Re: EXTERNAL: Re: Building comphelper
Hi David, I just wanted to share the basics of what I have found so far. I still have no idea on how to solve the issue. Any help would be great! Observed Behaviour 1. OpenOffice starts, the splash screen with logo appears and then closes replaced with the full application window and choices for specific OpenOffice projects. 2. Selecting either the Word or Spreadsheet project causes a segmentation fault and closes the application. 3. Following the start of the application with the debugger, we can see the SidebarController is created in a first pass without error (known because first time to this stop point does not error). 4. As the process continues, the SidebarController constructor is called a second time (unknown why, but could be understood with more familiarity with the system). 5. The failure doesn't appear in the constructor, but the trace follows down SidebarController constructor call of WeakReferenceSidebarController WeakController (this); 6. This template definition for WeakController uses ReferenceTemplate::Refrence( interface_type *pInterface) as its definition in ::com::sun::star::uno::Reference.hxx. 7. The function will try to convert the pInterface parameter to a XInterface type called _pInterface. 8. If it succeeds in converting the pInterface to _pInterface then the function will try to acquire a new reference. 9. Assumption: Creating this new reference calls SidebarController::notifyContextChangeEvent with a corrupt or bad rEvent. This assumption is based on the stack where the immediate next routine after the Reference function call is the notifyContextChangeEvent, also while following along in the debugger, the rEvent parameter at this point is already corrupted with the value ERROR stored in the structure. 10. It is later after the notifyContextChangeEvent calls Context and then ustring that the segmentation fault occurs, but I believe the error located in rEvent is what causes this later problem. I haven't fully caught up with everything, but if I had to debug this I'd watch out for exceptions thrown in step 5 and later. In gdb I'd use the command catch throw to find the throwing code. Is there a similar facility in Solaris Studio? Herbert - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org

Hello Rob, I am maintaining the "English Dictionaries" which includes all of them, but I am only improving the en_GB so far. I was able to improve the en_GB because I grabbed it from Mozilla, and British English is my second tongue. I believe all the others that come in the AOO are obfuscated Maybe someone could do the same for en_US? Grab from Mozilla? Can't the original en_US creator provide a clean text one? That way someone could improve it as well using my tool "Proofing Tool GUI" and then I could add it to the OXT. PS-I searched for "naïve" and it is in the en_GB dictionary. So, no problem for British English. Kind regards, Marco A.G.Pinto --- On 21/01/2014 13:13, Rob Weir wrote: Hi Marco, Are you maintaining the en-US dictionary as well?

Re: Are there any legal repercussions for banning users from mailing lists?
Items to ponder: 1. Anyone can sue anyone any time they desire for anything, but, a judge can throw it out and a lawyer will likely not take the case unless they believe that they will win money or the person must be willing to pay for the service. 2. Filing nuisance law suites is usually done by people who have a law background or have spent a lot of time learning the system because a lawyer will usually not take the case and they must have sufficient time to file a complaint that they are able to do without external help from a lawyer. 3. The problem is, if they do take you to court and it makes it to court, if no one shows up, then they win by default. 4. I am not a lawyer, but, I think that even if I have a disability, I will still be kicked out of an establishment if I cause trouble. I knew a guy who was very demanding because of his disability and I was with him when he was kicked out of a restaurant because he caused a huge scene. The other people applauded the manager. None of this was related to his disability, he was just rude, which did not prevent him from claiming otherwise. I am not aware of a disability that causes people to post unrelated rude messages.

Reading between the lines it sounds like she is claiming the mailing list is a place of public accommodation and her disability (which seems to be form of ADHD) prevents her from controlling her conduct on the mailing list. We then banned her from mailing to the private list as well. But now she has started using a new email address, sending more complaints and threatening to report us to the Justice Department in two weeks if we don't allow her back on the users list. PMC members are split on whether to ignore her, engage her, ban her, etc. Note: she has not requested any specific accommodation. She causes others to leave.

Re: Compiling solver in cygwin references missing include folder
Thank you, Herbert and Oliver. Indeed that looks like it will resolve the problem. The About box in Visual Studio 2008 indicated that SP1 was installed for .NET Framework 3.5 (and, I assumed, also for Visual Studio 2008), but comparing the cl link version strings with Oliver's showed that mine was nonetheless an older version. I've now installed SP1 from Herbert's link [2], and I confirm that the folder /cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0/VC/include now indeed has the file unordered_set. I'm currently rerunning the build --all. Will write again if any further problems arise. Regards.

