It provides a set of 31*cdf0e10cSrcweir libraries, binaries, header, and IDL files which have final API's 32*cdf0e10cSrcweir and can only be extended with new functionality. This set of libraries 33*cdf0e10cSrcweir and binaries is the minimum set of functions needed to use system 34*cdf0e10cSrcweir abstraction for base functionality and for using UNO (Universal 35*cdf0e10cSrcweir Network Objects) component technology. The UNO component model is the 36*cdf0e10cSrcweir base of the whole Office API. The SDK provides everything necessary 37*cdf0e10cSrcweir to use the Office API from external programs (e.g. Java, C++) or to 38*cdf0e10cSrcweir extend the Office functionality with new components (e.g. new filter 39*cdf0e10cSrcweir components, CalcAddin functions).

There 47*cdf0e10cSrcweir will be no limit for office automation in heterogeneous environments. 48*cdf0e10cSrcweir Currently supported platforms of the SDK are Linux, Solaris (sparc, 49*cdf0e10cSrcweir x86), and Windows.</p> 50*cdf0e10cSrcweir <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 51*cdf0e10cSrcweir for the API and a complete <a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/OpenOffice.org_Developers_Guide" title="link to the Developer's Guide in the Wiki">Developer's Guide</a> is availbale online in the OpenOffice.org Wiki, with 52*cdf0e10cSrcweir lots of examples, which introduce the API, explain the concepts behind 53*cdf0e10cSrcweir it, and make it possible for all users to quickly get started with 54*cdf0e10cSrcweir the Office API.</p> 55*cdf0e10cSrcweir </td> 56*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td><img class="nothing8" src="docs/images/nada.gif"></td> 57*cdf0e10cSrcweir </tr> 58*cdf0e10cSrcweir <tr> 59*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td><img class="nothing8" src="docs/images/nada.gif"></td> 60*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td><img class="line" src="docs/images/sdk_line-1.gif"></td> 61*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td><img class="nothing8" src="docs/images/nada.gif"></td> 62*cdf0e10cSrcweir </tr> 63*cdf0e10cSrcweir <tr> 64*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td><img class="nothing8" src="docs/images/nada.gif"></td> 65*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td> 66*cdf0e10cSrcweir <table class="table3"> 67*cdf0e10cSrcweir <tr valign="top"> 68*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td colspan="4" class="head1">Content</td> 69*cdf0e10cSrcweir </tr> 70*cdf0e10cSrcweir <tr> 71*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td colspan="4"><img class="nothing8" src="docs/images/nada.gif"></td> 72*cdf0e10cSrcweir </tr> 73*cdf0e10cSrcweir <tr valign="top"> 74*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td class="content4"><img src="docs/images/arrow-1.gif"></td> 75*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td colspan="2"><a href="docs/install.html" title="link to the installation guide">Installation Guide</a></td> 76*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td class="content70">An overview of all necessary 77*cdf0e10cSrcweir installation steps (e.g. environment variables) to use this SDK.</td> 78*cdf0e10cSrcweir </tr> 79*cdf0e10cSrcweir <tr valign="middle"> 80*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td><img class="nothing10" src="docs/images/nada.gif"></td> 81*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td colspan="3"><img class="line" src="docs/images/sdk_line-1.gif"></td> 82*cdf0e10cSrcweir </tr> 83*cdf0e10cSrcweir <tr valign="top"> 84*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td class="content4"><img src="docs/images/arrow-1.gif"></td> 85*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td colspan="2"><a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/OpenOffice.org_Developers_Guide" title="link to the Developer's Guide in the Wiki">Developer's Guide</a></td> 86*cdf0e10cSrcweir <td class="content70">Detailed documentation, explaining the OpenOffice.org %PRODUCT_RELEASE% 87*cdf0e10cSrcweir API and the concepts behind it, with a rich set of examples, 88*cdf0e10cSrcweir implemented mainly in Java.
