Did you notice that they're code is "stuck" while LibreOffice is in its native event queue? Their code is literally loading the LibreOffice code and running in their application's main thread. So, LibreOffice starts the native event loop. The event loop runs until LibreOffice terminates. I get it that there is interest that you can run a complex GUI application as a command line tool. And you can on Windows and Linux and iOS since they have a separate "headless mode" vcl code that never creates any native windows so there is no need to start a native event loop. It's pretty basic here: TDF and partners funded headless mode for Windows and Linux and iOS. No one funded a macOS headless mode. I don't have the time, funds, or even interest to fund this on macOS. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
