Introducing my self and my goals.
Hello everyone my name is Iraklis Moutidis and I am a MSc student at
Computer Science Department of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki
(Greece). I have 3 years experience with C++, and 2 years experience with
Java. I need to contribute to an open source project for the duration of
this semester (ending in January). The main goal of the class is to write
and contribute code to an open source project. I was hoping I could help
with Development 3- 4 hours a week for this time. I am also interested to
continue participating to the project after the end of my class.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Damjan this is really helpful.
I got another question about building the module. After doing these changes
to the files. I did as the guide for MYFUNC describes. How can i build the
project and then use the function i created on the calc project?
Can you provide the commands that i should enter and in which folder?
I builded the project with compatible build but i can not find the MYFUNC
function into the Calc.
I don't want to distract you from your work so please answer when you
really got the time.
Thanks a lot.

Hi Iraklis
Sorry I am busy now, but you can look at good recent examples such as:
https://github.com/apache/openoffice/commit/a940b7f5cefd1b23dbfa1cdbe809d97d526161b9
https://github.com/apache/openoffice/commit/0f94c4d7250ff31ff210c7bfaad70c19b316c99c
Good luck
Damjan

Re: Introducing my self and my goals.
Posted by Ηρακλής Μουτίδης <im...@gmail.com>.
Dear Damjan,
I have rebuilded everything, passing
--with-package-format="installed" to ./configure
I got some more questions about the
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Calc/Implementation/Spreadsheet_Functions
guide.
Some files that need to be modified are only into the formula folder not
the sc one (compiler.hrc, opcode.hxx).
Should i proceed with the guide? I did something wrong?
Also in the publish the function in the function wizard section when i try
to build the project it returns a syntax error in the following definition:
#define HID_FUNC_MYFUNC
(HID_SC_FUNC_DUMMY+(ID_FUNCTION_GRP_MATH*ID_FUNCTION_OFFSET)+56)
After i removed it the build succeeded.
Is there any other simple example?
Thank you for your time.
Regards,
Iraklis

A number of files under main/formula and main/sc change, but yes the actual
implementation is in the sc/source/core/tool/interpr?.cxx files.

There is various possibilities, see
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO#Partial_Builds
The first time you should probably rebuild everything, passing
--with-package-format="installed" to ./configure so you have a premade
installation under
main/instsetoo_native/<platform>/Apache_OpenOffice/installed/install/en-US/openoffice4/program
that AOO can immediately be run from (--with-package-format="archive
installed" does that and also builds the traditional tarball, but that
takes much longer). After that you should only be tweaking files in
main/sc, not main/formula, so you can use the "compatible build" in the
above link. When you're down to making changes in only main/sc, you can
even just run "build" in the main/sc directory, then run "deliver" to see
which files it copies, and then overwrite those same files in your
OpenOffice installation under
main/instsetoo_native/<platform>/Apache_OpenOffice/installed/install/en-US/openoffice4/program
with those, which is much faster than even the compatible build, as it
doesn't rebuild the entire output tree.

That depends on how the function is defined in ODFF. For example the
"Syntax" for the ROMAN function (
http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part2.html#__RefHeading__1018832_715980110)
takes Integer, and you can see how it's implemented in
ScInterpreter::ScRoman() in main/sc/source/core/tool/interpr2.cxx. On the
other hand, our unimplemented IFERROR (
http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part2.html#__RefHeading__1018448_715980110)
takes Any, so it probably does have to handle non-scalar variables.

Re: Introducing my self and my goals.
Posted by Ηρακλής Μουτίδης <im...@gmail.com>.
Dear Damjan,
I am working on implementing the Calc functions. I am reading the guide
(Calc/Implementations/Spreadsheet Functions) and got some questions.
First of all the actual implementation of the function will be on one of
the sc/source/core/tool/interpr?.cxx files?
Second how can i run a simple test implementation? Do i have to rebuilt the
whole project again?
and lastly will the functions in my case have any non scalar variables?
I got a little overwhelmed by the project i hope i didn't ask anything
silly.
Best regards,
Iraklis

Re: Introducing my self and my goals.

