NOTES
=====
Activate the New Chart
----------------------
After installation of an Office, you will still get the old chart
implementation. In order to get the new implementation you have to activate it
via the configuration.
Set the boolean Config-Item Office.Common/Internal:DevelopmentChart to true.
HOW-TO:
* Open the file Common.xcu of the Registry.
Location on Unix:
$HOME/StarOffice8/user/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/Common.xcu
Location on Windows:
"%UserProfile%\Application Data\StarOffice8\user\registry\data\org\openoffice\Office\Common.xcu"
* Under the configuration-node "Internal" (see <node oor:name="Internal"> tag)
you have to add the property "DevelopmentChart" and set this to "true":
* Add the following after the "Internal"-node:
<prop oor:name="DevelopmentChart" oor:type="xs:boolean">
<value>true</value>
</prop>
After that, your Common.xcu may look like this:
,----[ Common.xcu example ]
| <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
| <oor:component-data xmlns:oor="http://openoffice.org/2001/registry" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" oor:name="Common" oor:package="org.openoffice.Office">
| <node oor:name="Internal">
| <prop oor:name="DevelopmentChart" oor:type="xs:boolean">
| <value>true</value>
| </prop>
| <prop oor:name="CurrentTempURL" oor:type="xs:string">
| <value/>
| </prop>
| </node>
| <node oor:name="Help">
| <node oor:name="Registration">
| <prop oor:name="ReminderDate" oor:type="xs:string">
| <value xsi:nil="true"/>
| </prop>
| <prop oor:name="RequestDialog" oor:type="xs:int">
| <value>0</value>
| </prop>
| </node>
| </node>
| <node oor:name="Misc">
| <prop oor:name="FirstRun" oor:type="xs:boolean">
| <value>false</value>
| </prop>
| </node>
| </oor:component-data>
`----
* To switch back, you can either replace the "true" by a "false", or you can
delete the complete "DevelopmentChart" property (the three lines) you
inserted.
FileDataSource
--------------
For testing the FileDataSource: Currently the following files are read (hard-coded)
* Win: D:\files\data.chd
* Unix: /work/data/data.chd
You can find sample data in workbench/sampledata
Testing
-------
* To create a chart using the abovementioned file for data, Call the menu item
'File/Save all'. To rebuild the chart call 'File/Save'.
* You can also create a chart from spreadsheet data.
* To run a test for the old API run "dmake" in the qa subdirectory. Note that
you have to deliver the private chart2.rdb (just type "deliver") and call the
workbench/officeintegration/install.pl script for registering the private
Chart API at the global registry in order to run the test. Currently the test
has to use new API, but in the future this will of course no longer be
necessary.
For running the API-test you must have a running office with the correct
parameters that allow remote access from external components (like the API
test). Use the following command-line argument:
"-accept=socket,host=0,port=8100;urp"
With host=0 you allow access only from your local machine, so this should be
no network security problem.
