Hello,
I am new to openoffice development and am trying to write my own calc addin.
I have followed the guidlines on the wiki (both the simple and complete
versions). I have managed to build an addin and a oxt extension. I can load
the extension and run the function using the basic macro:
Sub Main
mgr = getProcessServiceManager()
o = mgr.createInstance("Xenon.Xenon")
MsgBox o.expo(10)
End Sub
So far so good :-)
However I can not see my functions in the function list. My idl file looks
like this:
module Xenon {
interface XXenon : com::sun::star::uno::XInterface
{
double expo( [in] double m );
};
service Xenon {
interface XXenon;
interface com::sun::star::lang::XInitialization;
interface com::sun::star::lang::XServiceName;
interface com::sun::star::sheet::XAddIn;
};
};
and the XAddin part of my cxx file like this:
#define _serviceName_ "Xenon.Xenon"
static const sal_Char *_serviceName = _serviceName_;
static const sal_Char *_functionDisplayName = "EXPO";
static const sal_Char *_functionName = "expo";
static const sal_Char *_functionDescription = "Returns a random #
from an Exponential(m) distribution";
//XAddIn
OUString XenonAddin::getProgrammaticFuntionName( const OUString&
aDisplayName ) throw (RuntimeException)
{
if(aDisplayName.equalsAscii(_functionDisplayName))
{
OString
os(_functionName);
return OStringToOUString(os,
RTL_TEXTENCODING_ASCII_US);
}
return
OUString(RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM(""));
}
OUString XenonAddin::getDisplayFunctionName( const OUString&
aProgrammaticName ) throw (RuntimeException)
{
if(aProgrammaticName.equalsAscii(_functionName))
{
OString
os(_functionDisplayName);
return OStringToOUString(os,
RTL_TEXTENCODING_ASCII_US);
}
return
OUString(RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM(""));
}
OUString XenonAddin::getFunctionDescription( const OUString&
aProgrammaticName ) throw (RuntimeException)
{
if(aProgrammaticName.equalsAscii(_functionName))
{
OString
os(_functionDescription);
return OStringToOUString(os,
RTL_TEXTENCODING_ASCII_US);
}
return
OUString(RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM(""));
}
OUString XenonAddin::getDisplayArgumentName( const OUString&
aProgrammaticName, ::sal_Int32 nArgument ) throw (RuntimeException)
{
if(aProgrammaticName.equalsAscii(_functionName) &&
nArgument==0) return OUString(RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM("m"));
return
OUString(RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM(""));
}
OUString XenonAddin::getArgumentDescription( const OUString&
aProgrammaticName, ::sal_Int32 nArgument ) throw (RuntimeException)
{
if(aProgrammaticName.equalsAscii(_functionName) &&
nArgument==0) return OUString(RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM("mean"));
return
OUString(RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM(""));
}
OUString XenonAddin::getProgrammaticCategoryName( const OUString&
aProgrammaticName ) throw (RuntimeException)
{
return
OUString(RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM("Xenon"));
}
OUString XenonAddin::getDisplayCategoryName( const OUString&
aProgrammaticName ) throw (RuntimeException)
{
return
OUString(RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM("Xenon"));
}
I understand their are some limitations as to the categroy names so I tried
adding them to the existing "Financial" category instead but still no luck.
Any help on this would be much appreciated.
I am developing on Gentoo Linux with OOo 3 using the binary openoffice
package. My gcc is v4.3.2 and compile using the simple build script provided
in the simple add in (slightly modified for my environment).
