I'm not sure I understand what you mean with registering. Are you
referring to parclass.cxx?

I just added some details to
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Calc/Implementation/Spreadsheet_Functions#The_not_so_easy_case_of_non-scalar_arguments
and hope that helps. If not, please ask your questions ;-)

Hi Eike,

Working with ranges inside the functions is not the issue, but registering
function is. I followed steps described in
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Calc/Implementation/Spreadsheet_Functions,
and it seems that some additional changes must be made for functions that
take range as a parameter.

Thanks,
Marina

You need to differentiate according to the data type that is on the
stack, e.g. svDoubleRef for a range reference. See for example
ScInterpreter::ScMax() how that is handled in a simple case. For your
implementation also ScInterpreter::ScCountIf() and
ScInterpreter::ScSumIf() may be of interest.

[sc-dev] Add a new Calc spreadsheet function

2010-08-09 Thread Marina Plakalovic
Hi all,

I have started working on adding new Calc functions and I am still new in
these things.

I have added new function by following the tutorial:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Calc/Implementation/Spreadsheet_Functions

This works fine when the arguments of the function are scalar, but if I want
to pass the range of values to the function, additional steps are needed.

Can anyone give me some tips about this case?

Thanks in advance,
Marina
