Hi Terrence,
when you check out the sources and build the project, you're at your own
risk - this is work in progress and you cannot be sure that you get a
version that works at all. To be on the safe side, look for the tagged
version 1.1.3.
But you do not have to build it yourself at all, version 1.1.3 is in the
NetBeans beta update center: open Tools -> Plugins and change to
"Available Plugins", then install the plug-in. You have to remove the
version you already installed to see the plug-in as available, though.
Your error regarding the SDK lets me think that your SDK indeed is not
valid, because the algorithm to check it is not really sophisticated.
Can you use the SDK standalone, e.g. build and execute an example?
Lastly, which platform are you on?
Regarding the wiki-page: you are right, the behaviour of the plug-in has
changed in that regard. I will update the page.
Regards, Steffen

Hi,
I see "OpenOffice.org API plugin for Netbeans 1.1.3 available"
<http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS/entry/openoffice_org_api_plugin_for>, but
<ftp://openoffice.mirrors.tds.net/pub/openoffice/extended/developer/OOO300_m2/OOo-Dev_OOO300_m2_src_sdk.tar.bz2>
at least (I loooked at other some other mirrors back on the 6th) is a mere 42 bytes. Wow,
that is right good compression technology <grin />.
I presume this is just a packaging issue. Is there a better place for
me to raise it?
OOo-Dev_OOO300_m2_src_sdk.tar.bz2 is the source code for compiling the
SDK (for this you need the whole OOo build environment). And the NB
plug-in isn't anyway included.
You can use the NetBeans IDE to checkout the plug-in sources and compile
them yourself.
Open the wizard from the menu Versioning - CVS - Chechout...
* In CVS Root type:
:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401/cvs
* in Pasword type
anoncvs
* press "Next"
* in Module type
api/oonetbeansintegration
* in Local folder select a dir. where to download
So far so good.
* when finished the IDE will ask you to create a project, accept

Warnings about deprecated classes and proprietary APIs. I'm not gonna
let little things like that stop me.
and create the NMB
the NBM, I guess. Anyway, that's what I created.
* install it
That seemed to work. Tools > Plugins > Installed shows version 1.1.3
now.
Contrary to
<http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OpenOffice_NetBeans_Integration#Configuration>,
it did not prompt during installation for Office installation and sdk installation
directories. Going in to enter them now ...
Whoops. I cannot get past message "The selected OpenOffice.org SDK
installation directory is not valid!". This happens for my directories
DEV300_m19/sdk_oo
DEV300_m19_localbuild/sdk_oo
DEV300_m19_localbuild/opt/sdk_oo
DEV300_m19_localbuild/opt/openoffice.org3/sdk_oo
where DEV300_m19/ is where I build OOo and DEV300_m19_localbuild/ is
where I installed it. (Yes, I am reduced to trying things at random.)
Do I need a more recent OOo or sdk? Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Terry.
That's all.
Regards
Ariel.
