Re: [EXTENSIONS] how is the extension constructor called
Just wondering what would be considered the fix for this, someone mentioned implementing more logic in the Netbeans plugin. Would a plausible solution be to have Netbeans generate each add-in as a singleton? Or is there maybe a better fix from the open office end in the way it implements the java plugins? I have a hunch this could be the case, because I don't see why the add-in class should be invoked / instantiated as many times as there are menu items and toolbar items. Seems like there should be a better integration scheme... 2014-10-02 15:22 GMT+02:00 John D'Orazio john.dora...@cappellaniauniroma3.org: Does this mean it's a bug in the way open office is implementing the java add-ins generated by the NetBeans plugin?
