-Introduction
-------------
-
-This is the former location of the file: hid.lst
-It is intended, that after a fresh checkout from svn you will not find it here anymore.
-There will be no hid.lst anymore in source code repository for testautomation.
-
-But the file hid.lst is essential for running automated tests with VCL
-TestTool: Your OOo installation may already contain it at:
-<OOo installation directory>/basis-link/program/hid.lst
-(Depending on your installation you need to install the 'testtool' package)
-
-As a fallback you will find the file hid.lst online at:
-http://quaste.services.openoffice.org/index.php?option=com_quaste&task=tests_overview&workspace=DEV300&milestone=m51&download=2
-(Please substitute DEV300 and m51 with the respective version numbers from your used OOo installation)
-See announcement on QUASTe: http://quaste.services.openoffice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=14&Itemid=1
-
-As another fallback, the testautomation archives from Maho Nakata will already contain the hid.lst from QUASTe:
-http://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/qa/testautomation/
-Announcement is here: http://qa.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=dev&msgNo=12515
-
-Action needed for tests with VCL TestTool? It depends;
-
-Ideal processing
-----------------
-
-When checking out the VCL TestTool environment from svn;
-OOo is already installed and the installation path is set
-in the VCL TestTool seetings;
-> http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/VCLTesttool
-
-The first test run will recognize the absence of hid.lst in the directory
-testautomation/global/hid, but finds hid.lst file in OOo
-installation directory;
-Then VCL TestTool will copy it from OOo installation to testautomation
-directory - the test can start;
-
-When using the testautomation archives from Nakata Maho,
-> http://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/qa/testautomation/
-there will still be already a hid.lst file in the testautomation
-directory.
-
---------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Longer description to this change
----------------------------------
-
-The change was necessarry since there were always several conflicts on
-integration of several CWS's modifying the hid.lst file into one master.
-The hid.lst is refused to checked in by Release Engineering after
-building OOo, since they claim it is too late then and all files are
-tagged then already in svn.
-The file changes when new UI is put into, or removed from OOo;
-It matches the number of an UI element known by OOo to a speaking name,
-used in VCL TestTool test scripts.
-There were always two hid.lst files in OOo:
-- The first one, that is also the source for the second one, is
-generated during building OOo;
-- The second one, the one found in 'testautomation' was run through
-several scripts to make it useable for testautomation and always
-verified manually for errors;
-
-With some fixes in DEV300m42/m45 and issue i101284 the generation of
-hid.lst was changed during building of OOo, to use the resulting hid.lst
-at the end also for testautomation;
-This makes the second hid.lst now superfluous, since the hid.lst is also
-delivered with every OOo installation;
-
-The locations of the hid.lst:
-- After an OOo build it is found at: solver/300/unxmacxp.pro/bin/hid.lst
-  (due to a bug in deliver this one might be the wrong one, then you find
-   it in: instsetoo_native/unxmacxi.pro/bin/hid.lst)
-  To get the hid.lst build, you need to use 'configure' with the switch: --enable-hids
-- In an installed OOo:
-  Win32:  Program Files\Sun\StarOffice 9\Basis\program\hid.lst
-  Mac OS: StarOffice.app/Contents/basis-link/program/hid.lst
-  Linux: /opt/openoffice.org/basis3.2/program/hid.lst
-- Online at http://quaste.services.openoffice.org/index.php?option=com_quaste&task=tests_overview&workspace=DEV300&milestone=m51&download=2
-  With the respected values for the version replaced.
-
-The file is finaly needed at: testautomation/global/hid/hid.lst
-
-When using testautomation packages from:
-> http://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/qa/testautomation/
-No additional action should be required, since a hid.lst will be at the
-needed location.
-
-When checking out testautomation from svn, hid.lst is tried to find and 
-copied by VCL TestTool on first test run.
-
-When manual action is required
-------------------------------
-
-In case the target directory for hid.lst is not writeable by the user
-who is running the test, manual action is required:
-Open your VCL TestTool settings and change the hid directory path
-to the basis program directory of your OOo installation; E.g.:
-openoffice.org3/basis-link/program
-> http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/VCLTesttool
-
-There is also some output in the resultfile of the test, that should
-give some hint, about the hid.lst; Either it was already there, got
-copied from OOo or simply just not found.
-
-If no hid.lst file is found, or could not be copied a messagebox comes up,
-telling the reason and testing is aborted. Then please read the 
-additional messages in the resultfile.
-
-There might also be the case where the version of the hid.lst does not match the
-version of the used OOo. Then there is an informal message shown.
-The version should not differ, please check and correct the location of
-the hid.lst file. Some reasons might be:
-- the build was not done with configure switch  --enable-hids;
-  then the hid.lst comes from helpcontent2/helpers/hid.lst, which
-  is a constant one, which is far too old.
-As for the VCL TestTool environment, the hid.lst file is also version dependant to OOo.
-
-Current warnings in results
----------------------------
-
-There are currenty about 99 warnings in the beginning, which are already 
-fixed in CWS dba32e: i103219, butis not yet integrated into the master.
