Well, I considered doing some "magic" that when the property is written, if it gets an integer, interpret it the old way and if it gets a UNO Date struct, interpret it the obvious (new) way. Someone (Stephan Bergmann?) told me that one could do that for attributes but not (pseudo?)properties (or something like that); the Basic implementation (bridge?) would refuse to even pass a value of the wrong type to the C++ code. I don't see how to achieve it short of special-casing this into the bridge / other parts of the Basic implementation. Which sounds like a guaranteed subscription for maintenance nightmares, and thus not the best of ideas. Would the Basic implementation / UNO bridge people be willing to actually have that kind of special-casing? >> What´s happend, you can read my article on my homepage.

Another user already did that: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/68751 It already led to concrete mitigation steps (in the form of utility functions to convert between the Basic native date type and UNO Date, Time and DateTime) in 4.1.3 (correctly documented in 4.1.4). If anybody has concrete actionable ideas on how to sweeten the bitter pill (short of "rollback the change"), we sure can consider it. -- Lionel _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
