Hi Carsten,
thank you for the information.
Just thought that the 'package registry' is somehow merged into the
'office registry' and so extensions could profit of the same
updates/refreshing as the 'office'.
Although I'm not sure, if the 'office' has such a update/refresh for its
own menus?
Hi Christoph,
You're right that the configuration data of a package is merged into the
Office configuration. The user interface configuration data is processed
by a different implementation and is not coupled with the Office
configuration. Add-ons use an Office configuration file (Addons.xcu) to
supported merging and installation/deinstallation. The Addons.xcu data
is read by the user interface configuration implementation and merged
into the OOo user interface. If a document window has read the
Addons.xcu, it won't detect any changes as it doesn't listen to changes.
If you use the user interface configuration API you get automatic
update/refresh (just use the Tools-Customize dialog and change the menu
or a toolbar).
Regards,
Carsten
