Hack-(rest-of-the)-week at Collabora

Given that a Writer shape with a TextBox is internally two shapes, this needed explicit support. After my TextBox bugfix it’s possible to have two such shapes in a document, and once you select one of them, tab properly jumps between the two shapes; previously nothing happened.

What did happen is we tried to activate the TextBox of the selected shape, which selected the shape itself, so at the end nothing happened.

For some time it was already possible to import and export custom string document properties from/to RTF, but just in case the value type of the property was string. Now I extended support for these custom properties, so also the remaining types are handled: numbers, bools, doubles and dates.

Last, I’ve started working on upstreaming external/libxmlsec/xmlsec1-noverify.patch.1. xmlsec has no ability to disable the verification of certificates (think of curl -k or wget -k), so in LibreOffice currently we just patch out that code as we don’t need it. So I wanted to add a new verification flag to avoid patching, but it turns out that in the NSS case xmlsec didn’t do the verification, so as a first step I fixed that instead in this xmlsec GitHub pull request. Now that it’s merged, the next step will be to add such a flag, and then LibreOffice can get rid of the patch after the next xmlsec release.
