Hi Jürgen,
[BTW, please note that there seems to be an error in this area, as from
outside of Basic one must denote "application" rather than the correct
"user" as the location.]
mmh, i am not sure. Well i have never used this but maybe
"application" provides a view from outside of basic on both "user"
and "share" and you don't have to differentiate. But of course using
"user" directly should work probably also.
Shall I file an issue for this?
i don't know how it should be, maybe wait until somebody with deeper
knowledge of this area has answered.
I think an issue would get a very low prio because it's not often used ...
Compiling and running the Java program above will cause a message box to
popup (needs to be closed by the user, or just comment the
MsgBox-instruction), and at the end of the run will display the result's
value (the result of the Basic function):
-------------- cut here --------------
F:\test\ooo\studenten\diplarbeit\scholz\20090108>java TestBasic
Connected to a running office ...
Returned from executing dispatch, Result=[(some Basic datatypes:
0=Empty, 2=Integer, 8=String, 9=Object, 11=Boolean)
isMissing(arg1)=False, value=someObject, datatype=9
isMissing(arg2)=False, value=True, datatype=11
isMissing(arg3)=True], State=[1]
Successful run.

As you can see, the Basic function gets TWO arguments, instead of only
one. The last argument is of type Boolean and has a value of "True".
Any comments/hints/explanations now that only "genuine" OOo
functionality is used? Does this qualify as a bug?
sorry no hints without further investigation ...
O.K., I'll wait before submitting an issue for this then (as it could be
very well intentional and just the documentation for it is missing,
although the "surprise" factor would be there fore the application
programmers, potentially leading to wrong expectations and therefore to
mix-ups at runtime as a system added argument may change the logic of
the receiving function/subroutine).
well i would never do it this way but anyway. It's definitely seldom
used. You should try to use the scripting framework directly to invoke
scripts. But don't ask me how it has to be used. I simply forget it. I
played with it some time in the past but that's it.
Juergen
Thanks anyway!
