Hello Jürgen, I apologize for the delay answering, but as you may know, in France last days were non-working days, so no internet connection for me. ^_^ In this mail, I will just focus on the idea of a new tool like "qmake".

I think it would be nice too, in particular, now that the URE will be released as a separate component of OpenOffice.org. That way, new projects could be managed really easily. It could really help newcomers to OpenOffice to start understanding the API, and developers to earn time ! III - Short description for the tool : For example, such a tool by just typing commands like would generate everything to be done (IDL transformation, compilation...) in a transparent way for the developper. $ ooomake -project // (1) $ ooomake // (2) $ make // (3) (1) - Generates a file containing the dependencies the source files. Example : TEMPLATE = my_app DEPENDPATH += . INCLUDEPATH += . OOO += writer // project depends on the writer API. # Input HEADERS += hello.h SOURCES += hello.cpp SOURCES += main.cpp (2) - generates the Makefile (3) - launches the Makefile IV - links - qmake tutorial - http://doc.trolltech.com/4.0/qmake-tutorial.html qmake doc - http://doc.trolltech.com/4.0/qmake-manual.html Do you think it would be a good idea try to develop such a "tool" ? I suppose that ooomake could mainly call other tools (idlc...), to get the work done. Would it be useful to add a feature request for such a tool ? > Juergen Regards, Pierre-Andre -- "I have always wished for my computer to be as easy to use as my telephone; my wish has come true because I can no longer figure out how to use my telephone" - Bjarne Stroustrup - --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
