Hi, While reviewing Windows installer code, I stumbled upon Java filters for mobile devices. Their registration was broken for a long time, nevertheless nobody complained. These filters are for Palm and Pocket PC office software, AportisDoc, PocketWord and PocketExcel. They are not part of the default LibreOffice installation on Windows. I wonder, if someone out there is using them.
Source lives in xmerge module. There I found many "useless" code. * xmerge\source\activesync\ - ActiveSync 3.5 support, not built, a pre-built DLL is delivered to solver and packaged. It is not registered. Registration fails on Windows 7, The module "xmergesync.dll" was loaded but the call to DllRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80070002. * xmerge\source\htmlsoff\ - delivered to solver but not packaged * xmerge\source\minicalc\ - filter for MiniCalc format (Palm), not built, not packaged * xmerge\source\regutil\ - not built, not delivered. I wonder why they needed this at all, stock regsvr32.exe has the same functionality. * xmerge\source\wordsmith\ - a filter for WordSmith format (whatever it is), not built, not packaged XMerge framework (see http://www.openoffice.org/xml/xmerge/) is not entirely useless, a LaTeX ans XHTML export filter extension uses it (http://writer2latex.sourceforge.net/). Before I spend more time on fixing registration of these components under Windows, I would like to know, if you see a future for this xmerge platform and for existing filters in particular.
