Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I really appreciate the help.
I could find the skeleton files at the location you have
mentioned. Currently we are planning to develop the SDBC driver which
will not be an extension. So, we will have to build the skeleton driver
first, get it in the list of available drivers and then make it work for
LDAP.
Could you please elaborate the point where you mentioned to search
for macab key on the website?
How does the open office dmake understand that it has to build this new
driver?
I guess you place your driver in connectivity. So in that module you
find a file named prj/build.lst that is read when call the "build"
command. But for the start you could simply go in your folder and call
dmake. Each driver has a xcu file which must be "deliver"ed. Which files
are needed to copy/deliver is defined in prj/d.lst
So when you have built your driver with dmake you must call deliver.
After that go to the module scp2 and call "build" and deliver again.
Then you have to build the module instsetoo_native and voila your OOo
ist to install.
Below follows a simple list of todo's:
1. Create the driver files (Driver,Connection,Statement,ResultSet,...)
2. Create the xcu and xml file, take a look at the other drivers for
inspiration ;-)
3. dmake
4. Adjust d.lst to fit your new driver
5. deliver
6. Search for the word macab or jdbc in the module scp2 and create the
same for your new driver
7. build
8. deliver
9. go to instsetoo_native and build
10. Install your new OOo and enjoy your new driver.
11. Debug issues ;-)

Hi Rohit,
First of all you have to decide if the driver should be an extension
or not. I would first try it as extension because you could look at
the mysql driver.
Not an extension:
The best and easiest way to start I guess is to simply copy the
skeleton files in a folder beside the other database drivers in
connectivity. Further on you should copy e.g. the macab.xml and
macab.xcu file and rename it to your driver in the same directory.
Search with opengrok http://svn.services.openoffice.org/opengrok/
the macab key inside the other projects e.g. scp2 to include the
files into the OOo installation. Build OOo.
As extension:
Here the best way is to look at the mysqlc/source where the mysql
extension is build and copy the files you need to build the oxt. But
please be aware to replace all occurrences of mysql with your name ;-)
Best regards,
Ocke

Currently I am writing an SDBC driver for LDAP directories. I am
following the guidelines given at
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/Database/SDBC_Driver
This includes writing Driver, connection, statement and
resultset
services.
I want to compile the skeleton driver code and have an entry
in the list
of available drivers. This driver will be a pseudo driver
and will not
have any functionality. This will help in developing the
actual driver.
I am not able to find skeleton driver related source files.
I could
locate a folder named skeleton in
"/OOO320_m19/connectivity/workben/skeleton" but could not
find actual
source files.
Could anyone please give me any pointers regarding
1. Where can I find the source files for the skeleton driver?
2. How to build a skeleton driver?
3. How to make an entry in available drivers list?
Thanks for your time. I really appreciate the help.
Regards,
Rohit
