------- Additional comments from dcz_ellumin...@openoffice.org Thu Jan 29 23:42:32 +0000 2009 ------- The Info.plist file included in the Mac OS X native bundle contains the text: <!--- Microsoft Excel XML --> Our application uses JDOM to parse the Info.plist to determine which distribution (OOo vs. NeoOffice vs. StarOffice) and version is installed. When JDOM parses this XML, it throws the following exception: org.jdom.IllegalDataException: The data "- Microsoft Excel XML " is not legal for a JDOM comment: Comment data cannot start with a hyphen.. at org.jdom.Comment.setText(Comment.java:120) at org.jdom.Comment.<init>(Comment.java:86) To be excruciatingly correct XML, the Info.plist text cited above should be changed to read: <!-- Microsoft Excel XML --> Once this is done, JDOM can parse it just fine. This text is present in the Info.plist for both 3.0.0 and 3.0.1. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
