------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Oct 24 01:54:52 -0700 2006 ------- Originally, it was planned to introduce actual extension dependencies (see <http://specs.openoffice.org/appwide/packagemanager/extensiondependencies1.odt>) on a by-need basis. No needs for extensions depending on features introduced in OOo 2.1 have been claimed. However, kso raised concern for the following scenario: after OOo 2.1 has been released, someone writes an extension that does depend on features introduced in OOo 2.1. That extension cannot declare its dependencies adequately, unless we do introduce a dependency <OpenOffice.org-minimal-version value="2.1"/> now. (Which has the consequence that people will assume that for future versions similar dependencies with value="2.2" etc. will also be available.) Formally, the dependency is an empty XML element whose name consists of the namespace name "http://openoffice.org/extensions/description/2006"; and the local part "OpenOffice.org-minimal-version". It shall have two attributes, namely the "name" attribute required for every dependency and an attribute with unprefixed name "value" whose value is the string representation of an OOo version starting with OOo 2.1 (in which case the value is the string "2.1"). The dependency is fulfilled if and only if the value of the current OOo version is (element-by-element lexicographically) greater than or equal to the specified value. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
