It is still broken by design. Either you provide stable undo operations for a scenario or you do not provide undo operations for the scenario at all. Because you can also be certain that the user you speak of would prefer no undo for tricky operations rather than an undo stack than sometimes crahes the application. > I am also not sure if we really need to create the "Eierlegende > Wollmilchsau" with a new Undo API, or if most people wouldn't already > be happy with some API at the document level where the can perform > StartUndoContext/EndUndoContext/Undo/Redo/Repeat/EnableUndo. No need for that german pig. However, what is desperately needed is a basic general concept not only for the interface, but also for the implementation of undo, including some design patterns (like for example the simple undo guard proposed in i114888). Otherwise we will end up with conflicting designs, which is hard to clean up. To clarify: I dont want to rewrite all of undo at once -- but at least we should have a shared and documented vision how it is _supposed_ to work.

[api-dev] Wiki Cleanup: Mission Accomplished (Mostly)
Hi List, the Wiki Cleanup has been almost completed. There are just seven pages left in: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Special:UncategorizedPages If you can remove those, please do so. Also note the new Guidelines at: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Wiki_Contribution_Guidelines All previous guidelines now refer to that page. Please stick to them when creating new content or when updating old. Pages that ignoring the guidelines will be dealt with more vicously from now on (read: they might just be deleted). Some of the categories are still overflowing with pages. Please note that the administration guidelines[1] say: "Dont assign a page to multiple categories if one is an subcategories of another. Just use the most specific category. This eases reordering and reorganisation of categories." I already sorted out the Development (which had more than 200 members) and Writer categories, by creating subcategories and moving the content into them. A category with more than 100 members rarely helps anybody. Other categories still need help. The API project is asked to take responsibility for the pages in category "API" and its subcategories. Please take a close look at the pages in the following categories: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Category:Uno (185 members) http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Category:API (118 members) Please create subcategories and move the pages into the more specific subcategory.

Re: [api-dev] Debug idlc output messages

You can rebuild and redeliver the idlc with a higher debug level. However, I noticed you will need to do some fixes if you set the debug level really high, as some of the verbose debug outputs are broken and cause compile errors.

Not good for a page two clicks from the frontpage. Maybe somebody should fix that? Alternatively: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/ and then Participate/Getting started with OpenOffice.org Development -> Building Guide or directly from the wiki frontpage -> Documnetation/Building Guide.
