Hi Grzegorz Borys ,

Very warm welcome here on our list. Developers are always needed :-)
The dev guide is a good point to start with. But you don't need all of them. The most code is written in C++. The best way to start is to get a OOo version and the source code of course ;-)
Here are some links, I hope they still work:

   * http://api.openoffice.org/docs/cpp/ref/index.html
   * http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Main_Page
   * http://www.go-oo.org/hackers-guide.html
   * http://tools.openoffice.org/#Build

The whole database stuff is located in dba/dbaccess and dba/connectivity.
To implement joins in dBase you need at least the connectivity module. In connectivity/source/drivers/file and connectivity/source/drivers/dbase you'll find all you want about the dBase driver. But be aware the code is a little bit "old" ;-) On the other side I know that many people would love to see that this missing feature would be implemented.

As always feel free to ask any question.  I'll help where I can. ;-)


Best regards,

Ocke

Hi,

I'm junior software developer / programmer who decided to help OpenOffice. Right now I'm starting to go trough `Developers Guide` and in near future I
would like to help with "Joins in dBase queries" Project. If it will be
still available.

I wasn't developing for almost year and little longer in C++, but I hope to catch up quickly. As my past studies and degree is partly Databases oriented
I would like to help with more database related Open Office projects in
future.

My question for now: Is there anything else not included in `Developers
Guide` I should know?

regards
Grzegorz Borys
