I only need a simple c++ sample, that in its main, includes code to: ( I'm not sure if what follows below is old or new libreoffice architecture terms?) + get a remote office component context + get the remote office service manager + get an instance of the remote office desktop UNO service + query the XComponentLoader interface + Open a spreadsheet document, with a handle to doc

I'm working up an independent c++ app (win32 console application) that talks to Libreoffice, "preferably via pipes"... and will open, close and manage a Calc spreadsheet. This is a proof of concept..to see if LibreOffice can add value. Can anyone send me a sample. sample can be for a linux or windows platform. An independent C++ application (console application) can talk to libreoffice via tcp.ip, pipes or ole. ( could be others?) The problem is that LibreOffice samples that work with a calc doc, that I have found googling, cover two different LibreOffice architectures. Todate, I have only found one c++ sample that works with a calc doc, that uses Windows DCOM, that built and worked without any error codes. All samples that I have found, googling, use a deprecated libreoffice architecture. ( except for one ole dcom sample) Deprecated architecture: Samples work with LibreOffices by using file <comphelper/processfactory.hxx>, Last seen in version 4.0.0.3 ( about) Plus there are architecture differences in working with rdb files, etc... And then functions,in a current version of LibreOffice, that are deprecated due to architecture changes, return abort(). This increases difficulty in debugging. Because this allows a build, but then if that function is called, it makes an app crash. It's hard to fanthom why this approach was used. A good example cppuhelper/source/compat.hxx line 56. Reference<XSimpleRegistry>createSimpleRegistry(OUString const&) returns std::abort. There is a comment "//avoid "must return a value warning" _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
