Got it.
For the record or any other person looking this up, here's a small (Scala)
snippet to read all variables and their default values.
Please note that trying to do TextDocument.getVariableFieldByName always
returns an empty field value…
val container = template.getVariableContainerElement()
val children = container.getElementsByTagName("text:user-field-decl")
var length = children.getLength()-1
for (i <- 0 to length) {
children.item(i) match {
case child: TextUserFieldDeclElement =>
println("Child Name : "+child.getTextNameAttribute())
println("Child Value: "+child.getOfficeStringValueAttribute())
case _ =>
}
}
Thanks,
Torsten.
