| </P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">Beginning with src680m25 the |
| concept of undefining global IDs is introduced. This is a very |
| important, if a new product shall be created. Because many of our |
| products are very similar, it is better, to define only the |
| difference of two setup scripts. Even OpenOffice.org, StarOffice and |
| StarOfficeMulti can be defined by describing only the differences |
| compared to OpenOffice.org. Therefore all scp files need only to be |
| build once, which reduces the build time of the scp projects |
| dramatically. Furthermore definitions like OSL_PRODUCT, FAT_PRODUCT |
| or FAM_PRODUCT are no longer required, which increases the |
| readability of scp files.</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">The introduction of |
| difference-files leads to the introduction of product families:</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">OpenOffice.org -> StarOffice |
| -> StarOfficeMulti</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">Adabas -> AdabasMulti</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">This means, that OpenOffice.org |
| and Adabas are base products. A StarOffice uses the same scp files as |
| OpenOffice.org and contains some additional scp files, in which new |
| global IDs are defined and other global IDs are undefined.</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">The undefining of a global ID is |
| a very simple process. To undefine the file defined with the global |
| ID ''gid_File_Lib_Abc'', you only have to include in one of the scp |
| files, that are part of the product, the following line:</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif"><B>UnFile gid_File_Lib_Abc</B></FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">That's all! You only have to list |
| the global ID and the item type, with an ''Un'', before the keyword |
| used for the definition. Take care, all strings are case sensitive!</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">You can also use:</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">UnInstallation<BR>UnHelpText<BR>UnStarRegistry<BR>UnDataCarrier<BR>....</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">and so on. </FONT> |
| </P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">If you want to undefine a file |
| that is added to a module, you also only have to write this one |
| undefinition line. The process of removal of non defined global IDs |
| from modules, automatically removes the global ID from the module |
| definition.</FONT></P> |
