Introduction
Hello, everyone! My name is Jack Chin. I'm from China. I am very interested in openoffice and an old user of it. I am especially interested in 3d graphic part because I am going to do some serious job on these aspects. So how could I select a module and where to start, I am a little confused.

Re: target.mk and default make target.
Thanks andre and herbert for the fast reply. genPO: .ROOT gives a circular dependency, which is understandable when I read startup genPO: .INIT works but does not make the application. genPO: $(TARGET) also does not work. Somehow replacing $(TARGET) might the the easiest solution. Why do I have a feeling of slowly getting to know the build system internally.

Password protected Word Documents
Dear all, We are/were using MS Office2003. We are currently changing some workstations to OpenOffice. Our integration to OpenOffice is going very well but we are experiencing some problems. Word Documents that are password protected can only be read, not changed. It is possible to save it to an .ODT and then we can work with it but since Word can't read .ODT files, it's a bit of a problem for us since not all of of our colleagues are working with OpenOffice. I have read on the internet that there are many people with the same problem and for some time also. WIll there be an update for it???

bug with FDF
Hello, this small mail to report a bug. I work under Ubuntu. Is it just Apache OpenOffice or it just Evince? I don't know. I don't know if it's only on Ubuntu . I created a form that I exported to FDF. no problem. When I open it with Evince to fill, the list fields are blank but it works (in invisible). When moving the cursor to change the value, it changes, but it is not obvious without seeing anything;) Sylvain DENIS AOO Belgium - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org

For example, calculation of PMT needs expm1 and log1p, or calculation of LINEST needs lot of matrix calculation. It is not impossible to calculate this with Java, but who will do it? And when you use constant expected values, from where do you get them and how to ensure, that they are valid? Just one simple question, how do you do manually today ? use the same constants. I use my MuPad 3.1 and sometimes calculate values on http://www.wolframalpha.com/ Or I compare the values to those from Gnumeric and Excel. Having the same value does not mean that they are correct, but the other way round, having different values means that I have to investigate it.

Re: Use GDB but no debugging symbols found
when you build something with gcc with -g option, gdb will find debugging symbols.

Should download pages *require* Javascript?
The download page at present requires Javascript. Without Javascript, there is no obvious way to download AOO 4.0 at all. Note that the page http://www.openoffice.org/download/other.html also requires Javascript! It's nice to be able to use Javascript to guess which download the user wants, but I don't think that this convenience should be at the expense of preventing users from finding the download link if they don't have Javascript (or they have a broken version of Javascript). How about having drop-down lists for the OS and Language? Javascript could be used to preset the values, but at least the user would remain in control, e.g. if the Javascript failed to recognise their system or they wanted to download a different language from the one supported by their browser. Whatever method is chosen, I think it should be possible to download AOO without the use of Javascript. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org

For example, calculation of PMT needs expm1 and log1p, or calculation of LINEST needs lot of matrix calculation. It is not impossible to calculate this with Java, but who will do it? And when you use constant expected values, from where do you get them and how to ensure, that they are valid? Just one simple question, how do you do manually today ? use the same constants. I use my MuPad 3.1 and sometimes calculate values on http://www.wolframalpha.com/ Or I compare the values to those from Gnumeric and Excel. Having the same value does not mean that they are correct, but the other way round, having different values means that I have to investigate it. We should not try to invent a total new road, just do what we do today more efficiently. Suggestions? If there are a *lot* of similar calculations that need to be tested, then it might be worth investing some time looking at at ways to expresss these simply as a script, and then write a parser to drive the existing test code from the script, rather than having to update the Java test code. The advantage would be that just about anyone can create test cases, and they are easy to check by hand. However the parser may be a lot of work; I don't know. Maybe there is already a suitable script language which already has suitable examples? Also there are various script interpreters that already undestand some calculations, for example Commons JEXL. It should be possible to use them to check the test cases, and possibly even use as a basis for parsing the test cases.

My 2nd try was: - open the website in Firefox - make a selection of the image using the mouse - hit keys Ctrl-C - open an empty presentation document - hit keys Ctrl-V -- nothing happens (the same happens in OOo 3.3).

It takes some time to download the image from the internet - I also had to allow the soffice.bin process to access the internet.

I think we have a regression here. Steps: 1. Load Impress, Load Browser to http://www.openoffice.org 2.

In AOO 4.0.0 the image pastes in as a solid black box in Firefox, but pastes in correctly in I.E. The same version of Firefox (23.0.1) was used in both tests.

Pootle User Guide progress
Hi, my draft on http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Talk:Pootle_User_Guide progresses. It is not completed, but I have integrated all still relevant parts from http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Pootle_User_Guide. I now want to move the content from the talk page to the real page, replacing its current content. Any objections? The content is already very large for a single page. So I want to follow Andreas suggestion to divide it in several pages. That can be done by transferring some content to independent other pages or by creating subpages. What do you like more? I do not own the text. Feel free to change or add content.

Can anyone enlighten me what the phrase is intended to mean here? I idea behind this wording is to express the bi-directional way: a) You can download extensions/templates from other users and use them in your OpenOffice. b) But you can also create own extensions/templates and upload them to share with other users. Of course I don't know if this is good English language. However, it seems you have already changed the wording. ;-) I hope it's still fitting, otherwise you can change it.

Re: Reporting a problem with the OpenOffice website
Thanks a lot for your data. The problem was that Polish is no supported language for the AOO 4.0 release. However, it was tried to assemble a download link with LANG_ISO = pl. This wasn't working and therefore the error. This should be fixed now. You should see the green download box. When clicking you will be redirected to the native language webpage where you can download AOO 3.4.1. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
