Re: [api-dev] XField vs XField2: a question ?
while working a little bit with the reflection interface I have been stumbling over the following: com.sun.star.reflection.XField is deprecated in favor of com.sun.star.reflection.XField2. All signatures are the same except for set(), where the first argument changed from [in] to [inout]. XField::set() has been specified wrong: set() changes the object parameter, e.g. a STRUCT field, thus it has to be [inout]. For a long time, this bug hasn't been discovered, because when calling from pure C++, modifying the Any's internal STRUCT works, although it violates Any's const-ness (passed as Any const). But this hurts concerning bridging to different languages: [in] parameters aren't written back, so the modification gets lost. Thus use reflection.XField2 to be on the safe side, though XField still works (except for its set()). hope this clarifies, -Daniel - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [api-dev] Interface classes: assumptions correct?
Hi Rony, Rony G. Flatscher wrote: Hi there, are the following few assumptions correct? * Interface class names in UNO always start with a capital X only. yes * Interface classes must not have fields (they consist of methods only). no, the was the recommendation in the past but with the new UNO ease of use features we will make heavily use of attributes in interfaces and this attrbitues are comparable with properties of old style services. And of course multiple inheritance interfaces can be compared with old style services too. New style services have only a 1:1 relation to one interface (noramlly a multiple inheritance interface). This new style services have a generated constructor and can be create in a special context. That means in the gloabl context (global service manager) or in the context of an application (e.g. writer factory). You will see more new style services in the future.

[api-dev] Insert embedded graphic by breaking the image link
Hi all, I would like to insert embedded graphics into Writer. By using the API, I could successfully insert graphics which are linked to image files. I realize that there is a Link menu under the Edit menu which displays a dialog box and allow the removal of links. I suppose this option fits my need perfectly and I started finding ways to achieve what the Links dialog box does. I tried record my actions as macro, the following code display the Edit Links dialog box. But I do not want to have user intervention during the link removal process, so I tried finding other ways... dispatcher.executeDispatch(document, .uno:LinkDialog, , 0, Array()) Then, I found the interface XLinkageSupport, which I thought it might be helpful as it offers the breakLink() method. However, I could not figure out what objects should be used for querying the XLinkageSupport interface. I have tried querying both the text document (XTextDocument) and the graphic (XTextContent) but both return null. Is there any possibility to do what I am attempting to do? If XLinkageSupport does work for my need, could anyone please explain briefly how to use the XLinkageSupport interface? Thanks for any help in advance! Best Regards, MuiFull PS. I browsed through the forum and knew that embedded graphics could be created through the use of dispatch interface, but this is not the best solution for my case. This is because I need to have an accurate positioning for graphics, and by using dispatch, I need to obtain references of the created graphics in further, and to do the positioning through normal API. Performance issue is then a big concern... - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [api-dev] Deprecated getInterfaces() in XIdlClass ?
Hi Rony, what I did to solve a similar problem: I am using the service /singletons/com.sun.star.reflection.theTypeDescriptionManager instantiated by using interface: com.sun.star.uno.XComponentContext, method: getValueByName From that I can query the interface: XTypeDescriptionEnumerationAccess with method createTypeDescriptionEnumeration I can get a list of type descriptions (using the parameter types of that method I can limit that to interfaces) and can get all interfaces of a module using method nextTypeDescription I get an interface XTypeDescription with methods getName and getTypeClass Having the name of the interface I can use interface: com.sun.star.reflection.XInterfaceTypeDescription with method getMembers I get a sequences of XInterfaceMemberTypeDescriptions with method getMemberName i can get the name of the property/attribute or method Having the interface name and the method name I use interface: com.sun.star.reflection.XIdlReflection method: forName to get an interface XIdlClass and using getMethod I get a XIdlMethod interface for the rest (getParameters, getReturnType. etc.) Hope that helps, Arnulf Am Mittwoch, 3.

