Hi cyb!
<< Anyway, if such an enhancement would be made - and I think it would be a very
<< useful one - it would be nice to be able to get the implementation exposed as
<< an API object, so that API developers can get the version number as well
<< (without needing to run ./soffice -v in the shell).
This discussion was done some times before on OOo. There wont be any support
for versions on the API. The API itself is stable and you have to check if an
interface is supported by the created API object before you use it. So you dont
need any version information.
An example:
The implementation of css.frame.Frame got's a new interface named css.util.
XCloseable. It must be used instead of XComponent.dispose() ... if it exists.
XCloseable xClose = (XCloseable)UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
XCloseable.class,
xFrame);
if (xClose != null)
xClose.close(false);
else
{
XComponent xDispose = (XComponent)UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
XComponent.class,
xFrame);
if (xDispose != null)
xDispose.dispose();
else
throw Exception("cant close.");
}
In this case the version of the office doesnt help you. Because it's possible
to move
the new implementation of css.frame.Frame to an older version ! That's possible
because it's an UNO component, which can be applied to any office version ...
where it finds the right environment.
So the version of an office cant be applied to the interface of an API object.
You
can extend the office with any UNO component you like and it's not related to
the
version of the office.
Regards
Andreas
