[sc-dev] Farewell

2011-09-04 Thread Niklas Nebel
In case anyone is still reading these lists:

I have left Oracle and started a new job, not related to
OpenOffice.org. Because of this, I won't have enough time for any
meaningful participation in the "new" OpenOffice.org at Apache. So
it's time for me to say goodbye. OpenOffice.org has always been great
fun for me, so I'm happy to see some familiar names in the Apache
project, which makes me confident they will be able to continue the
success of OpenOffice.org.

Thanks everybody for a great time!

[sc-dev] Re: oo 3.x: hiding columns in large spreadsheets sometimes very slow

i noticed hiding columns in large spreadsheets (~3MB) can be

  For i = 0 To uBound(mRanges())
oRange = oSheet.getCellRangeByName(mRanges(i))
oRange.getColumns().IsVisible = bVisible
  Next i

will take about 3 seconds for each range in my spreadsheet - why ?


Are there many comments (notes) in the file? Then it might be related to 
issue 102716.



adding oDoc.addActionLock() / oDoc.removeActionLock()
will solve the problem, but i am not sure if i have to use a
oDoc.calculateAll() after removing the lock to be sure,
all formulas are calculated correctly ?


No, addActionLock for the document doesn't interfere with formula 
calculation. It mainly affects the drawing layer.

You can use com.sun.star.sheet.XCellRangeAddressable interface and

UnoRuntime.queryInterface(com.sun.star.sheet.XCellRangeAddressable.class,
xCellRange);

CellRangeAddress aRangeAddress = xRangeAddr.getRangeAddress();

 From aRangeAddress you can get details about range start column,start row
  and range end column,end row. Then you can get the no of columns and rows
you have in the range

int noOfColums = aRangeAddress.EndColumn - aRangeAddress.StartColumn + 1;
int noOfRows = aRangeAddress.EndRow - aRangeAddress.StartRow + 1;

Then traverse through the range using this and you can get all the cells
inside the given range.

for (int i = 0; i<  noOfColums; i++) {

 for (int j = 0; j<  noOfRows; j++) {

 XCell cell = xCellRange.getCellByPosition(i, j);

 }


Or if the parameter has a type like "sequence< sequence< double > >" in 
IDL, which is "double[][]" in Java, you can just use "length" to access 
the array's length.

Re: [sc-dev] Range selection and UNO awt

On 07/22/10 19:13, Pivithuru Wijegunawardana wrote:

I have created a simple GUI using UNO awt for statistical data analysis tool
in summer internship program. Now I want to get the user input data from the

opened the dialog. Functionality I need is something alike the cell function
data input method. I wanted to know whether this is possible in using UNO
awt and cell range selection.


There is the XRangeSelection interface of the SpreadsheetView service, 
but it doesn't allow the same level of integration as Calc's own 
dialogs. With this interface, you can do something like the "Data Range" 
page of the "Chart Wizard" dialog, where you have a button in a modal 
dialog and start the range selection if that button is pressed. It 
doesn't allow selecting a range in the sheet with just the focus in a 
range edit, like it's possible in the Calc dialogs.


Sooner or later we'll have to extend the API here, so extensions can 
have dialogs that work like our own. So we shouldn't put much effort 
into implementing something with XRangeSelection now. Instead I suggest 
to just use simple Edit controls into which the range address has to be 
typed, like "Copy sort results to" in the "Sort" dialog. The component 
then has to parse that input. If we later extend the API, we can have 
the new API read and write from these Edit controls.


One thing you should prepare is the possibility to change your dialogs 
to modeless dialogs, because that's how Calc's reference dialogs work. A 
modeless dialog doesn't have an execute method that returns when the 
dialog is closed. Instead it performs its actions from event handlers, 
so you can't keep information in local variables across the execute 
call. To simulate this, you can just add a method like "dialogClosed" to 
your component, and call it directly after "execute", with no additional 
parameters. If that method reads the settings from the dialog and does 
the processing, it can later be called from a listener when the dialog 
is changed to modeless.