E.g. if using XIdlClass xidl=XIdlReflection.forName(com.sun.star.frame.Desktop); then the class to inspect is (should be) known? The same would be true with using an object to get at its type (class) as well: XIdlClass xidl=XIdlReflection.getType(someObject); XIdlClass.getName() would in both cases return the fully qualified class name as a string, hence XIdlClass *should* know at least the name of the reflected class and hence be able to inspect it and come up with these important infos. How dangerous would it be to still use the deprecated method getInterfaces(), really? Maybe I should ask: what would be the real difference between this deprecated XIdlClass method and using the XTypeProvider interface for an object, if looking at the resulting sequence of Interface types? --- The motivation: I would like to analyze a UNO class via Java without the mandatory need to instantiate such a class upfront. At the moment I can only come by using a lazy inspection scheme, but that has the consequence that it is not possible to present all of the methods and fields of a given class in all cases, because the methods and fields of interfaces/services cannot be figured out at runtime as long as such a class did not get instantiated.

Re: [api-dev] Ad XInterfaceMemberTypeDescription (Re: [api-dev] Deprecated getInterfaces() in XIdlClass ?
Hi Arnulf, if you use the stuff I described in my last email, having the XInterfaceTypeDescription you can directly query for the XInterfaceMemberTypeDescription. Calling method getMembers you get a sequence of objects. With these objects you can queryInterface for XInterfaceAttributeTypeDescription or XInterfaceMethodTypeDescription. If I remember correctly, you get an empty response if the object is not of the appropriate type (attribute or method), Thank you very much! This is really what I would be after, because then one can infer from the type information what fields are really there and has not to infer from set/get methods (which could mean that one guesses wrong, sometimes). Can't give you a direct example, because the work I am doing is in C++/tcluno. Just curious: are you workint on a TcL-UNO-interface, which could be exploited outside of Windows (the present support is via ActiveX, Windows-only, I understand)? To check if it is a method or an attribute you can use com.sun.star.beans.XIntrospection method inspect on the object you get back from the getMembers call and afterwards use com.sun.star.beans.XIntrospectionAccess method hasMethod on the object returned from the inspect call to check if that is a method or an attribute. Be carefull, do not use hasProperty (for check if it is an attribute) at first try, because I have found out that methods are sometimes also identified as attributes but not the other way around. Well, for my purpose XIntrospection would suffice, but somehow (have not been able to really trace this down and hence have not been able to come up with a stable nutshell-example so others can get that effect as well) in my configuration the Java based Introspection under OOo 1.1.4 and 1.9.x will become unoperational (cannot instantiate the Introspection class anymore) eventually. The only remedy so far has been to de-install OOo, run a few different registry cleaners and reboot. Something, which doesn't bode very well (but again: I have not been able to come up with a nutshell example for this behaviour). So what I am doing now is creating a Java class on my own which should contain all the definitions of a UNO class, which are needed at runtime to figure out which field, method of an interface/service contained in a class could be meant by a macro coder; very much like Star Basic or the native Python implementation do. For that class I try to circumvent the Java XIntrospection, because I *think* (I do *not* *know*) , better: I speculate, that that may be be causing troubles. If not, I will get hit anyway and then I hope to be able to come up with a Java-only testcase in a nutshell to demo the behaviour. Again, thank you and Jürgen very much for your helpful suggestions!

printf(UNO bridge 1 is named\t%s\n, (char*) brname.getStr());
}
/code
the sequence returns one single bridge (I checked with getLength() on
the seq) with the name u.
So my question is:
What does this method really return? The documentation talks about a
full list of all unnamed and named bridges, but yet it does only
return me 1 entry in C++ and nothing at all in SB.
Trying to extract some logic out of the results, it rather seems to me
as if the function only checks for the bridges that are currently in
active use, ie the cpp bridge would be used when calling from C++, but
then why is it named u?