I'm concentrated initially on issues on our most popular pages as well as issues on the template, since the template generates the repeated headers/footers nad navigation on every page. We'll get more 'bang for the buck' if we can get the template perfect. Some of the kinds of issues I'm seeing: 1) The site-search button and input field in the upper right of the template. These were not coordinated in the best way. Since there is no associated label for the input field, I added a title attribute, so what we have now looks like this: div class=topsrchbox input name=resultsPerPage value=40 type=hidden/ input name=q id=query type=text title=search query/ input name=Button value=search type=submit class=topsrchbutton/ /div That means now the screen reader reads the title and converts it as voice output, right? Yes, that's my understanding. When we view the page this is clear from the visual context: a text input next to a button labeled search is for the search query. But the context is not always clear with a screen reader so we need to make it explicit. 2) The home page usesh2 headers to mark the main options on the page, e.g., I want to download OpenOffice. But there is noh1. The doc I read said this inconsistency can confuse navigation via a screen reader. One option might be to make these all beh1 and then adjust the CSS accordingly. Or maybe they should be anul list? I have no made any fix here yet. Simply insert a h1 headline, like: h1How can OpenOffice help you?/h1 However, if there is no need for one, then a hidden h1 could help to solve the confusion but also keep the current webpage conent and style. The hidden attribute seems to look like the best option but maybe not as it seems not to work in MS IE. Could someone test this? h1 hiddenHow can OpenOffice help you/h1 Theh1 would be the parent of all theh2's, including Recent blog posts. So not just the left column. A hiddenh1 might stop the warning message, but I'm to sure it really fixes the problem. But this might be the lesser of the problems. At least we're not inconsistent in our headers, e.g., having anh2 under anh3 or something like that. Or maybe just an empty h1 if this doesn't destroy the layout, like: h1/h1 A h1 tag would create a headline with CSS blue box styling - like you can see here: http://www.openoffice.org/download/checksums.html Even with an empty h1 tag the blue box would be visible. So, if we decide to insert a h1 tag, then with text. You could turn off style with a tag in the h1. Sure, of course. I just hadn't the mood and time to dig into the code what it is. I've added a h1 tag with no text and disabled styles 3) For each of the choices we seem to have two hyperlinks going to the same place: div class=action-help div class=action-text action-link h2a href=/support/I need help with my OpenOffice/a/h2 pa href=/support/Help is at hand whenever you need it./a/p /div /div This repetition makes navigation via screen readers unnecessarily chatty. Is there some way we can eliminate the redundant links? I don't think so. Otherwise we would give up the link in the headline or the text. And the headline and text should have different text formatting, right? Could this help to get enough differentiation? h2a href=/support/I need help with my OpenOffice/a/h2 pa href=support/index.htmlHelp is at hand whenever you need it./a/p That might silence the warning message, but the problem is still there. The issue is someone navigating by keyboard will see every link twice in a row. So it is a matter of excess noise on the page. I wonder if it would be better to have the image and theh2 be the live links, and not link the smaller long description? Then we might be able to put the image and the text all in onea? This seems to help and also produces no HTML error (verified via W3C HTML validator): div class=action-info div class=action-text action-link a href=/why/h2I want to learn more about OpenOffice/h2 pWhat is Apache OpenOffice? And why should I use it?/p/a /div /div However, the text is now displayed in light-grey and doesn't change anymore when moving the mouse over it (compare with the other texts). So, some further CSS hacks are necessary. Up to now I haven't found the root cause. css needs to follow order so h2.a and p.a styles need to be copied into a.h2 and a.p styles - this may be tedious. That depends on the cascade. The order is important? Really? Didn't know this. OK, fixed now: http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/index.html In the meantime it's already online on www.oo.o.

RE: EXTERNAL: Re: Building comphelper
Thanks for the information Herbert. We continued looking at this today, but we
still have not determined the reason it is crashing. The application crashes at
SidebarController::notifyContextChangeEvent in SidebarController.cxx at

Subject: Re: EXTERNAL: Re: Building comphelper
Hi David,
I just wanted to share the basics of what I have found so far. I still have
no idea on how to solve the issue. Any help would be great!
Observed Behaviour
1.OpenOffice starts, the splash screen with logo appears and then closes
replaced with the full application window and choices for specific OpenOffice
projects.
2.Selecting either the Word or Spreadsheet project causes a segmentation
fault and closes the application.
3.Following the start of the application with the debugger, we can see
the SidebarController is created in a first pass without error (known because
first time to this stop point does not error).
4.As the process continues, the SidebarController constructor is called a
second time (unknown why, but could be understood with more familiarity with
the system).
5.The failure doesn't appear in the constructor, but the trace follows
down SidebarController constructor call of WeakReferenceSidebarController
WeakController (this);
6.This template definition for WeakController uses
ReferenceTemplate::Refrence( interface_type *pInterface) as its definition
in ::com::sun::star::uno::Reference.hxx.
7.The function will try to convert the pInterface parameter to a
XInterface type called _pInterface.
8.If it succeeds in converting the pInterface to _pInterface then the
function will try to acquire a new reference.
9.Assumption: Creating this new reference calls
SidebarController::notifyContextChangeEvent with a corrupt or bad rEvent.
This assumption is based on the stack where the immediate next routine after
the Reference function call is the notifyContextChangeEvent, also while
following along in the debugger, the rEvent parameter at this point is
already corrupted with the value ERROR stored in the structure.
10. It is later after the notifyContextChangeEvent calls Context and then
ustring that the segmentation fault occurs, but I believe the error located
in rEvent is what causes this later problem.
I haven't fully caught up with everything, but if I had to debug this I'd watch
out for exceptions thrown in step 5 and later. In gdb I'd use the command
catch throw
to find the throwing code. Is there a similar facility in Solaris Studio?

SOE (Arrow Styles) file submission mechanism
Hello... I've created numerous line ends (aka Arrow Styles) that I'd like to contribute. However, there's no method on the website for submitting this file type (SOE). I could submit as a template that downloaders could then save as a text file with the right filename extension, I suppose. Seems unfortunately inelegant, though. A Forum moderator asked about submitting as an extension. But arrow styles aren't a programmatic feature, nor even a GUI enhancement like a gallery addition. They're just a text file (XML, as you prob. know). And the file doesn't go in one of the standard user directories anyway. Any ideas for a solution (or remote possibility of expanding submission functionality)? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
