Changes that Impact Backwards Compatibility

Module binfilter removed

We no longer read or write the legacy StarOffice file formats (files with extensions .sdw, .sdc, .sdd, etc.).  Removal of this code makes the OpenOffice codebase easier to maintain.  The legacy formats have never been the default format in any version of OpenOffice.  Users with legacy StarOffice documents are advised to re-save them into ODF format (不再支持 StarOffice 遗留文件格式(扩展名为 .sdw、.sdc、.sdd 等的文件)。移除这一代码更易于 OpenOffice 代码库的维护。这些遗留格式从未是 OpenOffice 任一版本的默认格式。建议有 StarOffice 遗留文件的用户*在升级*至 Apache OpenOffice 4.0 之前,将文件重新保存为 ODF 格式(.odt, *.ods, *.odp 等)。该操作可在 OpenOffice 3.x 上通过“文件”(File) - “向导”(Wizards) - “文件转换器”(Document Converter) 实现,仍支持 OpenOffice 3.x 的文件 (, etc.) *before upgrading to Apache OpenOffice 4.0. This can be done using File - Wizards - Document Converter in OpenOffice 3.x  OpenOffice 1.x files (*.sxw, *.sxc, *.sxi) are still supported.

Python support updated

PyUNO is now compatible with the latest C-Python 3.x but in order to reduce the impact for existing applications, support for C-Python 2.x has been preserved and remains the default. The internal Python, used by default in the Windows and MacOS-X ports, has now been upgraded with version 2.7.5 which fixes hundreds of bugs and has important performance improvements but is still compatible with previous versions. Existing scripts may require minor adjustments but will normally just continue working as before.

  • Apache OpenOffice 4.0.0. has got a new color palette. If you have migrated your "personal data" from a previous version, the old color palette is migrated too: you won't see the new palette and (if you are using a non-English version) some of the color names will appear in English only. To get the new palette close Apache OpenOffice and its quickstarter, search for the file “standard.soc” in your Apache OpenOffice user folder and rename the file, to “standard_AOO341.soc” for example. With the next start of Apache OpenOffice the new color palette is transferred to your user folder and is available.
  • Some Extensions need to be updated to work with Apache OpenOffice 4.0 due to API changes and simplifications introduced with the new release. In most cases, the extensions can be easily adapted to work with OpenOffice 4.0 by their developers. Users and developers can find more information in this dedicated wiki page.

Upgrading/Installation

When installing Apache OpenOffice 4.0.0 on a machine that already has OpenOffice 3.4.1 or 3.4.0 installed on it, the user will be prompted on whether they would like "personal data" from the previous version migrated over to the new version.  This includes information like custom spell checking words, dictionaries, extensions, etc. By default this migration is enabled, but the user can disable it via the checkbox.
