Hi Jonas, It seems like a privilege issue. Maybe it was caused by cygwin. I think you can run cygwin as administrator again and try.

Re: loadComponentFromURL - Solaris 11 OO 3.3
Hi Raymond,
I'm not sure what all those error messages mean, but I can make
some suggestions to try. It has been noted that AOO 3.3 and 3.4
will not run on version 1.7 of Java, at least for Solaris. I have
in my 3.4 and running Java 1.6. See below snapshot (may not come
through).
Basically it has something to do with labeling as "Oracle" or "Sun
Microsystems". My next suggestion is to try and install 3.4. I
can be downloaded here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+3.4+Unofficial+Developer+Snapshots
There is one person (Apostols Syropoulos) trying to compile the
latest version 4.0, but having trouble. I haven't seen any posts
the past two weeks.
Thanks,
Paul

RE: EXTERNAL: Re: Building comphelper
Hey, I just wanted to share the basics of what I have found so far. I still have no idea on how to solve the issue. Any help would be great! Observed Behaviour 1. OpenOffice starts, the splash screen with logo appears and then closes replaced with the full application window and choices for specific OpenOffice projects. 2. Selecting either the Word or Spreadsheet project causes a segmentation fault and closes the application. 3. Following the start of the application with the debugger, we can see the SidebarController is created in a first pass without error (known because first time to this stop point does not error). 4. As the process continues, the SidebarController constructor is called a second time (unknown why, but could be understood with more familiarity with the system). 5. The failure doesn't appear in the constructor, but the trace follows down SidebarController constructor call of "WeakReference WeakController (this);" 6. This template definition for WeakController uses Reference::Refrence( interface_type *pInterface) as its definition in ::com::sun::star::uno::Reference.hxx. 7. The function will try to convert the pInterface parameter to a XInterface type called _pInterface. 8. If it succeeds in converting the pInterface to _pInterface then the function will try to acquire a new reference. 9. Assumption: Creating this new reference calls SidebarController::notifyContextChangeEvent with a corrupt or bad rEvent. This assumption is based on the stack where the immediate next routine after the Reference function call is the notifyContextChangeEvent, also while following along in the debugger, the rEvent parameter at this point is already corrupted with the value stored in the structure. 10. It is later after the notifyContextChangeEvent calls Context and then ustring that the segmentation fault occurs, but I believe the error located in rEvent is what causes this later problem.

The crashes in Writer and Calc you are seeing both happen when copy constructing an OUString from one provided by the SidebarController, so the provided string must be bad. I suggest to set a breakpoint at SidebarController.cxx:257 and examine the rEvent.ApplicationName and rEvent.ContextName whether these are good strings. From the stack I'd say they probably are not. Then go up the stack and check where they come from and why their are bad. Good luck!

Dictionary - en_GB - release it?
Hello! One week has gone by and only one person replied to the testing e-mail, with a "+1". Does this mean I can press the "Publish" button? Also, every month I update the dictionary with around 200-300 new unique words (we are only in half of January and the planned February release already has near 300 new unique words, which means that this month I worked harder). Should I update Apache's dictionary every month or only at a certain pace? I update Mozilla's version every month. Thanks! Kind regards, >Marco A.G.Pinto --- --
Appreciation from a LibreOffice user on the addition of IAccessible2 support
Hi David, I noticed your note on the LibreOffice mailing mailing list: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/accessibility/msg00589.html Since no one mentioned this on the LO mailing list, I wanted to point out that the A11Y improvements came from the Apache OpenOffice project. LibreOffice takes the code and merges it in with their product. I'm cc'ing the OpenOffice dev mailing list so they can read your message and your thanks. Of course, I'm happy to see this code used by OpenOffice users as well as LibreOffice users. My only hope is that the LibreOffice developers will start contributing back to OpenOffice any bug fixes that they make in this area, a common courtesy in most every other open source project. It would be great if we could work together in this area to better serve the community and advance our shared interest in reducing the digital divide. It would be wonderful as well, if you find any reproducible bugs in this area, that you let us at Apache know as well.

