Loading documents by URL can be done by using the desktop service:
(1)
dim arg(2) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
args(0).Name = "UpdateDocMode"
args(0).Value = com.sun.star.document.UpdateDocMode.ACCORDING_TO_CONFIG
args(1).Name = "MacroExecutionMode"
args(1).Value = com.sun.star.document.MacroExecMode.USE_CONFIG
args(2).Name = "InteractionHandler"
args(2).Value = CreateUnoService("com.sun.star.task.InteractionHandler")
StarDesktop.loadComponentFromURL( sURL, "_default", 0, args() )
or by using the Dispatch Framework:
(2)
frame = ThisComponent.CurrentController.Frame
dispatcher = createUnoService("com.sun.star.frame.DispatchHelper")
dim args(0) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
args(0).Name = "URL"
args(0).Value = "sURL"
dispatcher.executeDispatch(frame, ".uno:Open", "_default", 0, args())
The arguments in the first case are necessary because without them you
don't get any necessary updates or update queries when you open the
document (styles,links etc.) and your program will break in case of an
error (e.g. file corruption) and also macros in the document will be
disabled completely.
In the second case they will be automatically added by the code that
executes the dispatch and you will also stay "compatible" to the
behaviour of the OOo file dialog even if we will add more parameters of
this kind in future versions.
