Hi,
Thanks Terry for your response, those pointers helped me out. The
versioning is handled by the source code repository rather than
anything internal to OpenOffice. Here's the solution I am now using
happily:
---------8<-Macro -------------
sub CompareWithCommitted
dim document as object
dim dispatcher as object
document = ThisComponent.CurrentController.Frame
dispatcher = createUnoService("com.sun.star.frame.DispatchHelper")
Shell("getLastRevision.sh", 2, ThisComponent.URL, true)
dim args1(0) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
args1(0).Name = "ShowTrackedChanges"
args1(0).Value = true
dispatcher.executeDispatch(document, ".uno:ShowTrackedChanges", "", 0,
args1())
properties = []
dim p(0) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
p(0).Name = "URL"
p(0).Value = ThisComponent.URL + ".COMMITTED"
dispatcher.executeDispatch(document, ".uno:CompareDocuments", "", 0, p())
end sub
---------8<--------------
I wrote the following shell script getLastRevision.sh and placed it in my path
---------8<--------------
url="$1"
if [ "${url:0:7}" == "file://" ]; then
path="${url:7}"
dir="${path%/*}"
file="${path##*/}"
if [ -d "$dir" ]; then
cd "$dir"
if [ -f ".svn/entries" ]; then
svn cat -r COMMITTED "$file" >"${file}.COMMITTED"
else
xmessage "$file is not in SVN"
fi
else
xmessage "Directory $dir does not exist"
fi
else
xmessage "URL $url not handled"
fi
---------8<--------------
Cheers,
Len.

Subject: [users] Compare Document with previous version retrieved from source

I take it that the compare function in File >Versions does not suit?
There are several threads in the forum including these:

There is another service for searching source code: http://go-oo.org/lxr/
