long txt file to show the sorting bug in writer (dictionary lines, zipped)
The text has more than 65536 lines. You should sort it in parts. Confirmed: after some (about 10 pages) the sort restarts to "a" My "nose" tells me that Regina is somehow right (the file is too big for the function) but I could not find an exact correlation between the word/line/character count and the sort restart. I tested this also in OOO320m2 and the effect is worst than in 3.1.1. @MBA: please take over. @hardy314: for what I could see, yes, we have a bug and we should fix it! <support> Now just to help you reaching your goals and apart from "we have a bug": manipulating a HUGE amount of *pure* text doesn't sound to me as a task for word processor... You could get better (and faster?) results on this using dedicated tools like those in a Unix shell (if you work on Unix) or using "Cygwin" (please google for it! ;) ) on Windows. The answer to your needs would be: sort -d Babel-Franz-Deutsch_2.txt > Babel-Franz-Deutsch_3.txt If you'd ask for coffee, I'd advice you a coffee machine. Not OOo! ;) </support> @es: Thank you for the <support> part. I will try your suggested alternatives. You are totally right with your coffee machine comparison, I was just giving OO a quick try :) since I am using it a lot otherwise. Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org". |
