           Summary: 64bit LO for Mac requires restart to activate
                    extension
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.3.0.4 release
         Component: Extensions
           Product: LibreOffice

Using a 32bit LibreOffice on MacOSX, newly installed extensions are activated
immediately. As far as I can tell, this has always been the case.

But the 64 bit versions for Mac (4.2 and 4.3) behave differently. After
installing an extension, one needs to quit LO and start again before the
extension is activated and made available for use. This is a regression.

I have tested this with both C++-based extensions (e.g. the LO-voikko 4.0
extensions available on http://divvun.no/libreofficeoxt.html) and with the toy
Hunspell extensions in bug https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83376.
I also built the example code complextoolbarcontrols on
http://api.libreoffice.org/examples/examples.html#Cpp_examples, and it behaved
the same.

To repeat:

1) download or build any of the mentioned oxt's above
2) install in 64-bit LO for Mac (4.2 or 4.3)
3) observe that the oxt is useless
4) restart LO and observe that the oxt can now be used
5) Redo 1) and 2) with a 32-bit LO (e.g. 32-bit versions of 4.2 or 4.3, or
using older, 32-bit only LO versions)
6) observe that the oxt is immediately available for use - no restart of LO
required
