It provides a set of 31cdf0e10cSrcweir libraries, binaries, header, and IDL files which have final API's 32cdf0e10cSrcweir and can only be extended with new functionality. This set of libraries 33cdf0e10cSrcweir and binaries is the minimum set of functions needed to use system 34cdf0e10cSrcweir abstraction for base functionality and for using UNO (Universal 35cdf0e10cSrcweir Network Objects) component technology. The UNO component model is the 36cdf0e10cSrcweir base of the whole Office API. The SDK provides everything necessary 37cdf0e10cSrcweir to use the Office API from external programs (e.g. Java, C++) or to 38cdf0e10cSrcweir extend the Office functionality with new components (e.g. new filter 39cdf0e10cSrcweir components, CalcAddin functions). It is compatible over several 40cdf0e10cSrcweir versions because the API remains unaffected and will only be extended 41cdf0e10cSrcweir with new functions.</p> 42cdf0e10cSrcweir <p>The SDK provides the basic building blocks for external developers 43cdf0e10cSrcweir to develop components in any language for which a binding exists. 44*ef1ef8e6SJürgen Schmidt Currently, there are language bindings for Apache OpenOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE% Basic, Java, 45*ef1ef8e6SJürgen Schmidt and different C++ compilers on different platforms, for Apache OpenOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE%, 46cdf0e10cSrcweir thus covering the two most commonly used programming languages. There 47cdf0e10cSrcweir will be no limit for office automation in heterogeneous environments. 48cdf0e10cSrcweir Currently supported platforms of the SDK are Linux, Solaris (sparc, 49cdf0e10cSrcweir x86), and Windows.</p> 50cdf0e10cSrcweir <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*ef1ef8e6SJürgen Schmidt for the API and a complete <a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/Apache OpenOffice_Developers_Guide" title="link to the Developer's Guide in the Wiki">Developer's Guide</a> is availbale online in the Apache OpenOffice Wiki, with 52cdf0e10cSrcweir lots of examples, which introduce the API, explain the concepts behind 53cdf0e10cSrcweir it, and make it possible for all users to quickly get started with 54cdf0e10cSrcweir the Office API.</p> 55cdf0e10cSrcweir </td> 56cdf0e10cSrcweir <td><img class="nothing8" src="docs/images/nada.gif"></td> 57cdf0e10cSrcweir </tr> 58cdf0e10cSrcweir <tr> 59cdf0e10cSrcweir <td><img class="nothing8" src="docs/images/nada.gif"></td> 60cdf0e10cSrcweir <td><img class="line" src="docs/images/sdk_line-1.gif"></td> 61cdf0e10cSrcweir <td><img class="nothing8" src="docs/images/nada.gif"></td> 62cdf0e10cSrcweir </tr> 63cdf0e10cSrcweir <tr> 64cdf0e10cSrcweir <td><img class="nothing8" src="docs/images/nada.gif"></td> 65cdf0e10cSrcweir <td> 66cdf0e10cSrcweir <table class="table3"> 67cdf0e10cSrcweir <tr valign="top"> 68cdf0e10cSrcweir <td colspan="4" class="head1">Content</td> 69cdf0e10cSrcweir </tr> 70cdf0e10cSrcweir <tr> 71cdf0e10cSrcweir <td colspan="4"><img class="nothing8" src="docs/images/nada.gif"></td> 72cdf0e10cSrcweir </tr> 73cdf0e10cSrcweir <tr valign="top"> 74cdf0e10cSrcweir <td class="content4"><img src="docs/images/arrow-1.gif"></td> 75cdf0e10cSrcweir <td colspan="2"><a href="docs/install.html" title="link to the installation guide">Installation Guide</a></td> 76cdf0e10cSrcweir <td class="content70">An overview of all necessary 77cdf0e10cSrcweir installation steps (e.g. environment variables) to use this SDK.</td> 78cdf0e10cSrcweir </tr> 79cdf0e10cSrcweir <tr valign="middle"> 80cdf0e10cSrcweir <td><img class="nothing10" src="docs/images/nada.gif"></td> 81cdf0e10cSrcweir <td colspan="3"><img class="line" src="docs/images/sdk_line-1.gif"></td> 82cdf0e10cSrcweir </tr> 83cdf0e10cSrcweir <tr valign="top"> 84cdf0e10cSrcweir <td class="content4"><img src="docs/images/arrow-1.gif"></td> 85*ef1ef8e6SJürgen Schmidt <td colspan="2"><a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/Apache OpenOffice_Developers_Guide" title="link to the Developer's Guide in the Wiki">Developer's Guide</a></td> 86*ef1ef8e6SJürgen Schmidt <td class="content70">Detailed documentation, explaining the Apache OpenOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE% 87cdf0e10cSrcweir API and the concepts behind it, with a rich set of examples, 88cdf0e10cSrcweir implemented mainly in Java.
