Thank You Apache Infrastructure Team
Thanks to the Apache Infrastructure team for all of the work they do to support Apache OpenOffice.org! Specifically, but not an exhaustive list. Joe Schaefer for Apache CMS and OpenOffice.org Zone transfer work. If you are subscribed to Infrastructure@i.a.o you will have seen zone files for openoffice.org! Gavin McDonald is working on the MediaWiki and Forum migrations. This week is particularly busy! He also has helped with Blog admin and the Confluence wikis. Mark Thomas for the completed Bugzilla migration and further support. I am sure that other members of the Apache Infrastructure Team have contributed, but not as visibly. If you know, then please add to this thread of thanks. Best Regards, Dave

Starting from scratch would mean to lose a lot of the previos work -- and I really mean lots, which I dare to judge because I spent a lot of time with download.services.openoffice.org. On the other hand, having MirrorBrain at the core of the ASF's mirror system could be interesting for other projects, too. I know closer.cgi but I'm sure that MirrorBrain could serve the ASF well. (Well possible as an addition, rather than a replacement, for a soft transition.) That might outweigh the pain of creating OOo's download service from scratch in a different environment. ... and this the long term goal. The ASF can really benefit from this way of downloading software. Currently you have to choose a mirror, then change to the directory structure where the respective binary is located and finally download it. This is not correct. I have no idea if the ASF can benefit from MirrorBrain or not, but if your justification for such a statement is based on the above erroneous analysis of the current mirror system then I have my concerns. I OK, thats what I've done to come to my point: - browse to http://www.apache.org/; - click on Download top right - choose a mirror - change to the dir structure to your file - now download Is there an easier way to get software? E.g. http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi#apache22 It auto selects the nearest mirror and provides appropriate download links - a single click. Want it pretty with big blue buttons? It's just HTML This was discussed early in the AOOo podlings existence.see archives for.more. I would like us to move on from this Topic, I have said before and I will say it again, ASF Infra will NOT support mirrorbrain. We have one mirror system and it deals with 200 or so projects. OpenOffice project will use the current ASF supported mirror system. End of story. If you see this like black and white then I can do this, too: If we don't get the support that AOO needs then we can outsource the download easily. EOD (yes, this wasn't meant seriously) It's sad that you brush it simply aside without to see the chance to at least try to improve things. Excuse me? I am doing quite a lot already thank you. You do not our infrastructure or how it works, I do. And we are all very thankful for this. This wasn't meant as offense. Sorry if you have understood it this way. Why OOo is special: - OOo 3.3 consists of ~1.000 files with ~70 GB Correct. - in the peak with 300,000 downloads per day That’s fine. The mirrors will handle that. OK, forget the other numbers as of course only this is important for the topic. Even when we won't get back the download numbers in the middle run due to the long silence of the last months and reduce the number by lets say 50% we would be still by far the largest ASF project. Doesn’t give you the right to try and bully me or the rest of the infra team into giving you want you want. In fact, it will have the opposite effect. Stop. I haven't bully you and never the entire infra team. Again, sorry if you have understood it this way. But you are right ... That said, let us get these other migrations done and we can see how/if the previous releases can be integrated. ... currently we have indeed other more important road works on the plan. And we are working on them. The downloads will be sorted don’t worry, but if I can help it, it will be using the same system as all the other projects.

Hello Jürgen and Ariel,
Thanks for your help. I appreciate you want to solve this MacOS issue when

Ariel, the suggested code works :) I am now trying to find a way to send a
byte stream to a printer.
let me see if I get it: you are trying to print arbitrary stuff just
like in this java snippet
http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/print/PrintService.html
Could XPrinterPropertySet.setBinarySetup be used
for this purpose maybe?
this method is for setting the Printer setup (that is, the printer
configuration), not for setting the data to be printed
The com.sun.star.awt.XPrinter service only seems to
support graphical data, am I right?
mmm I've only used this to get the printer name, and then print an OOo
document, via the css.view.XPrintable interface implemented by OOo
documents.
Printing in OOo is well supported for printing *office* documents (not
any data you may want to print, let's say a PDF file, for example. If
you want to print an arbitrary file, let's say a PNG picture, you have
to import it as an OOo Draw document and print that office document;
AFAIK there is now away to then the PNG image directly to the printer
- and this is not wrong, OOo is an office suite, not a printing
application).
On the other hand, looking at the code in
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/incubator/ooo/trunk/main/toolkit/workben/controls.cxx?view=markup#l125
you are able to draw onto a virtual device and print it. See the
attached code, it is Java version of this C++ sample.
Unfortunately this does not work, there is a bug in the implementation:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/incubator/ooo/trunk/main/toolkit/source/awt/vclxprinter.cxx?view=markup#l325
if ( mpListener.get() ) always evaluates to false, that shared pointer
has never been set before. For what I could understand there, it should
be:
if ( mpPrinter.get() )
{
maInitJobSetup = mpPrinter-GetJobSetup();
mpListener.reset( new vcl::OldStylePrintAdaptor( mpPrinter ) );
}
this seems to work... well, the Print dialog shows up now, with the
text drawn onto the virtual device:
http://arielch.fedorapeople.org/images/vclxprinter.png
funny indeed.
In short, print office documents, using the well known interfaces
described in the view module
http://api.openoffice.org/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/view/module-ix.html
http://api.openoffice.org/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/view/XPrintable.html

Seed faults in the Writer GUI
Hi, I am working on testing the OpenOffice Writer GUI for a class project, and I need to seed some faults in the source code (I built OO330_m20 successfully on Ubuntu 10.04 running on VMWare), that could possibly generate some errors related to the Writer GUI. I've been looking through the wiki pages and the source files, but I'm having trouble figuring out which modules in the source code I should be focusing on. Can anyone point me to which files/folders in the source code I should be looking at? Thanks, Wikum

Re: Seed faults in the Writer GUI
I'm looking to add new defects (detecting any existing bugs is a future possibility). So far I've been going through the SRC_ROOT/sw/source/ui folder, which seems like a place to start.

Re: [code] [issue 118517] Twain header update for testing
Hi again; I waited for a while but I didn't get any report on how well (or bad) the new twain header works while building on Windows. I am pretty sure the authors take care of GCC and most commercial compilers so the only special case is mingw32. Ming32 is something that was indeed hacked into our old header so I adapted the code to suit our previous behavior and now that I have something robust I have committed it. I did everything I could to ensure this works but I am not perfect, and there has been little feedback, so please don't panic and let me know if something related with scanners changes. Pedro. --- On Sun, 10/16/11, Pedro Giffuni p...@apache.org wrote: Date: Sunday, October 16, 2011, 8:30 PM Hello; As you might have noticed I have been updating some headers and libraries we use internally. I think it is just logical to want to start working with modern APIs. In the case of TWAIN, this is something that has evolved quite a bit, the new versions add support for UNIX/linux and Win64. Our older version had some support for ming32 that the new header didn't have. I added the mingw32 support but I can't test it because I don't use ming32. Of course, I also can't just break the build to test the patch so I've added it to BZ Bug 118517. Please give it a try and report or send patches through bugzilla: this header could help improve support for modern scanners in the future. cheers. Pedro.