It still seems unusual. Are these formulas supposed to be static, or

Anyway, if you modify cell content from UI code, you have to take care 
of repaint, undo, formula updates, and possibly row heights. There's a 
method ScDocFunc::SetCellText for a single cell, which handles this, or 
you might do something similar to lcl_PutDataArray in cellsuno.cxx.

If you don't want to add an OpCode and have your function called by

Returning a ScMatrix might still be useful, but not necessarily so.

I wouldn't recommend that. If you have a function that can be used 
without ScInterpreter, you should move it out of interpre.hxx. If you're 
creating an ScInterpreter instance to call your function, better use 
ScFormulaCell instead.

Header files in core/inc should be included only from the core 
directory. Using ScInterpreter directly isn't a good idea anyway. Where 
formulas are calculated (like validity or conditional formats), we 
always use ScFormulaCell.

Simply moving a function will cause some changes in behavior (like the

complex-number functions to the analysis add-in, so their behavior is as 
similar as possible to the existing functions.


There are already add-in functions that have no Excel equivalent (like

In other places with sin() the version ::rt::math::sin() is used to get

If there is no special reason, should I replace it, while I work on the

The 2^63 limit is there to prevent invalid results (outside of the range 
from -1 to 1). The 2^27 limit also prevents inaccurate results, like 
Leonard described. Both can be justified. The pragmatic solution, to 
avoid breaking any existing usage, might be to keep the separate limit

Yes, build the affected code with "debug=true". You can mix debug and

ScRangeToSequence has helper methods to fill UNO sequences, but these

Could you also shed some light on the following :

- Which file handles the calculations and recalculations in the spreadsheet.
Is it ScDocument again ?


Calculation of a formula is done by ScFormulaCell::Interpret, which uses 
ScInterpreter. After modifications to a document, cells are notified 
using broadcasters which call ScFormulaCell::Notify.



- Where exactly is ScRange (class / struct ?)  defined ? Can't seem to

OpenGrok answers such questions 
(http://svn.services.openoffice.org/opengrok/). ScRange is in address.hxx.



- What exactly is  " tableview " ? Does it refer to all the cells on the
spreadsheet ? I know that Topview => Input line view.


In the input handler, that's the EditView in the cell in the table, as 
opposed to the input line.



- ScInputHandler has a function StartTable. What is it really doing ?


It basically checks if editing is possible at the cell cursor position, 
and puts the cell content into the EditEngine.

Re: [sc-dev] improvements to openoffice calc

I am a keen user of OpenOffice, especially of Writer and Calc. As a student
studying physics I need to draw a lot of graphs. One thing that Excel has
over Calc in this is that it allows graphs to be inserted in new sheets,
rather than being inserted next to the original data. When there is a lot of
data this is a very helpful feature for quick reference for trends etc.
Also, as I am using a netbook, it means that the graph easily fills the
screen without having to scroll through columns to find the graph. It would
be great if you could incorporate this into Calc!


Separate "chart sheets" have been suggested before (issue 5736) and 
would be useful. They haven't been added because it would require larger 
changes.


But you can already cut & paste a chart to a normal empty sheet in your 
file and manually resize it to the window size. That way, you have it 
available without scrolling, too.

Individual cell formats are always removed, because we don't know if the

flag at the database range, formats from the first data row will be 
extended to the other rows on refreshing.

A method of this class is to be called in the "inputwin.cxx"

If there's a new directory where a new library is built, that library 
has to be included in sc/util/makefile.mk. But in most cases it's better 
to add a file to one of the existing directories (sc/source/ui/app could

You can use the NetBeans plugin to create a new "Component" project and

INDIRECT is supposed to parse a reference, not any more complex

So what is a 'reference'? For ISREF the help say, "Tests if the argument

FALSE otherwise." Taking that, D1:D3!C2:E2 is a 'reference'.


The result of the expression is a reference, just like the result of 
"OFFSET(A1;A2;A3)". As part of a formula, like your ISREF example, the 
expression is evaluated, and the ISREF function only handles the result. 
For INDIRECT, the parameter is a string, which may be the result of some 
other calculation, but the string isn't parsed and evaluated before it's 
passed to the function.

