Hello all,
My name is Sameer, am a student. I started programming a few months
ago. I came in touch with FOSS a while back and have completely
switched to FOSS recently. I am a hardcore fan of LibreOffice and use
it all my college work.
Welcome!
I heard about contributing to the project from a friend and cloned the
libreoffice/core/ source into my PC.
I'm quite new to programming, I'm decently skilled at C++.
I had a few questions regarding the codebase:
* Where can I find the code which operates upon the comments system
in Writer? Like,..the way comments are associated with the rest of
the document.
Am I right you are asking this because of following GSoC project:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Gsoc/Ideas#Comments_improvements
? I'm not that familiar with the workflow of GSoC, but as far I know you
need to send an 'application' to work on particular projects, and that
only 1 developer can work on 1 project. Are the projects already
distributed among the participants? If not, I recommend to wait start
working on this project and have a look at the EasyHacks
(https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Easy_Hacks_by_Difficulty)
to get a bit confident with LibreOffice code base. Otherwise there are
also some bugs regarding comments which you can find on BugZilla
(https://bugs.freedesktop.org/buglist.cgi?list_id=281559&short_desc=comment&query_format=advanced&bug_status=NEW&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&component=Writer&product=LibreOffice).
Anyhow:
Based on my own experience (https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/2572/)
with comments I can redirect you to following folder: sw/source/ui/docvw/
I hope another developer can add some interesting links too :)?
* Where is the code that passes the document to a printer when a
print command is issued?
Any help would be highly appreciated!
Kind regards,
Joren