when I asked about this a long time ago, I was told that ther is no

do this.
for example if you are using java, use the java-api for finding the printers
the code below might help you if you are using java
public String[] getDefinedPrintersOnServer(){
PrintService[] printers =
printServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(null,null);
String[] data = new String[printers.length];
for(int i=0; iprinters.length; i++){
data[i] = printers[i].getName();
}
return data;
}
to be able to use these printers in openoffice (in va 1.1.x atleast,
hav enot checked with the 1.9 series) you might have to add and
around the name... so if you get Hp color jet from the system call,
to be able to use it in openoffice you might have to supply the name
Hp color jet
Is there any way to do this in OOo BASIC?
I don't know of any way, but I'm no expert, I stopped investigate this,
when I started to use the java way of doing things (most of my code
was developed in java anyway)
but with OOo 2 betas (1.9.x) you might be able to use the above code
with little rewriting as a bsh script (bsh is scripting with java) which
I think you can include inside your document..

thank you for your feedback. It has clarified some things for me, but
also one point is still up: XTypeDescriptionEnumerationAccess
.createTypeDescriptionEnumeration() seems not to work as announced in
the docs: the enumeration can be restricted if one supplies a sequence
of TypeClass values. Whenever I try to do that, an empty enumeration is
created (I would be intrested in interfaces and services only).

The problem here is thast you search with
TypeDescriptionSearchDepth.ONE in module com.sun.star for interfaces.
TypeDescriptionSearchDepth.ONE means only in this module and not
recursive. But in this module you will not find any interfaces. At
this point you have to search with TypeDescriptionSearchDepth.INFINITE
or you have to specify for exampe com.sun.star.lang
There are four examples of getting an enumeration above: the very first
two *use* INFINITE. Yet the very first version where I explictly list
TypeClass.INTERFACE and TypeClass.SERVICE returns an empty enumeration,
the second one (givign no restrictions) brings them up.
Of course, your observation is right, that the base module
com.sun.star has no interfaces (just modules), so I changed the
program to work on com.sun.star.text, which posesses interfaces, yet,
tdEnum4 (using ONE) above does still *not* yield an enumeration
containing elements, although interfaces at that level *are* defined.
This is the relevant output (which now also shows the module's name),
other than that it is the same as above, where tdEnum1 through tdEnum4
use variations of the arguments for createTypeDescriptionEnumeration():

[api-dev] Problem to identify the name of a chart
Hello,
I'm working on an OpenOffice-based Report-Framework and have a problem
with the identification of a chart by its name. The methods
XTableCharts.getElementNames() and XTableCharts.getByName(String)
refer to the internal name of the chart, i.e. Object 1. What I need
is the name, which the user can set via the function Set name ... of
the context menu of a chart. In the XML-Source it is the value of the
attribute draw:name of the draw:frame-Element, what I need. How can I
access this name by the API? Can anyone help me?
- XML-Source of the chart --
draw:frame draw:name=myChart
draw:object draw:notify-on-update-of-ranges=SampleData.A2:SampleData.D21

// This source doesn't work, because it checks the internal name of the chart

Re: [api-dev] META-INF and mimetype files in zip archive
Hi Michele, That happens because the initial purpose of the Package service is to access OOo packages formats, and META-INF/manifest.xml is part of this format. If a pure zip-file access is requested then either the special UCP should be used or the Package service must be initialized in a special way. Since your code already uses the Package service the second way seems to be the best one: - please just add to the sequence of Any that is provided on Package service initialization an additional entry representing object of type ::com::sun::star::beans::NamedValue; the Name member must be initialized with the string PackageFormat and the Value must contain Any representing boolean value false. Hope that helps. Regards, Mikhail. Michele Zarri wrote: Hello there, I already posted this message in the users mailing list, but I was advised that this list was more appropriate for this kind of questions, so here we go. I have written a macro that at a certain point in time zips some files using the service com.sun.star.packages.Package. The problem I am having is that when the zip archive is created (independently from the type of the file I am trying to zip) it contains on top of the file zipped a directory called META-INF as well as a file called mimetype. Is there any way to ask the UNO service not to generate these files (it kind of annoys my colleagues how also generate zip archives in the same folder?

