Four layout extensions for OpenOffice.org Writer

10-27-2008 01:00 AM
OpenOffice.org Writer is as much a desktop publishing program as a word processor. That fact, however, has yet to have much influence on the extensions created for Writer -- perhaps because most users prefer manual formatting to organizing themselves with page styles, templates, and other elements of document design. Still, extensions for layout are starting to appear, as demonstrated by four extensions that help you automate layout: Alba, which manages page orientation; Pagination and Pager, which manage page numbering; and Template Changer, which allows you to change the template, and therefore the entire layout of documents, on the fly. And all but one of these extensions use styles and templates, the way that OpenOffice.org is built to work, which means that they are highly stable.

NAME
Pod::WSDL::Writer - Writes XML output for Pod::WSDL (internal use only) SYNOPSIS
use Pod::WSDL::Writer; my $wr = new Pod::WSDL::Writer(pretty => 1, withDocumentation => 1); DESCRIPTION
This module is used internally by Pod::WSDL. By using AUTOLOADing it delegates all unknown methods to XML::Writer. It is unlikely that you have to interact directly with it. If that is the case, take a look at the code, it is rather simple. METHODS
new Instantiates a new Pod::WSDL::Writer. The method can take two parameters "pretty" with a true value triggers pretty printing of the WSDL output. "withDocumentation" with a true value produces a WSDL docuemnt containing documentation for types and methods. wrNewLine Has XML::Writer write a newline wrElem Has XML::Writer write an Element. The first argument is one of (empty|start|end), to write an empty element, a start or an end tag. The second argument signifies the name of the tag. All further arguments are attributes of the tag (does not work, when first argument is 'end') wrDoc Writes the string passed to the method as a <wsdl:documentation> Element registerWrittenFaultMessage There needs to be only one fault message per fault type. Here the client class can register fault types already written. The fault name is passed as the single argument to this method. faultMessageWritten Counterpart to registerWrittenFaultMessage. The client can ask if a fault message has already written. The fault name is passed as the single argument to this method. output Returns XML output. EXTERNAL DEPENDENCIES
