From koffice Fri Jun 30 21:26:29 2000 From: Thomas Zander Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2000 21:26:29 +0000 To: koffice Subject: portability X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=koffice&m=96240047108736 How do we handle portability of old docs if a change is made in the file structure? Since we are not even beta yet.. Some values from the frameset are really frame specific, therefor I moved them. Problem is that old format xml files now give errors because the variables are not found at the frame (and are ignored at the frameset) While a hack to preserve backward compatibility is possible I believe that at this point of development it won't be needed. All current files will lose information like header and footer, or must be run through a simple filter. Anyone has a different opinion? -- Thomas Zander zander@earthling.net The only thing worse than failure is the fear of trying something new
