Yes, it is more of a cosmetic cleanup - the classes are already in practice namespaced by the O prefix and so not explicitly adding the rtl:: prefix is avoiding the nuisance of the extra writing and also, since these are very commonly uses classes, makes the code more readable. -- Lubos Lunak [email protected] _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