The text cursor API also works for cell content. But that's the content

OOo 3.x has a cache (ScDPCacheTable), but it isn't saved, and the

A little update on the file format part:

The current plan is to extend the "ODF format version" list box in the 
options dialog with an additional entry, to select between "1.2" and 
"extended 1.2" ("extended" in the ODF 1.2 sense).


If "1.2" is selected, nothing is saved that is not in ODF 1.2.
If "1.2 extended" is selected (the default), extensions are saved as 
"foreign" elements/attributes (this means, in a different namespace - 
but accept both namespaces when loading).


Also, we want to use extensions sparingly, and generally only if a new 
feature is really used. This is difficult with the cache table, where 
the obvious approach is to always write it.


File format extensions are also needed for shapes in charts and notes in 
Impress, so the UI and configuration change will probably be implemented 
for one of these features (details will be sorted out next week, but

I've reviewed my change against the baseline, and my only addition to

understanding that adding new constant values to the existing constant

Having said that, it's entirely possible that I'm misunderstanding the

An extension can supply its own implementation of the DataPilotSource 
service, which can then be used with the "External source/interface" 
option (see 
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/Spreadsheets/DataPilot_Sources). 
To maintain compatibility with such extensions, Calc must not rely on 
the presence of new, added properties. This is different from services 
which are only implemented in Calc.



Also, I'd like to see how the "Filter" property was handled in a
compatible way.  Could you point me to the place to look for?  I did my
own search, but I couldn't find what may look like the code you are

For the "Filter" property, ScDPSaveDimension::WriteToSource just has to 
be prepared for an exception from setPropertyValue, because it's not an 
error if that property isn't supported.



I've switched to using SvxCheckListBox for the member list control.  So,
that should take care of that part of the accessibility, I assume.

Also, I'd like to know more about the accessibility function
requirements.  Could you give me some pointers, please?  I'm not that

Seriously, the "Format Cells" dialog modifies only the selected cells. 
Sounds obvious thus far, but it means the adjacent cells keep their 
black borders. Where adjacent cells have different borders, the thicker 
border is drawn. In your example, the width is the same, so that rule 
doesn't help, and the border from the bottom or right cell is used.


If you want to experiment anyway, see 
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Development/OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide 
about how to get the source and build it. Then, ScOutputData::DrawFrame 
(sc/source/ui/view/output.cxx) for drawing and

applying the borders are good starting points.

The scaddins module doesn't use the headers from offuh, but creates its 
own ones. This is done in part to bring it closer to being a pure UNO 
component (it isn't really one because it depends on tools for the 
resource files), and in part because it's needed for the own interfaces 
anyway.


The list of types for which headers are made is in UNOTYPES in 
makefile.mk. Just add the new one there.

XIdlMethod::invoke wraps exceptions from the add-in in an

Ok.  All my changes related to DataPilot are now in koheidatapilot03
cws.  I'm also working on specs on the wiki.  They are at:

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Calc/Features/DataPilot_enhanced_field_popup_window
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Calc/Features/DataPilot_custom_display_names

The first spec is pretty much complete, while the second one is still
being worked on.

Also, FYI, I'll be on vacation for the entire next week.  So, whatever
change still needs to be done will be done after I get back.


In addition to the visual comments on the ux-discuss list, some 
technical remarks (I haven't looked through all of it yet, expect more 
to come):


- Extensions to the DataPilotSource API must be done in a compatible way 
(see the handling of the "Filter" property).


- We have to pay attention to keyboard accessibility (obvious key 
choice: Ctrl-D, as for page fields).


- The popup window has to implement accessibility API. Generally the 
easiest way for that is to use existing controls, like SvxCheckListBox 
for the item selection. For the menu entries a new control would have to 
be implemented, including the accessibility functions. Perhaps it's also 
possible to extend the VCL popup menu with an extra window, but I can't 
guarantee that's even possible without running into new problems.

   It maybe relate to Quantify environment - drawing is very slow.
   Actually, ScAttrArray::ApplyBlockFrame is a low performance function.
   If the output table about 1 rows, ScDPOutput::Output() used 8-10 
seconds in our test environment.

   Current solution, to data area in the table:
   Case 1:  all cells need set border, then setting block frame border 
only once is ok.
   Case 2:  otherwise, set block frame border like this


Applying the frames takes some time in a large output table, that's right.


