• Convert from and to OpenDocument (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Wed, 23 Dec 2009 13:19:22 +0100

  Yesterday the latest stable release of the eZ Components project, number 2009.2, was rolled. For this release I worked on support for OpenDocumentText (ODT) in the Document component. In this article I show you how you can import OpenDocumentText documents and convert them into any of the supported formats of the component, how to export data into ODT and how to apply styles to the generated documents. You will also see how ODT and PDF can be exported with the very same styling information to make them look almost identical. [Read full post…]

• An awful lot of files in SVN (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Thu, 04 Jun 2009 08:31:49 +0200

  Derick was always bitching at me when doing releases for the huge amount of time needed to process the Webdav components sub directory. We always supposed, that the Subversion performance issues here resulted from the Webdav test suite, which consists of an awful lot of small test files and some sub-directories. I finally found the time to refactor the tests and the performance improvement is astonishing. [Read full post…]

• GOSUB for PHP (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Wed, 01 Apr 2009 23:25:28 +0200

  Since version 5.3 PHP supports the GOTO statement. While this statement is useful to solve daily programming tasks like implementing finite state machines, it has some serious drawbacks against other programming languages that support the structured programming paradigm. Therefore the PHP core developers decided with one voice to enhance the language by a GOSUB statement. [Read full post…]

• Everything new (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Wed, 03 Dec 2008 01:46:34 +0100

  As you will have noticed, when reading this page, I brought my new website online. Although I was quiet satisfied with Serendipity, I decided by May this year, that I wanted to bring up a real website again. Since October 2005 I only maintained my web log and my photo gallery on Flickr, due to missing time and lack of motivation to raise a real website again. Now that changed, with switching to WCV.
