Important Notes

DEV300_m60 was the last build towards OOo 3.2 from this codeline. Then a branch was done to release from the OOO320 codeline.

The next branch date is scheduled here: OOo 3.3.


What's new?

Feature title TaskId Spec. title Description Dev. owner Spec. link Component
allow to overrule Base's heuristics for primary key support i104329   There's a new option "Supports primary keys" in the Advanced Settings of a database, which is to overrule Base's heuristics used to detect whether the database it connects to supports primary keys. This new option is available for database connections via ODBC, JDBC, and ADO. frank.schoenheit@sun.com   dba
SRB: AddField dialog now accessible via ALT+F8 i104836   In the Sun Report Designer the Add Field dialog can be accessed via the accelerator key ALT+F8. ocke.janssen@sun.com   dba
text(-like) input form controls also support the "Vertical Alignment" property i106184   Input form controls (text fields etc.) now also support the "Vertical Align" property known from non-input controls like fixed texts etc. frank.schoenheit@sun.com   dba
Base now supports database registrations configured as read-only i84012   Database registrations are normally maintained via Tools/Options/Databases. The registrations are stored in OpenOffice.org's configuration, which means it is also possible to deploy additional configuration fragments (e.g. via extensions) which contain additional registrations. If those configuration fragments are declared as read-only (by using the usual configuration mechanisms for this), then the UI now respects this, by disallowing modifications (editions, removal) of this registration entry. frank.schoenheit@sun.com   dba
testtool: Enable tabswitching on named dialog i104281   Old behaviour to switch tab pages on a dialog looks like: kontext active.setPage nameOfPage kontext "nameOfPage" This lead to problems in case another messagebox is also open - which is also of type 'active'. Now it is possible to name the dialog with: kontext "dialogName" dialogName.setPage nameOfPage kontext "nameOfPage" in addition to the old behaviour, where available. tbo@openoffice.org   qa
Feature title TaskId Spec. title Description Dev. owner Spec. link Component
Allow to show UI during Gnome session shutdown. i105172   The new implementation allows now to let office show a dialog on Gnome shutdown in case there is a modified document. Mikhail.Voytenko@Sun.COM   framework
editing custom properties of type 'Duration' i97029 Custom Document Properties Current implementation supports only four text field info1 to 4. The new implementation allows to create user defined name value pairs of a certain data type. This is important for document management in companies. Frank Loehmann (FL) speclink framework
Feature title TaskId Spec. title Description Dev. owner Spec. link Component
form controls (some of them) use the same text rendering as the containing document i105717   Form controls in text documents now render their text the same way the document itself does, thus making the appearance of controls as part of a text flow much more consistent. frank.schoenheit@sun.com   framework
Feature title TaskId Spec. title Description Dev. owner Spec. link Component
Allow duplicate field names in PDF export i103932 PDF Export Dialog t is now possible to allow the same name for multiple fields in PDF export. The default is to still make the field names unique when exporting to PDF. speclink gsl

buildverbosity
quiten the build.

The idea is to bring some new life into the former idea of three
different build verbosity levels
(http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS/entry/shut_up_or_better_tell)
where "quiet" ("verbose=false") emits nearly no output, "debug"
("verbose=true") quite excessive output, and "normal" ("verbose"
not set) something inbetween.

The current output of a build is more like one would expect from
a "debug" level, so a lot of the current output will be silenced,
and only emitted if explicitly requested.
