Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] Indexing for Search not working?
As far as Base is concerned, I have not been having any problems with 3.4.6, 3.5.6, nor
3.6.2. (I just installed 3.6.3.2 which is a release candidate. For my personal databases I use the
most, I use MySQL as the backend with any of these LO Base versions as the front end. I work with
Base 3.6.3.2 for my writing. This database is embedded and contains only sample data (no important
data contained in it). As far as JRE, I use 1.6.0_24 (openjdk). LO seems to prefer this.
I also use AOO 3.4.1 at times. It seems to prefer the Openjdk 1.7.0_07.
The main problem with Base is the potential for data loss when the program is not shutdown
properly. This can be avoided by extracting the data from the database file and then use Base to
connect to the data. (The data files are extracted to a separate folder.) Unfortunately, it does
not improve the speed of Base.

Tom,
That info of yours is not only interesting but very important for me as an user - and most
certainly for others too.
Unfortunately you add that "it is how you imagine it works"!
Would it be possible that you check that with the board or the devs themselves and then confirm
it to us?
If I were you I definitely would like to be sure about the proceedings - (a) if such really has
been settled or (b) if not settled?
Some posts ago I asked what version is for the time being considered the most reliable,
especially regarding Base?
-- and what version of JRE is in that version needed for Base (if anymore needed)?
I have read the release notes and got an picture but what is your opinion?
My version now is LibO3.4.6 on Win7Pro/32 and Win7/64.

Hi :)
The upgrade from 3.5.x to 3.5.7 is extremely unlikely to cause problems. That 3rd digit is
roughly like a "Service Pack" number, but divide it by 2 because MS only does 3 SPs whereas LO
does 6 or 7.
The 3.x.7 aims at avoiding introducing new features! New features are mostly in the 3.6.x or
being lined-up for the 3.7.0. The 3.5.7 is likely to just have fixes for any lingering
problems in the 3.5.6. Most of those fixes will be being merging into the 3.6.3 and .4. At
least that's how i imagine it works. Certainly once that 3rd digit reaches .4 the branch seems
a lot more stable.
Regards from
Tom :)

BRAVO Anne-Ology!!
Exactly that message - only in other words -- I have repeatedly tried to
tell to the LibO-experts (devs) since January:
they must take a brake in developing and take a certain version (e.g.
3.4.xx) and make every module of the suite - Base included - absolutely
free of bugs and inconsistencies both in programming and the instructions
and especially the LibO-Help.
Every feature shall have a clear explanation and a detailed guiding
how-to in the LibO-Help -- easily understood by any average non-expert
user.
I cannot agree more.
I started with 3.5.4 a few month ago and saw some problems disappearing in
3.5.5 and 3.5.6. Currently I am hesitating to upgrade to 3.5.7.
I hope the dev-team listens to Pertti's words.