Hi Iraklis
all the standard parts are at
https://www.oasis-open.org/standards#opendocumentv1.2
You will find it in odt and pdf file-format, and a zip-container with
all of them too.
Kind regards
Regina

Dear Damjam,
I started to work on the Calc functions you sugested. But the link for the
ODF formula specification at
http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part2.htm does
not work.
Is there any other website where i can get information about the formulas?
Best regards,
Iraklis

Dear Damjan, Jatin and Wlada,
I am going to start working on the issues Wlada suggested and the missing

Thanks a lot for your time.
Jatin thank you for letting me know good luck on your project.
Best regards,
Iraklis

Re: Introducing my self and my goals.
Posted by Damjan Jovanovic <da...@apache.org>.
Hi Iraklis
If you're looking for something small, you could try implementing a few
missing Calc functions from
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Calc/ODFF_Implementation/Examine_functions
based on the guide at
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Calc/Implementation/Spreadsheet_Functions
and the ODF formula specification at
http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part2.htm.
The IFERROR and ISNA functions would be good to have.
There is no shortage of big things either :-). Here's a few off the top of
my head:
* An OOXML export filter would be a big help to our users, but I think
that's probably too difficult - the specification a 6000 page document. It
might be possible to use the Apache POI project which already provides
OOXML reading and writing in Java.
* Calc doesn't provide whole row/column references like C:C or 5:5 while
Excel does, which are helpful to use in implicit intersection, among others
(eg. in cell E34, you don't need to use D34 to refer to the cell just to
the left, you can just type D:D and it will automatically use the current
row).
* CSV file support in Base could be reimplemented to use the HSQLDB
database which already supports CSV, which would allow the full range of
SQL queries with joins, grouping, correlated subqueries, scalar operators,
and other advanced features that the current CSV file support doesn't
provide. This would also involve some work on HSQLDB to get CSV parsing
working exactly how it does now. Also spreadsheets are equally badly
supported as a data source in Base, and by extending HSQLDB a bit, the
spreadsheet support could be reimplemented using HSQLDB to provide the same
powerful query capabilities CSV would have.
If you need other ideas, look through Bugzilla. Please let me know if you
decide.

Damjan

Re: Introducing my self and my goals.

Hi Iraklis
Sorry for the late reply.
Writer and Impress have their wiki pages on:
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Writer
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Impress
Writer is our biggest user-facing application, double the size of the next
biggest (Calc). If you want to get started with them, finding issues with
Bugzilla is probably best. I've never developed either, so if you are still
looking for development suggestions from me, they will have to be on other
things for now.
Regards
Damjan

Hi Iraklis
That's great :-).
Is there any areas of OpenOffice that interest you, or that you use often?
It's a large project, and it's hard to know what to suggest you get started
with.

Damjan

Dear Damjan,
I just finished compiling OpenOffice on Ububtu 14.04.
After a few failed attempts i finally did it :).
Although i got an error message on the last installation command the
program works just fine.
the error was:( Processing triggers for shared-mime-info (1.2-0ubuntu3) ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
unxlngx6.pro/Apache_OpenOffice/deb/install/en-US/DEBS/desktop-integration/openoffice4.2-debian-menus_4.2-9800_all.deb
)
I will continue reading the links you provided.

Hi Iraklis
Alright I'll prepare some easy things to get you started.
In the meanwhile you should probably start by checking out the source code
from SVN and getting it to compile:
http://openoffice.apache.org/source.html
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO
and do some reading on our website/wiki while it's compiling:
http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/intro-development.html.
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Hacking
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Source_code_directories
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Architecture/Process_Flow
What platform are you on?

That's great, welcome to Apache OpenOffice :-).

Feel free to email this mailing list with any development issues or
questions, and if you'd like someone to mentor you, I am available.
Thank you
