I've tried building 3.6.6.2 and 4.0.3.3. Both versions are configured with the
attached autogen.lastrun on an OpenSUSE system with installed mingw32 packages
from OpenSUSE build service. Within the 4.0.3.3 version I have fixed already
some errors (e. g. lcms.h). The 3.6.6.2 are in original state. The errors I
have currently are listed in the attached log files.

Ok, thanks for your hints. Since I'm developing with Qt, an python extension
of the Qt-c++ application seems to be also a good option for me than. This
should be platform independent also.

You are right, the term connect is not really clear here. My goal is to read
and write office files from my application. Therefore I designed an interface.
Than I can implement the interface within plugins, which utilize different
tools to read and write the files. For example one plugin handles CSV files,
another uses MS Office per OLE and another should use LibreOffice. So connect
is
meant as any possible interaction between libreoffice and my plugin to read and
write office files (precisly spreadsheets).
Kind regards,
Joachim Langenbach