glich in write
You made it very difficult for me to tell you about this. If you really want to improve your product you might want to think about putting an item, under "Help" on the file menu to make it easier to report observed glitches. The problems I observed are in: File/wizards/document converter/ select staroffice and then text document when I hit next I tried to change the save location on the documents and hit the button that I assume should say browse but displays "..." which took me to the "select path" window that does not display the navigation, "new folder" and "view menu" buttons that the "Save" and "Open" windows have. When I tried to select a a path, only the last folder selected was displayed. (When I located the path by other means and pasted it into the "Save to:" window it took it.) Then I stopped what I was doing to let you know what I had seen I realized, in the process that, that was not what I was trying to do so,I did not convert anything. I hope this helps make OpenOffice a better product. Thanks sooo much for making OpenOffice available for free. If I find anything else, I will let you know and if you need anymore info. let me know.

Tracking document corruption reports
I've created a short survey related to document corruption issues, specifically the kind where the contents of a file is replaced by hash marks. The survey asks the user for information related to the circumstances of the issue, the machine configuration, OpenOffice settings, etc. The hope is that we can collect this information is a systematic way and narrow down the problem. So when we see reports of this kind of problem again, let's please ask the user to enter the details here: http://survey.openoffice.org/index.php/334187/lang-en This will be most useful for new reports going forward, where the user will have this information fresh in their mind. However, if you have a good recollection of a previous incident, you can enter the details for those as well.

The other change -- which probably needs more discussion -- is to
implement some form of "skiplinks". The current problem is a user
needs to tab over the navigation links on every page they load before
they get to the actual page contents. Best practice is to have some
short cut to go directly to navigation, to content, to footer. The
tricky thing is to do this in a way that works well with the page
design as well.
This page implements it in a clever way:
http://accessites.org/site/2006/05/skip-link-pros-and-cons/
Hit tab a couple times in your browser and you'll see the links show
up in the upper right. This is done with CSS tricks to position the
off screen except when it has the focus.
So they have this meta-navigation:
Jump to Content
Jump to Navigation
Jump to Footer
And from http://accessites.org/site/wp-content/themes/beastblog-v2/style.css:
ul.offset, .offset {
position : absolute;
top : -9000px;
left : -9000px;
z-index : 9;
}
ul.offset a:focus, ul.offset a:active {
position : absolute;
top : 9010px;
left : 9010px;
background-color : #33;
color : #fff;
padding : 5px;
font-weight : bold;
border : 2px solid #000;
width : 6em;
z-index : 9;
}
So navigation menu is 9000 pixels off the screen, except when it has
the focus, in which case it is brought in net 10 pixels.
But I wonder what happens if you try to print a page like that.
Hopefully the browsers are smart enough not to print many blank pages
followed by the off-screen menu...
The complication with our website is that we have side menu navigation
on some (but not all pages). But we have top nav, and footer, on all
pages.

