Splash Screen showed twice when start?
Hi,
I was running automation GUI testing on r1372282. I found one thing that I
am not sure it is a problem.
To reproduce this scenario, the first thing is to delete user installation
directory.
User installation directory is here:
Linux: /home/username/.openoffice.org/3/
Windows: C:\Users\IBM_ADMIN\AppData\Roaming\OpenOffice.org\3
Mac: /home/username/Library/Application Support/OpenOffice.org/3
Then you can start openoffice. You will find the splash screen will show
twice on windows and mac.
It did not happen on the last snapshot build r1369843.
I just wonder why the splash screen showed twice when there is only one
process. Or is it a problem of AOO?

Thanks for your explanation, Juergen.
It is very clear:)

It is normal because we bundle now the minimizer and presenter screen as
pre-registered extensions. This triggers an automatic restart of the
office during the first start.
One plan is to integrate both extension in the core directly because
they are more or less default features when we bundle them. The code is
from us and there is no demand to bundle it as extensions. The
extensions came from earlier days where some people had clever ideas in
mind ;-)
The integration in the core will also improve the startup performance
and will eliminate the overhead to bundle it as extensions, special
handling during the pack process and during the installation.
But again for now it is the correct behaviour.
