In case you are interested in grammar checking please let me point you
to the [email protected] mailing list where the creation
and implementation of an API for this is discussed. Currently we don't
have an API for grammar checking but we hope we will have one soon. It
would be nice to have somebody on the list who has some ideas about or
experience with grammar checking in a language that might be completely
different than the ones we are discussing currently.

Well, you could take the Calculator example in the java examples of the
SDK. It's a start and uses the basic mechnisms to integrate Java code
into OOo. Together with a debugger and the documentation in the DevGuide
you can try to understand what is going on in the code.

If you have questions concerning Add-On development please use the
[email protected] mailing list. In case you do this please consider
to subscribe to this list because in most cases replies to your mails go
to the list only and so you might miss them.

Best regards,
