Hi Michael, I appreciate the response. I am fairly new to LO and so far working off a rpm installation (in process of building the source). Extensions sound like something for masters - I'll try to avoid that for a few weeks. However, your 2nd option looks like something I can build using examples (c++ service and BASIC macros). Let me give it a shot.

C++ UNO components that are instantiated in-process currently do not go through a bridge when interacting with the LO API (although there have been varying opinions about changing that, since it makes maintaining backward compatibility more difficult): for such components, calling a LO API method (or being called from LO itself) is just a C++ virtual function call. the best documented way to get this performance benefit is to implement your client code as an extension. http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/Extensions/Extensions there may also be a way to get there with less efforts, there are some variables to add additional service rdbs to the soffice process (URE_MORE_SERVICES/URE_MORE_TYPES) but i don't have any experience with them; probably there is some way to implement what you want to do as a service and then start it from inside soffice, if all else fails via a trivial BASIC macro :) _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
