47*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski            <p>Apache OpenOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE% software is a complete, feature-rich
48*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski              office productivity suite that provides, in combination with this
49*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  SDK, all the essential tools for building and deploying custom
50*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  solutions that build on, or integrate with, the Apache OpenOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE% suite
51*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  of products.</p>
52*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski            <p>The SDK is a development kit for Apache OpenOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE%, which
53*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  eases the development of office components. It provides a set of
54*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  libraries, binaries, header, and IDL files which have final API's
55*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  and can only be extended with new functionality. This set of libraries
56*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  and binaries is the minimum set of functions needed to use system
57*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  abstraction for base functionality and for using UNO (Universal
58*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  Network Objects) component technology. The UNO component model is the
59*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  base of the whole Office API. The SDK provides everything necessary
60*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  to use the Office API from external programs (e.g. Java, C++) or to
61*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  extend the Office functionality with new components (e.g. new filter
62*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  components, CalcAddin functions). It is compatible over several
63*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  versions because the API remains unaffected and will only be extended
64*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  with new functions.</p>
65*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski            <p>The SDK provides the basic building blocks for external developers
66*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  to develop components in any language for which a binding exists.
67*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  Currently, there are language bindings for Apache OpenOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE% Basic, Java,
68*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  and different C++ compilers on different platforms, for Apache OpenOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE%,
69*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  thus covering the two most commonly used programming languages. There
70*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  will be no limit for office automation in heterogeneous environments.
71*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  Currently supported platforms of the SDK are Linux, Solaris (sparc,
72*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  x86), and Windows.</p>
73*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski            <p>The SDK also contains <a href="docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/module-ix.html" title="link to the IDL reference documentation"> reference</a> documentation
74*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski              for the API and a complete <a href="https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide" title="link to the Developer's Guide in the Wiki">Developer's Guide</a> is availbale online in the Apache OpenOffice Wiki, with
75*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  lots of examples, which introduce the API, explain the concepts behind
76*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  it, and make it possible for all users to quickly get started with
77*b1cdbd2cSJim Jagielski			  the Office API.</p>
