OpenOffice API experts,
I've inherited code for an OpenOffice extension in C++ that
purportedly ran with a previous version of OpenOffice who knows how
long ago. The code is throwing an exception. It is presently being
built with Visual C++ 2008 and running under Windows 7, although I
doubt that either of those is the problem. By the time the exception
is caught, it is of type com::sun::star::uno::Exception & with the
message "[context="user"] caught unexpected exception!". However,
previous to that the debugger sees a
com::sun::star::ucb::InteractiveAugmentedIOException, an 'anonymous
namespace'::NoDescriptionException, a few
com::sun::star::ucb::InteractiveAugmentedIOException's, and a
com::sun::star::lang::WrappedTargetRuntimeException.
The code is below. I believe that it is preparing to load a graphic
from the extension's installation directory. Perhaps there is an
alternate way to do that now. Any and all help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
OUString getPathToExtensionRoot(const char* name) {
OUString ouName = OUString::createFromAscii(name);
// localContext seems to be good. It can be used for other things.
Reference<XComponentContext> localContext =
defaultBootstrap_InitialComponentContext();
Reference<XPackageInformationProvider> xPackageInformationProvider =
PackageInformationProvider::get(localContext);
// The following line crashes as does any other call using ->
// xPackageInfoProvider.is() reports 1
try {
OUString path = xPackageInformationProvider->getPackageLocation(ouName);
return path;
}
catch (Exception &ex) {
}
return ouName; // just to return something
}
