Re: [api-dev] bug in windows OOo 1.1.4 bootstrap - InvocationTargetException

Hi Mike, We decided to go for a) and I don't really see any problems with it. You mentioned the problem with OOo 1.1.x which always writes to HKEY_CURRENT_USER. This is a bug and very unfortunate. I think this bug cannot be fixed in OOo 1.1.x but probably I'm wrong. Therefore I only see two

Thomas, That's for the workaround, but I've been having these discussions because I'm developing some client apps and am forseeing the problems people are going to have as well as trying to prompt discussion to enable a better OOo design for the future. mike --- Thomas Benisch [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thomas, For option (b), I wasn't proposing an automatic selection, unless, of course, the Bootstrap was extended to be able to tell you what services are available with each installation, or to be able to find an installation which provides a certain service. This, in my opinon, would be the best

Thomas, I'm not sure what you mean by the user or administrator defining the default installation. This would be possible in linux/unix, but, from what I've gathered, there's no way to do this in Windows. OOo 1.1.x will always trump all other installations (unless there's something I don't know).

The SDK 1.9m77 is not intended to be used for OO 1.1.4. That said I don't know if it is incompatible to OO 1.1.x, but since bootstrapping has changed a lot over the last months it is not surprising to me that problems occur in your case. On Apr 7, 2005 4:27 PM, Mike Traum [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

I'm using the 1.9.m77 sdk to write a java client. I've been having other problems, but along the way, I was told that OOo 1.1.4 supports the Bootstrap, but there is currently a bug when having a space in the path name of the installation. So, I removed the installation, installed without the
