30 <p>LibreOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE% software is a complete, feature-rich
31 office productivity suite that provides, in combination with this
32 SDK, all the essential tools for building and deploying custom
33 solutions that build on, or integrate with, the LibreOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE% suite
34 of products.</p>
35 <p>The SDK is a development kit for LibreOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE%, which
36 eases the development of office components. It provides a set of
37 libraries, binaries, header, and IDL files which have final API's
38 and can only be extended with new functionality. This set of libraries
39 and binaries is the minimum set of functions needed to use system
40 abstraction for base functionality and for using UNO (Universal
41 Network Objects) component technology. The UNO component model is the
42 base of the whole Office API. The SDK provides everything necessary
43 to use the Office API from external programs (e.g. Java, C++) or to
44 extend the Office functionality with new components (e.g. new filter
45 components, CalcAddin functions). It is compatible over several
46 versions because the API remains unaffected and will only be extended
47 with new functions.</p>
48 <p>The SDK provides the basic building blocks for external developers
49 to develop components in any language for which a binding exists.
50 Currently, there are language bindings for LibreOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE% Basic, Java,
51 and different C++ compilers on different platforms, for LibreOffice %PRODUCT_RELEASE%,
52 thus covering the two most commonly used programming languages. There
53 will be no limit for office automation in heterogeneous environments.
54 Currently supported platforms of the SDK are Linux, Solaris (sparc,
55 x86), and Windows.</p>
56 <p>The SDK also contains <a href="docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/module-ix.html" title="link to the IDL reference documentation"> reference</a> documentation
57 for the API and a complete <a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/OpenOffice.org_Developers_Guide" title="link to the Developer's Guide in the Wiki">Developer's Guide</a> is available online in the OpenOffice.org Wiki, with
58 lots of examples, which introduce the API, explain the concepts behind
59 it, and make it possible for all users to quickly get started with
60 the Office API.</p>
