Sounds useful. FWIW, there is a little script in LibreOffice as bin/lint-ui.py which checks for various things. It doesn't do the above, but it does at least demo some simple .ui parsing. > One of the remaining questions we have (it's not blocking for our > immediate development, though) is whether this tool should be > integrated within libreoffice, or within glade.

But if ends up as a relatively simple standalone script perhaps it just needs its own gitlab/github toplevel project and LibreOffice can pull it down from there if it wants to integrate it into our build _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
