This library has taken insight from
OLE:
- libole : Michael Meeks, Arturo Tena, and Frank Chiulli
- which was based on
Laola : by Martin Schwartz
WINE : Marcus Meissner, Francis Beaudet, Sylvain St-Germain and
Thuy Nguyen
Caolan McNamara's work
- POIFS : Marc Johnson
VBA:
- libole : Michael Meeks and Frank Chiulli figuring out quite a bit about
how a vba stream is stored.
- OpenOffice : For confirming many of Michael's hypothesis' and supplying
insight into the project file structure.
- Costin Raiu, Kaspersky Labs <craiu@pcnet.ro>
: For commenting that the dir stream had offsets too. That way we can
avoid OpenOffice's trouble parsing pcode.
gzip:
- zlib : for doing all the heavy lifting, and suppling gzio.c as an
example.