[api-dev] Connect to a remote office on another machine from SB
Hi all, often it has been talked about that OOo is perfectly capable of acting as a server on one machine and listening for UNO connections from other machines. Up till now I haven't seen a lot of examples showing this, so I just wanted to test if this was practically possible (inspired by a question on oooforum.org) and started a soffice process in listening mode in my wlan on Mac OS X Tiger. I chose to use Starbasic as it shows that you can purely do a socket connection with the OOo API. I used the UnoUrlResolver service as it is used in other languages as well to connect to a running Office, but you can probably also use the XConnector which gives you more low-level power. Also there is a Socket service in the io module. Of course it is probably not that efficient to use Starbasic, since you need to run OOo two times (on server and client machine) but well, it works ;-). I executed the SB code from a Win32 machine, having tested just this case up till now (Win32-Mac OS X), of course you shouldn't have firewalls running and make sure there are no heavy security settings turned on, in case you want to test the code. code Sub connectToRemoteOffice() '192.168.2.103 is the TCP/IP address of the server running OOo with '-accept=socket,host=0,port=8100;urp;StarOffice.ServiceManager' res = createUNOService(com.sun.star.bridge.UnoUrlResolver) remotemgr = res.resolve(uno:socket,host=192.168.2.103,port=8100;urp;StarOffice.ServiceManager) desk = remotemgr.createInstance(com.sun.star.frame.Desktop) desk.loadComponentFromURL(private:factory/swriter, _blank, 0, Array()) 'look on the server monitor now :-) End Sub /code As you can see it's just a few lines, so it's very simple and clean code. Hope this helps someone out there somehow. -- Best Regards Christian Junker - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[api-dev] Having a FilePicker: how to bring it to front ?
Hi there,
did try to find a solution firstly by searching the api-search interface
to no avail. (E.g.
http://api.openoffice.org/servlets/Search?scope=projectAndSubsresultsPerPage=40query=bring+to+frontButton=Go,
short of a document object at that point in time I cannot try to use
that for getting access at the CurrentController).
The problem: for a conversion from a writer-document to pdf the user is
presented with a FilePicker dialog only, where he should pick the file
to be converted, and which gets loaded therafter into OOo. Unfortunately
the dialog is not displayed as the top/front window, so the user needs
to get it to front manually.
What would be a starting point to research to get the FilePicker to the
front programmatically (without having a document object yet)?
Regards,
---rony
P.S.: In case it is helpful (or if some are a little bit curious) I
copied that particular ooRexx script, so you can see the flow of logic.
ooRexx is case-insensitive and the tilde (~) is the message operator
(hence it is clear that the literal right to it is always the message
name to be sent to the object left to it). Routines like ConvertToURL()
or ConvertFromURL() are named/modelled after {Star|OOo]Basic. (The next
steps are to forego the explicit need for requesting interface objects
like Basic allows for; although in the meantime I am not so sure whether
that will be really so helpful to macro/script programmers, because
requesting explicitly interfaces makes it perfect clear over time what
functionality is sought and is available; yet some people may still want
that feature; that's the reason why I was so eager to learn about
reflecting UNO and being able to do it via Java, which serves as a
bridging technology.)

Thanks for rapid reply!
I found the solution by my self in mean time. Here's the code in Java
public void setColumnProperty(Object xTable, int column, String
propertyName, Object propertyValue) throws Exception {
try {
//Check an instance of passed object
if(!(xTable instanceof XTextTable))
throw new InvalidObjectException(Passed xTable is not a
XTextTable object);
//Get cell range for whole text table
XCellRange xCellRange = (XCellRange)
UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XCellRange.class, (XTextTable)xTable );
//Get rows from the table, this is used to get the rows count.
XIndexAccess xRows = ((XTextTable)xTable).getRows();
//Get cell range for specified column
XCellRange xColumn =
xCellRange.getCellRangeByPosition(column, 0, column, xRows.getCount()-1);
//Get properties for the column
XPropertySet xColProps = (XPropertySet)
UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XPropertySet.class, xColumn);
//And set the property ... ufff
xColProps.setPropertyValue(propertyName, propertyValue);
}
catch(com.sun.star.uno.Exception e) {
throw (RuntimeException) new RuntimeException(Can't set
column properties).initCause(e);
}
}
BTW, why there are no simple interface to use text table columns,
similar as text table rows?

