[dev] inspection of object crashes basic ide

2007-11-28 Thread Oliver Brinzing
Hi,

can somebody confirm this ? Open a spreadsheet document, set a breakpoint at 
msgbox run macro and try to inspect oCursor ...

oo 2.3 (Vista) crashes with a memory leak ...

Oliver


REM  *  BASIC  *
OPTION EXPLICIT

Sub Main
Dim oSheet as Object
Dim oCursor as Object

oSheet = ThisComponent.getSheets().getByIndex(0)
oCursor = oSheet.createCursor()
Wait(50)
MsgBox Set a BreakPoint at MsgBox, Enter oCursor into the watch 
field  Chr(13) _
   Try to open the [+] oCursor - OO will freeze - memory leak 

End Sub

I've installed OO 2.3 for all users and it does not work (wether 
admin nor me) and generates the Context error message

I mentioned in the earlier postings.


Do have uninstalled completely the first OOo (user only) using the 
uninstaller?


When you have the problem with the second installation are there the 
following registry keys and what are their values:


HKEY_CURRENT_USER,OFFICE_LOCATION_REGISTRY_KEY/Software/OpenOffice.org/UNO/InstallPath 


You mean HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\OpenOffice.org\Uno\InstallPath ?

Yes


It's available, but not set 
Could you delete the key and run the test again? (Assuming that you have 
uninstalled your user - only office anyway)


Joachim




HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/OpenOffice.org/UNO/InstallPath


The seems to be ok: c:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org 2.3\program

Hi Andreas,

  Ah, yes, the dark chapter of day count algorithms.. in the OASIS
  OpenDocument Format Formula specification subcommittee we struggle with
  that as well, namely for the YEARFRAC() function and all related
  financial functions that are based on it.
 
 
 Google produces some links, the most recent of which seems to be
 
 http://jackwaugh.com/it/openformula-20070125.html#6.9.23.YEARFRAC|outline
 
 which is not even on oasis-open.org. Since I didn't find anything more 
 recent, 
 I am referring to this source.

Actually that's a copy of an old and way outdated revision of the ODFF
draft, for recent revisions please see
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/documents.php?wg_abbrev=office-formula

However, the YEARFRAC algorithm uncertainty isn't fully clarified yet.

 Some day count conventions differ only slightly -- and only in some 
 particular 
 cases. So I think it will not be enough to literally describe the 
 conventions. It will not be enough to use identifiers such as act/act, 30/360 
 etc., either. At least some of them do not seem to be defined by a normative 
 source and different sources associate different conventions with these 
 identifiers -- or vice versa.

As soon as we clearly identified the algorithms in question we'll of
course add details and references.

 But even if there are normative sources -- not everybody will always have 
 easy 
 access to them.

We'd been delighted if there was any normative reference on YEARFRAC.

 I guess OO, in particular calc will implement the OpenFormula specification. 

Sure. I'll work on that the next months.

 Do you have any noncommittal indication about when the specification might be 
 finalized -- and be implemented by OO?

Roughly estimated spec finalization is scheduled for Q1 next year,
followed by public review phases and so on. Implementation is ongoing
for OOo3.0 and 3.1

 The source given above indicates, that OO 2.0.3 already has a yearfrac 
 function.  I have OO 2.0.4 but it doesn't know yearfrac...? Well, I have a 
 german version, maybe the function has a different name which I cannot find 
 out.

It's named BRTEILJAHRE in German.

 (It might be a good idea to not translate function names...

Usually users want function names to be translated, especially if
they're used to localized function names in another spreadsheet
application.

 at least to 
 always support the English names in any language whatsoever.)

That won't work as you can never be sure how localization projects would
translate a function's name and that might clash with an English name of
a different function. Future versions might have a mechanism to switch
to English names though, but not mixed localized and English names.

The key will be removed when OOo is being uninstalled. I have checked 
this with an m237. Maybe something went wrong during an earlier 
uninstallation. Good to know that it works eventually.

[dev] add an auto save to function with multi drive saves and no need for multiple saves

2007-11-28 Thread don wilson

add an auto save function to open office
an auto save function would allow open office to 
 
save an item in multiple places simultaniouslywith only one save by user
could be set as an option in a save to options menu
the ability to save to multiple drives simultaniously in the portable app or u3 
version would
dramatically increase usage and users as well as supporters
a simple pathway could be saved in the auto save menu and  automatically all 
saved docs would go there and if the pathway was invalid it could alert the 
user (an option to not alert might go here) or it could simply save to any 
other file save pathways and not to those unavailable
students who are at school at home and on many different computers could save 
to flash drive as primary and to school-personal drive as secondary and to home 
drive as teritiary
this might be best as an extention for newer versions and could help a lot of 
people convert to your software

Re: [dev] Could I use the property Help of css.text.TextField.Input to store additional metadata

 Hi,
 
 Im searching for a textfield that is editable like a
 css.text.TextField.Input and in which I could store additional
 metadata that should not be displayed on userside, but evaluated by
 our custom component. The service css.text.TextField.Input seem to
 have an undocumented property called Help that is not displayed on
 userside. Unfortunately this property is not documented (#84052), so I
 don't have got a feeling for the origin purpose of this property. Do
 you think I could use this property to store my additional metadata?
 Is there a better way of storing metadata within an editable
 textfield?

OOo3.0 hopefully will support ODF 1.2 meta data. I don't remember
exactly what this Help property is about. IIRC it's a popup help text
that is displayed when the user moves the mouse cursor over the field.
That would match the description element of input fields in ODF.

Ciao,
Mathias
