| SFX is the "old" framework, used for historical reasons. |
| |
| An attempt of documentation of this module is located in [git:sfx2/doc]. |
| |
| It contains base classes for document model, view and controller, used |
| by "old" applications like sw, sc, sd (while "new" applications |
| are based on the "new" UNO based framework in "framework"). |
| |
| The SFX framework is based on dispatching slots identified by integers |
| (SlotIDs) to SfxShells, and there is a dedicated IDL compiler (svidl) |
| involved that generates C++ slot headers from SDI files in modules' sdi/ |
| subdirectory. |

| |
| Document load/save code is maintained in [git:sfx2/source/doc/docfile.cxx] |
| SfxMedium class, which handles all the twisty load and save corner cases. |
| |
| [git:sfx2/source/appl/sfxhelp.cxx] Start procedure for the online |
| help viewer top level window; handling of help URL creation and |
| dispatch. |
| |
| There are also some UNO services here that could really be implemented |
| anywhere, e.g. the DocumentProperties or DocumentMetadataAccess. |