- "Data Source buffer" sounds interesting. Now it would of course be
helpful to see the actual code changes for it.
   It is something like Excel's PivotCache, and better to save it in the 
document file.

   If that, we need the approval of the ODF format proposal relate it.


OOo 3.x has a cache (ScDPCacheTable), but it isn't saved, and the 
results are still created using ScDPItemData. We'll have to see how we 
can put these things together. Also, you're right, we'll have to clarify 
the file format handling.



- The allocation for all members (B1,B2,B3) is what issue 55266 is
about. In the "Solution Description" section, there's only the heading.
Do you have a solution for that?
   I have a solution in LateInitFrom. To row data, only new 
ScDPResultMember when find it.


Excellent. I had something like that in mind for issue 55266, but never 
found the time to actually try it.


All three changes you mention still seem to be valid and useful for 3.x. 
How big are the individual changes, is it possible to extract them, so 
we can try to update them to the 3.x code base?

Re: [sc-dev] How should MULTIPLE.OPERATIONS calculate?

2009-06-22 Thread Niklas Nebel

On 06/22/09 17:10, Regina Henschel wrote:

Right. A1+A2 is calculated as A1+A6, which is 2+700, or 702.


So OOo drops "=MULTIPLE.OPERATIONS(A3;A6;A4)"? OOo acts as if the 
formula in A5 is "=A3".


All references to A6 in A3's formula are replaced with A4. There are 
none, so the result is A3, unchanged.


OFFSET doesn't mix well with MULTIPLE.OPERATIONS because it's one of 
the functions that cause the cell to be recalculated on any change, 
like RAND or NOW. So the changed formula depends on the special 
"ALWAYS" range, not on A2. That's a matter of implementation, and 
could probably be changed, but it doesn't look like a high-priority 
issue.


That means, that it is another problem and a real bug and the result 
should be 18 in both cases? [18= 11 (content of one position after A4)+7 
(content of A4)]

"OOo Later" would be OK for me.


A bug or a limitation, whatever one might call it, but certainly 
different from the other case.

That makes it not clearer and I do not see by which rules OOo results in 
702. Would you be so kind to give a step by step calculation?


And besides the question what OOo does, there is the question whether 
that conforms to the spec.


Calculation starts in (A7=)MULTIPLE.OPERATIONS(A5;A2;A6). This means, 
"Take the formula in A5, replace all occurrence of A2 with A6 and 
calculate the formula then". Right?


So instead of calculating (A5=)MULTIPLE.OPERATIONS(A3;A2;A4) OOo 
calculates "=MULTIPLE.OPERATIONS(A3;A6;A4)". And now? If I understand 
the spec correct, then OOo has to go to A3 and look whether it depends 
on A2 and replace A2 with A6 if so.


Right. A1+A2 is calculated as A1+A6, which is 2+700, or 702.

If the formula on which a cell depends is a simple operation like + or * 
(as in the examples in the spec), then it makes no difference, when the 
replacement is done. In addition, it makes no difference whether you use 
the reference or use already the value to which the reference points. 
But here it is more complex and need to be defined.


Another example, again enter in column A.
2
3
5
7
11
13
17
19
=OFFSET(A2;1;0)
=A9+A2
=MULTIPLE.OPERATIONS(A10;A2;A4)

Try the same with
=OFFSET(A2;1;0)+A2
in cell A10 instead of =A9+A2
I would expect the same result, but it isn't.


OFFSET doesn't mix well with MULTIPLE.OPERATIONS because it's one of the 
functions that cause the cell to be recalculated on any change, like 
RAND or NOW. So the changed formula depends on the special "ALWAYS"

I think that the terms "execute formula expression" and "while

(1) I interpret it in the way, that I first replace all references, 
generating intermediate, temp sheets, and then evaluate that sheet. I 
get the following:


The references are replaced dynamically during calculation, not in a

Honestly, it doesn't matter. It's well known that this feature is

Yes. Normally, an issue is closed when the fix was seen in a milestone 
build. This is done in case a fix gets lost during CWS integration 
(merge conflicts, etc). If you found them fixed in a milestone already, 
there's no need for the separate step.
