Re: [api-dev] Possible bug with MySQL and OOo ResultSet

Re: [api-dev] Possible bug with MySQL and OOo ResultSet
Hi Frank, Sergio, It would appear that the 3.51 ODBC driver only supports dynamic cursors in FORWARD_ONLY and STATIC modes if this page is correct : http://www.verbose.fr/mysql_5.0/mysql-connectors.html 25.1.14.2. Est-ce que MyODBC accepte les curseurs dynamiques? Oui. MyODBC 3.51 supporte les curseurs dynamiques avec les modes Forward-only et static. A cause des problèmes de performances, le pilote ne supporte pas cette fonctionnalité par défaut. Vous pouvez l'activer en spécifiant l'option de connexion OPTION=32 ou en cliquant dans l'option Enable Dynamic Cursor dans le panneau de configuration DSN. For those who don't speak French : Does MyODBC accept dynamic cursors? Yes. MyODBC 3.51 supports dynamic cursors in Forward-Only and Static modes For performance reasons, the driver does not enable this functionality by default. It can be activated by specifying the connection option OPTION=32 or by clicking on the Enable Dynamic Cursor tickbox in the DSN configuration panel.

[api-dev] OOoBean: possible Bug with OOoBean.loadFromURL()
Hey guys,
OOoBean.loadFromURL() is acting strange for different URL formats.
//fileURL = E:\Test.ods
String fileURL = file.getAbsolutePath();
URL = Tools.convertToFileURL(fileURL);
try
{
PropertyValue[] loadProperties = new PropertyValue[1];
loadProperties[0] = new PropertyValue(ReadOnly, 0, new
Boolean(false), PropertyState.DIRECT_VALUE);
aBean.loadFromURL(URL, loadProperties);
In this snippet, a valid fileURL is created by a method of mine to
ensure there are no backslashes in the file URL. ( E:\Test.ods ==
E:/Test.ods )
If I'm exectuing the code, all works fine and i can work with the document.
If I'm changing the code to
//fileURL = E:\Test.ods
String fileURL = file.getAbsolutePath();
URL = file:/// + fileURL;
try
{
PropertyValue[] loadProperties = new PropertyValue[1];
loadProperties[0] = new PropertyValue(ReadOnly, 0, new
Boolean(false), PropertyState.DIRECT_VALUE);
aBean.loadFromURL(URL, loadProperties);
the document will be loaded as well. That's some nice feature of the
loadFromURL() function to not enforce converting backslashes. BUT it is
then opened in read only mode. Which in my opinion is strange and not
intuitive for users of the api.
At first I had the second snippet implemented and everything was fine,
because I worked with templates only, but after opening normal documents
that read-only error occured. After some rewriting I found the problem,
but I think this should be documented at least. If not fixed.
Except someone can explain me, why OOoBean should open fileUrls which
aren't correct but prevent modifiying.

Steffen Börsig

Re: [api-dev] OOoBean: possible Bug with OOoBean.loadFromURL()
Hi Steffen,
it is no specific problem of the bean. The bean calls internally
loadComponentFromURL(...) and there is no difference. The behaviour
sounds indeed strange and maybe somebody can comment it.
Anyway using a valid and correct Url is always a good idea.

file:///E:\Test.ods is not a valid URL to denote Windows pathname
E:\Test.ods (file:///E:/Test.ods would be correct). I vaguely
remember that the implementation of loadComponentFromURL indeed does
somewhat strange things upon such invalid input (which would explain the
read-only status; maybe there is already an issue for this?).
(By the way, E:/Test.ods is also not a valid URL to denote Windows
pathname E:\Test.ods; it is an URL of the---unknown---schema e. That
loadFromURL happens to work as expected for such invalid input is a
sad consequence of try to guess what the client wants software.)

Yes, I agree. The problem, however, is probably along the lines that loadComponentFromURL is also used to load whatever the user types on the command line or in the file open dialog etc., where the smart logic to understand that E:\Test.ods is a Windows pathname while file:///E:/Test.ods is a URL is called for.
