[dev] Info: potential SDK changes for OO.org 3.2
Hi, the SDK contains many examples showing the usage of the API etc. The examples got not really maintained and the workload for testing them is high. Some time in the past i have already mentioned that the idea is to remove some of the examples from the SDK. Mainly examples written in Java that are now available as NetBeans projects and that can be used instead. The advantage of the NetBeans projects is that you can easier browse the code and debug the examples directly from NetBeans. The removed examples (in the original structure) can be stored for potential use. Well the idea still is to provide the examples as Eclipse projects as well, or as MSDEV projects converted to C++, or Python? Volunteers are welcome! A further advantage of having the examples standalone and documented in the wiki is that the community can easier help to improve the examples. you can comment them on the related discussion page, can improve the code or the documentation etc. We now have enough experienced API users that can help in this area ;-) Anyway nothing is decided yet and the SDK build system will remain in the SDK independent of the examples. That means your own solutions based on the SDK build env will still work. The main reason for this email is that i would like to ask if somebody has concerns about this planned change. If so please let me know and let us continue further discussion on d...@api.openoffice.org. By the way QA volunteers for the SDK examples or the SDK in general are welcome. If you are interested to help in this area please let me know. Regards Juergen - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.org
Re: [dev] MediaWiki *import* function ?
Hi, There is an underdevelopment extension that converts MediaWiki markup to OpenDocument Text format (.odt) Extension:OpenDocument Export (Release status: beta) http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:OpenDocument_Export T. J. Frazier wrote: Do you think it might be useful, to consider a two-step conversion process, using XML as the intermediate step? That is, instead of "ODF <==> Wiki", we could have "ODF <==> XML", and "Wiki <==> XML". @TJ: That is a beautiful implementation. But, I am afraid, it might not be useful, I think. The advantage I see is the division of labor. Both groups (MW and OO.o) would likely see those transformations as, "not very efficient, but relatively simple". Neither group would have to deal with each other's oddities, only their own. I can agree with lesser amount of labor. But its complexity and less reproductivity might make it less interesting, though. Possible user scenario which I probably want to have for the interoperability between OpenOffice.org and MediaWiki: (Writer to MediaWiki) 1. On writer, select a portion of or entire document and copy it. 2. Ctrl-N to start an empty Writer document. 3. Ctrl-Shift-V to paste special with a choice of MediaWiki format. 4. Ctrl-A to select all and copy it. 5. In a text field of MediaWiki, paste it. (MediaWiki to Writer) 1. Click on a special link next to 'Edit.' 2. OpenOffice.org automatically starts and draws the target page or section in a web browser. 3. Select it and copy it. 4. On Writer, paste it.

Re: [dev] Sections and appending documents
Hey, I was thinking about first writing the original document to disk and later if an unmerge is needed to just use "loadFromURL" with the path of the original document to reload it.

Re: [dev] MediaWiki *import* function ?
Hi, tora - Takamichi Akiyama wrote: Hi, Rich wrote: I immensily enjoy the MediaWiki export function, but in order to make it the perfect WYSIWIG MediaWiki editor, it would also need a MediaWiki *import* function. Is anything like that currently planned ? If I tried to realize such a function that converts MediaWiki's format into OpenOffice.org format, there were some ideas: Idea 1: Implement it in the MediaWiki as its extension. Idea 2: Realize it as an offline tool. Idea 3: Incorporate it in the OpenOffice.org as an import filter or in a copy-and-paste function of OpenOffice.org. IMHO, idea 1 would be the easiest, reliable, robust way. With an extension of the MediaWiki, a link labeled "download this page as an OpenOffice.org file" might be one of the possible user interface implementations. The reason is that MediaWiki itself knows how to interpret MediaWiki format and how to produce its corresponding HTML format. So, what we might need to work to realize it would be just to write a code producing ODF format instead of HTML format. If we had implemented it in our OpenOffice.org, we would forever have to follow up MediaWiki's versions. Its history shows that its format has been being revised version by version and consequently it is easy to infer that its format would be continuously revised in the future. So, it is a MidiaWiki extension exporting its Wiki page into ODF format. I don't know if it is already available or not. :-> Regards, Tora @Tora: thank you for the fine insight, as to where most of the problems lie. Do you think it might be useful, to consider a two-step conversion process, using XML as the intermediate step? That is, instead of "ODF <==> Wiki", we could have "ODF <==> XML", and "Wiki <==> XML". The advantage I see is the division of labor. Both groups (MW and OO.o) would likely see those transformations as, "not very efficient, but relatively simple".