Hi Stephan, What would be a starting point to research to get the FilePicker to the front programmatically (without having a document object yet)? Now I'm curious ... Great! ;) the filepicker is a modal dialog that is always on top and can't be moved to the back ... just to be sure I opened it via Basic, Java and UI and in all three cases the dialog persists in the front of the application. Yes, relative to OOo. The problem is to bring it into the front of all other windows that may exist on the system (make it to be the first in z-order). Which platform are you working on ? At the moment on Windows (but I usually switch to Linux from time to time to check, whether the ooRexx scripts and OOo are really multi-platform). Do you get the OOo-FilePicker or the System-FilePicker ? The OOo-FilePicker, I assume, the routine getFile() shows which one. (Definitely not directly the Windows widget/control, but the one OOo uses.) In the second case, have you tried to switch to the OOo-Filepicker by setting Tools-Options-General-Use OOo Dialogs ? *WOW*, *that* made it work, thank you *very* much!! (Did try it on OOo 1.1.4 and 1.9.122.) (Also, it is interesting that now only one instance of OOo is shown in the taskbar, whereas beforehand two were created, and closed after the end of the program.) Now a lest (little?) request: how can one set the properties for OOo altogether (would just need a hint where - which class - or code-samples to start researching this corner of OOo, including the ability to learn about the version one is using). This way one can read, set and re-set the setting in the case one wishes to use the FilePicker.

[api-dev] XCellDataRange :: Where am I going wrong
I have a simple function. This function is failing, so it prints

Any suggestion where I am going wrong ?
uno::Any

I always get the printf ERROR in the setValue :(
The same function works properly if I directly work with

according to cppu/inc/com/sun/star/uno/Any.hxx the statement (aAny =

looking at this, seems this is really a basic problem ( bug? ).
the basic code is something like;
Dim obj1 as myModule.XSomething
Dim obj2 as myModule.XSomething
obj1.Value = obj2.Value
where obj1 obj2 are uno objects with Value as an attribute e.g.
module myModule
{
interface XSomething
{
[attribute] any Value;
}
}
the code ( in a previous posting ) getValue() returns an uno::Any
containing uno::Sequence uno::Sequence uno::Any and of course
setValue() takes a ref to an uno::Any containing uno::Sequence
uno::Sequence uno::Any
this fails because when Basic unwraps the any it converts it into a
sequence of sequence of ( the type the Any contains )
so for example in the code that Jayant posted the sequence in question is
uno::Sequence uno::Sequence uno::Any where the Any contains a
rtl::OUString
.
then setValue() fails because it is sent a
uno::Sequence uno::Sequence rtl::OUString by Basic instead of the
expected type and of course the test mentioned fails because it should.

Re: [api-dev] XCellDataRange :: Where am I going wrong
Hi Daniel / Noel,
Five interesting facts:
* The getValue and setValue is working perfectly fine wrt single Value
OUString or long. Its the third type uno::Sequence
uno::Sequenceuno::Any that is not working :(
* The = and = is working perfectly fine for uno::Sequence
uno::Sequenceuno::Any in the code sc//unoobj/cellsuno.cxx
--function-- getDataArray() (also check
ScRangeToSequence::FillMixedArray ).
* As Noel suggested, there is a possibility that something is going
wrong in basic module. Any to OUString conversion etc.
* One interesting fact is that, I had put printf in the code for
operator overloading = and =
cppu//Any.hxx.
const Type rType = getCppuType( value ); //and also
rAny
rtl::OUString aName = rType.getTypeName();
print_oustring(aName); //my local function
and the printf gave proper result :) ie [ ][ ] any for both get and
set. I could not veryfy the data part of the
cppu//assign.hxx b'se it is bit complex.
* In the getValue() the values are filled properly ? Here is the test
code snippert that I had written before posting the query.
uno::Sequence uno::Sequence uno::Any aSeq =
xData-getDataArray();
uno::Any test = aSeq[0][0];
print_String_from_any(test); //my local function
aAny = aSeq; //Fill the data to Any

