47ef1ef8e6SJürgen Schmidt            <p>Apache OpenOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE% software is a complete, feature-rich
48cdf0e10cSrcweir              office productivity suite that provides, in combination with this
49cdf0e10cSrcweir			  SDK, all the essential tools for building and deploying custom
50ef1ef8e6SJürgen Schmidt			  solutions that build on, or integrate with, the Apache OpenOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE% suite
51cdf0e10cSrcweir			  of products.</p>
52ef1ef8e6SJürgen Schmidt            <p>The SDK is a development kit for Apache OpenOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE%, which
53cdf0e10cSrcweir			  eases the development of office components. It provides a set of
54cdf0e10cSrcweir			  libraries, binaries, header, and IDL files which have final API's
55cdf0e10cSrcweir			  and can only be extended with new functionality. This set of libraries
56cdf0e10cSrcweir			  and binaries is the minimum set of functions needed to use system
57cdf0e10cSrcweir			  abstraction for base functionality and for using UNO (Universal
58cdf0e10cSrcweir			  Network Objects) component technology. The UNO component model is the
59cdf0e10cSrcweir			  base of the whole Office API. The SDK provides everything necessary
60cdf0e10cSrcweir			  to use the Office API from external programs (e.g. Java, C++) or to
61cdf0e10cSrcweir			  extend the Office functionality with new components (e.g. new filter
62cdf0e10cSrcweir			  components, CalcAddin functions). It is compatible over several
63cdf0e10cSrcweir			  versions because the API remains unaffected and will only be extended
64cdf0e10cSrcweir			  with new functions.</p>
65cdf0e10cSrcweir            <p>The SDK provides the basic building blocks for external developers
66cdf0e10cSrcweir			  to develop components in any language for which a binding exists.
67ef1ef8e6SJürgen Schmidt			  Currently, there are language bindings for Apache OpenOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE% Basic, Java,
68ef1ef8e6SJürgen Schmidt			  and different C++ compilers on different platforms, for Apache OpenOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE%,
69cdf0e10cSrcweir			  thus covering the two most commonly used programming languages. There
70cdf0e10cSrcweir			  will be no limit for office automation in heterogeneous environments.
71cdf0e10cSrcweir			  Currently supported platforms of the SDK are Linux, Solaris (sparc,
72cdf0e10cSrcweir			  x86), and Windows.</p>
73cdf0e10cSrcweir            <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
7480295734SMatthias Seidel              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 available online in the Apache OpenOffice Wiki, with
75cdf0e10cSrcweir			  lots of examples, which introduce the API, explain the concepts behind
76cdf0e10cSrcweir			  it, and make it possible for all users to quickly get started with
77cdf0e10cSrcweir			  the Office API.</p>
