[dev] new dependency to ant version 1.7.1
Hi, i would like to increase the ant dependency to version 1.7.1. The reason is that newer NetBeans versions create build.xml scripts that make use of features from ant 1.7.1 It should be possible to build such extensions (that are generated with NB) in the OO build env. The idea behind this is to make it possible for developers to easy bring their extensions in the OO build env and take advantage of the i18n process for example. Is there anybody who see problems with this increased dependency to ant 1.7.1? If yes please let me know. The other question is where i have to make changes? configure.cmd configure.in configure solenv/inc/antsettings.mk any more places?

It makes no sense to break the build for the others which have a sufficiently uptodate ant otherwise) currently we have: ant_minver=1.6.0 # update for more extensions... if test $ENABLE_MEDIAWIKI = YES; then ant_minver=1.7.0 fi configure No change needed, except running autoconf.

[dev] RuntimeException: getInstance expected XInterface but got com.sun.star.table.XCell
Hi everybody, I am a developer for the memoComp company in Germany. We are supporting openoffice applications as well as other java technologies. Now my major concern: We developed a webservice, which transfers data from MS-Excel (xls) type files into a custom template of openoffice calc. This webservice is written in Java and is using the UNO-Api Interface. For its task the service creates an calc file from our template (ots) for every incoming xls file, and simply copies the content from the incoming xls into the newly created file cell by cell. Nothing strange up here. Everything is working in theory and reality. Relevant code: XCell newCell = xSpreadsheetOut.getCellByPosition(x, y); newCell.setFormula(...); The problem now is that the service throws runtime excptions for which I have not found any useful documentation files till now. The stack trace is the following: com.sun.star.uno.RuntimeException: getInstance expected XInterface but got com.sun.star.table.XCell at com.sun.star.lib.uno.environments.remote.Job.remoteUnoRequestRaisedException(Job.java:182) at com.sun.star.lib.uno.environments.remote.Job.execute(Job.java:148) at com.sun.star.lib.uno.environments.remote.JobQueue.enter(JobQueue.java:344) at com.sun.star.lib.uno.environments.remote.JobQueue.enter(JobQueue.java:313) at com.sun.star.lib.uno.environments.remote.JavaThreadPool.enter(JavaThreadPool.java:101) at com.sun.star.lib.uno.bridges.java_remote.java_remote_bridge.sendRequest(java_remote_bridge.java:652) at com.sun.star.lib.uno.bridges.java_remote.ProxyFactory$Handler.request(ProxyFactory.java:154) at com.sun.star.lib.uno.bridges.java_remote.ProxyFactory$Handler.invoke(ProxyFactory.java:136) at $Proxy8.setFormula(Unknown Source) at de.xxx.ReportImporter.copyRangesIntoTemplateAndStoreDocument(Unknown Source) [...] java.lang.NullPointerException at de.memocomp.oo.OOManager.closeDocument(Unknown Source) at de.xxx.ReportImporter.copyRangesIntoTemplateAndStoreDocument(Unknown Source) [...] What I am able to say is, that the service was designed to run asynchronous. If we do so, the exception appears more often. If the service runs queued or in a pipline it works quite well. The exception above then appeard only once in ~30 runs, but it appeared. Trying retries if the error occurs, even with 10sec wait in between did not had any positive (or negative) effect on the issue. Testing the cast of the XCell to XInterface before the call works fine, even if the error occurs: Code: XCell newCell = xSpreadsheetOut.getCellByPosition(x, y); XInterface x = newCell; newCell.setFormula(...); The environment were the webservice is installed is a windows server where two tomcat instances are running managed by a load balancer. Openoffice is in version 3.1 and is installed on the same server, where the two instances (load balancing) of our webservice are connecting to openoffice via socket. The code to instanciate and connect to openoffice is the Bootstrap-Connector from hol.sten. available under: http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=44t=2520 [...] String hostAndPort = host=+host+,port=+port; // accept option String oooAcceptOption = -accept=socket,+hostAndPort+;urp;; // connection string String unoConnectString = uno:socket,+hostAndPort+;urp;StarOffice.ComponentContext; [...] Runtime.getRuntime().exec(oooCommand); [...] XComponentContext xLocalContext = Bootstrap.createInitialComponentContext(null); [...] We re looking forward to any helpful response, helping to understand and to solve this exception.

[dev] Using JUnit 4 in OOo build environment
One of my Test Cleanup (http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Test_Cleanup) efforts is to consistently use standard JUnit 4 for the Java-based tests in the OOo code base. It appears that JUnit is not yet a requirement in the OOo build environment, and I see different ways how to make it one: 1 Include JUnit 4 as an external module in the OOo code base, allowing some configure --with-system-junit switch to override it. We could include either 1.1 http://sourceforge.net/projects/junit/files/junit/4.8.1/junit-4.8.1.jar/download which, due to being platform-independent, can directly be used without any compilation (and appears to run fine on our Java 5 baseline), or 1.2 http://sourceforge.net/projects/junit/files/junit/4.8.1/junit4.8.1.zip/download and build it. 2 Require JUnit 4 to be installed as a prerequisite, checked by configure. We could either 2.1 try to find it on CLASSPATH (which would imply that set_soenv.in must no longer resets the CLASSPATH; which is probably dubious, anyway---as dubious as the additional XCLASSPATH), or 2.2 require that an appropriate configure --with-junit=... switch is always passed (which would be optionally available in 2.1, too, to explicitly specify the JUnit 4 to be used).

[dev] assertion failure
Greetings, I have just completed a non-product build of DEV300_m71, my first ever non-product build. http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Non_Product_Build tells me that an assertion failure is considered to be a bug and should be reported. However, I had three different assertion failures within the first few minutes using the program. So, I suspect that the messages may be a result of my own misundertanding rather than a problem in the code itself. Let me pick on the first assertion which failed, and one which is failing quite regularly. It is ... Error: seekEntry(): Bad map From File /home/terry/OOo_hacking/DEV300_m71/svl/source/misc/inettype.cxx at line 818 ( It looks to me like the code is testing for pointer values increasing in successive array elements where it should be testing for increasing values of the pointed-to strings. The pointers are initialized from string literals at line 487 of the same file. So, it is not too surprising that the assertion fails. ) First, the issues database: when I query the issues database, I come up empty on (*) [seekEntry] in summary (0 hits) (*) [seekEntry] in description (0 hits) (*) [bad map] (all words) in summary (4 hits: 3 are bitmaps, 1 is an html image map) (*) [bad map] (all words) in description (40 hits: none of the DEFECTs appears at first glance to apply to my situation) How should I do my query?
