hm.

But compare the link you provided with the original one for the same dictionary before the site migration: http://extensions.openoffice.org/project/es_AR-dicts It seems *all* the addresses changed on the site upgrade and now it's a small challenge to find them again. In fact, I started this thread after someone from the Recursos Lingüísticos project said on l10n list he cannot find their own extensions to update to the last dictionary version! It seems the identifier for the extension is now the extension title instead of the original label. The old dictionaries addresses are back!

Anyway I could easily translate articles from English to Portuguese and any other tasks that might involve reading or writing in English, Portuguese and Spanish. I am looking forward to hearing your comments and suggestions. Best Regards, Adroaldo Prado.