-Rob

Re the ruler on the left side, please orientate the numbers horizontally. The vertical numbering blends together and is unreadable. I have not seen it blend togethter, but I agree that these would be less irritating when done horizontally. 2. Re Snap Lines, Snap Points and Grid a. It is a common error that when positioning lines and shapes that the Snap Line or Snap Point is accidentally moved slightly. This is often not noticed immediately. Please provide an option to lock these Snaps into their set position. Doy you talk about - objects that get placed or - objects which help positioning (HelpLines, Grid, edges of existing objects, ...) here? If you have cases where there is a misplacement in snapping, please provide a reproducable example, this would be an error. Please note that snapping can be influenced while in action by pressing qualifiers (shift, ctrl, tab) and by changing snap features (see view/toolbars/options in draw). Note that you can create helplines with start to drag on the rulers, they even have an UI for setting them to precise positions. b. It would also be nice when dragging such Snaps that the X-Y co-ordinates are displayed during the dragging, This is in the last line of the app at the left; a text and measurements dependent of the type of action is displayed. The idea to keep this after MouseUp for a defined time is nice, especially since the reason is very good. and displayed for say 1 second after the mouse button is released. It provides confirmation to the user that the setting was not altered upon releasing the mouse button. c. It would be very good if the Snaps could be grouped with an object and: I do not understand if "Snaps" are the graphic objects or snap helper pobjects; of course graphic objects can be grouped. d. that upon copying and pasting onto another page that those Snaps are also retained (the position would be relative to where you placed the group on the page). Also not clear. The grid on the destinatopnmay be defined dofferent, do you want that to be changed when pasting? e. I do not know if there is already a way to do this, but it would be a big help if when dragging Snaps that they would snap to the selected grid. They do depending on the settings f. And I do not see any way to specify the grid divisions. Again, this would be a help. See tools/options/draw/grid 3. Please provide a line circular arc tool that lets you: a. Specify the origin (point of rotation) b. Specify the radius c. Specify the arc begin angle d. Specify the arc end angle e. Allows an option to close the curve at the origin to create a segment In the drawing toolbar, use the rightmost dropdown from the toolbar itself, choose customize. Use "add", Seelct "drawing" left, add what you need. Best is to add "Ellipse", there are two, use the general one which adds another drop-down toolbox to the menu. 4. Please provide a line arc tool that lets you click on a line and convert it to a circular arc – the point would appear at the centre of the line and be dragged at a normal to the line So instead of Modify – To Curve you would also have Modify – To Circular Curve You should be able to do that using the Points mode (see icon or press F8 in draw/impress) and using the bezier stuff. 5. Please provide an option to allow a line to be specified in two ways, shown on the one dialog box a. Origin, length and angle b. Begin point and end point This is missing, only pos/size is available for the object, so if it's a line you can define the start/end point exactly. 6. It is a real major pain that intersecting lines cannot be selected and fragmented at their intersecting point(s). Please fix this. Not possible with lines; would need to constuct filled objects including the lines, using substract and extract the results. Good suggestion to offer that with lines directly. 7. Please make it easy to add onto a line by clicking onto a line, selecting an end point, then selecting a line tool (line, arc, polygon) and then just use that line tool to extend the original line. You can add/remove/edit points using the edit points toolbar 8. Lastly, I know this is not intended to be a 3D Cad program. But a few features would help. a. Have the ability to group several shapes before rotation. This is possible, group or just multi-select what you need b. When the 3D view comes up, have buttons to select the front, top, bottom and side views (a total of 6 views). c. This is a big one – some ability to edit 3D shapes Yes, I w
Building on Windows 7
Hi, I'm trying to build Open Office from trunk on Windows 7. Had some trouble getting through the configure and bootstrap but finally now building step is starting. A few modules into the build the following error occurs in module jpeg: jonasalfredsson@TOMMY-TUMULT /cygdrive/c/source/aoo-trunk/main/instsetoo_native $ build --all:jpeg build -- version: 275224 = Building module jpeg = Entering /cygdrive/c/source/aoo-trunk/main/jpeg mkdir: cannot create directory `./wntmsci12.pro/misc/build/jpeg-8d/': File exists /usr/bin/bash: line 1: 3612 Segmentation fault (core dumped) dmake dmake: Error code 139, while making './wntmsci12.pro/misc/build/so_built_jpeg' 1 module(s): jpeg need(s) to be rebuilt Reason(s): ERROR: error 65280 occurred while making /cygdrive/c/source/aoo-trunk/main/jpeg I have no clue to where to begin looking for the source to this error message.

Re: config error on Windows 7
Hi, > Does this path/directory - C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\ > - exist on your system? The path exist, however there was a key missing in the registry. Installing Visual studio express did not add the key specifying where to find VC. I simply added the key oowintool was looking for on line 236. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\Setup\VC\ProductDir and gave it the value "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC" After that the configure and bootstrap steps executed ok, as far as I can see. /Jonas -- View this message in context: http://openoffice.2283327.n4.nabble.com/config-error-on-Windows-7-tp4652383p4657907.html Sent from the Development mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
