Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Change to Base Guide Supplemental to include Firebird engine example files
Hi Drew, I have migated many of the databases to Firebird but havent translated these databases to English. The main problem is to migrate the queries and the views. But there is another discussion to set creation of Firebird back to experimental, because there are many bugs and nobody, who has time to fix these bugs: http://document-foundation-mail-archive.969070.n3.nabble.com/About-putting-Firebird-creation-option-experimental-td4274028.html I will change the content of the Base-Handbuch a little bit, because there are many people, who have started with Firebird, which is described as the future of LO-Base there. But there is nearly no developement the last year and the bugs are almost the same. So I won't recommend people to change to Firebird.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Re: Change to Base Guide Supplemental to include Firebird engine example files
Drew, Doing that for BG7.0 is a good idea. I assume you are keeping notes on what to do to fix up those things which would not migrate automagically. Might be a useful appendix to the book? Or... something.

Leave the files in the Base Guide 6.2 folder untouched. Create a Base Guide 7.0 instead which supplemental/hsql and supplemental/firebird folders and I suppose for the moment nothing else. I think that makes more sense. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: documentation+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
[libreoffice-documentation] Change to Base Guide Supplemental to include Firebird engine example files
Howdy, As you know starting with 6.4 both the HSQL and Firebird embedded databases are supported by default in the application. It seemed like a good idea to begin by offering the same set of example databases using a Firebird RDBMS as currently exist for HSQLdb. I've add Robert G. to CC on this email because it could be that he has already done what I've just started. Two days ago I started the conversion of the set of files to Firebird. The initial step was to run each through the Migration assistant, this rendered all files with migrated data tables. Now comes the task of fixing up those things which would not migrate automagically. Some views in a few of the files, queries and embedded SQL in components and macros. What I propose is to create two folders in the supplemental (HSQL and Firebird) under the 6.2 guide section each folder holding like named odb files, even though I don't expect the 6.2 guide will mention them - this way they are available for anyone to compare one against the other. I thought I'd start by putting this batch of files, as is, to the Firebird folder with a calc file listing which are finished and which still need work. If there is no objection.

Hi, I've added BH6200-Preface_PK_DEL_PK_JHW_PK_RW_20200223.odt with refreshed screen shot into the Feedback folder. I guess the text at page 6 should be changed as this manual (will) only contains windows screenshots. /Rob -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: documentation+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
