This is the glossary of the Drawing framework of the Impress and Draw applications.
Contents
Application Layer
Part of the drawing framework design that contains modules that implement application logic. A typical modul in this layer requests the activation or deactivation of a resource as reaction to user input or the activation or deactivation of another resource. An example is the SlideSorterModule that shows or hides the slide sorter bar depending on the view that is displayed in the center pane.
Command Group
A module that implements the com::sun::star::frame::XDispatch interface and that provides one or more commands.
Configuration
Set of active resources. A configuration may look like
private:resource/floater/CenterPane
private:resource/toolbar/ViewTabBar
private:resource/view/ImpressView
private:resource/floater/LeftImpressPane
private:resource/view/SlideSorter
private:resource/floater/RightPane
private:resource/view/TaskPane
which is the pretty version of
private:resource/floater/CenterPane
private:resource/floater/CenterPane private:resource/toolbar/ViewTabBar
private:resource/floater/CenterPane private:resource/view/ImpressView
private:resource/floater/LeftImpressPane
private:resource/floater/LeftImpressPane private:resource/view/SlideSorter
private:resource/floater/RightPane
private:resource/floater/RightPane private:resource/view/TaskPane
where the target URLs are in the left column and the resource URLs are in the right column. The target URLs for the panes are of course not present.
Current Configuration
Configuration that contains the currently active resources. This may or may not be identical to the requested configuration.
Requested Configuration
Configuration that contains the resources whose activation has been requested. This may or may not be identical to the current configuration.
Resource
Resources known to the drawing framework are
- panes,
- views,
- tool bars, and
- command groups.
This set can be extended by providing resource controllers and factories for other resources. Resource are described by ResourceIds.
ResourceId
A schema of two URLs to describe a resource managed by the drawing framework.
The resource URL describes the type of the URL. The optional second URL specifies the anchor to which the resource is bound. Two examples are
private:resource/floater/LeftImpressPane, private:/view/SlideSorter
and
private:resource/floater/CenterPane, private:/view/SlideSorter
that describe the slide sorter bar in the left pane and the slide sorter view in the center pane.
Resource Layer
Part of the drawing framework design that contains the resource controllers and factories that know how to activate or deactivate individual resources. Objects in this layer are typically called by the XConfigurationController in the synchronization layer as a result to requests from modules in the application layer.
Synchronization Layer
Part of the drawing framework design that synchronizes requests made by modules in the application layer and resource controllers and factories in the resource layer. This layer basically consists of the XResourceControllers and supporting classes.
