Hi Stephan,
service DocumentInfo: XDocumentInformation

This syntax would mean that language mappings do no offer default
constructors for that service. Is that intended, or is it a typo
(dropping the "{}" would enable the default constructors)?
Uh - I wasn't aware of this. I doubt any developer coming from the C++
side would expect such a subtle difference. Wouldn't it make sense to
always generate default constructors?
Too subtle, admitted. The idea behind it was that there are special
cases of services that are normally not instantiated explicitly (for an
example of this, see the UNOIDL documentation of
com.sun.star.uri.UriReferenceFactory) for which the ability to suppress
constructors would be handy. While an unfortunate gotcha, I hope it is
not a too problematic one (apart from frustrating authors of new UNOIDL
every now and then), as it should always lead to very visible errors,
not subtle ones.