When Basic subsequently uses this value e.g. to pass to a method (expecting an Any ) of another uno object, it (Basic) passes is an Any containing [ Sequence Sequence something else e.g. sal_Int32, String etc. ] but not what the code expects e.g. a [ Sequence Sequence Any ] ;-) so I feel this is a bug, Andreas would know best about that, I'll raise a bug for that. But, you could help here with your expert knowledge, if know of an easy programmatic way to determine the exact type of whats in the Any especially with respect to Sequences Sequences that would be great ;-) Noel - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

A sketch of the new code line and arguments added to subroutines is: sub dshape() . . Dim Shape1(2999) As New com.sun.star.awt.Point . . readdata(Shape1) . . PolyPolygonShape.PolyPolygon = Array(Shape1()) . . . sub readdata(Shape1 as variant) . . . shape1(ii-1).x = val(mid(CLine, 5, 15)) . . shape1(ii-1).y = val(mid(CLine, 5, 15)) . . . Thanks again!

It's not only important for developers who want to develop applications with OOo to know these well. There is also always room for improvement in such documents. Thus, read the documentation: - http://api.openoffice.org/DevelopersGuide/DevelopersGuide.html - http://api.openoffice.org/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/module-ix.html And when you find anything to improve which you think should actually be improved, report an issue to IssueZilla.

[api-dev] 2.0 and changing JAVA-Settings
Hi, asking on dev-dba, Frank redirected me to this list. I want to automate the Java-Settings during and after the installation. So, if a JDBC-Driver is required, the users have to add a classpath via GUI and restart the application. Is there a way to automate this via scripting? There's no jvmsetup in 2.0 anymore, I think.

Re: [api-dev] 2.0 and changing JAVA-Settings
Hi, There is a C API (jvmfwk/framework.h) which you can use to set the class path for the current user. It is not possible to set it for all users or particular JREs. I am not sure if you can use a C API from Basic or the other scripting languages. If it is not possible, but it is really important to you, then you could still code a UNO service (C++) that uses this API. The service can then be called from Basic.

Hi Fabricio, How can I hide a document text field using the API (without macros)? Here´s the code that I use for accessing the textfield: XTextFieldsSupplier xTextFieldsSupplier = (XTextFieldsSupplier) UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XTextFieldsSupplier.class, component); XNameAccess xNamedFieldMasters = xTextFieldsSupplier.getTextFieldMasters(); XEnumerationAccess xEnumeratedFields = xTextFieldsSupplier.getTextFields(); String completeName = com.sun.star.text.FieldMaster.User. + textFieldName; Object fieldMaster = xNamedFieldMasters.getByName(completeName); the TextFields has a property called IsVisible ... setting this to false will hide your User-TextFields. Somethings like XPropertySet FieldProperties = (XPropertySet) UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XPropertySet.class, xEnumeratedFields.nextElement()) FieldProperties.setPropertyValue(IsVisible,Boolean.FALSE) should hide the first textfield in your enumeration ... that is if it is a User-Field ;-) Hope that helps Regards Stephan - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What we will do in DBA is that instead of using the office-wide classpath (Tools|Options|Java|Classpath), we will allow to have a per-database classpath. However, users will still expect that the Tools|Options classpath does work, too. (As they will expect that the system's class path does work, which unfortunately isn't the case even today.) I don't know which changes exactly you plan, but will a UNO component (e.g. database driver) loading a (arbitrary, non-UNO) Java class still use the Tools|Options (or perhaps even the system's) classpath? This is desirable since there might be multiple JDBC-based databases using the same Java class, and of course user's don't want to enter the same classpath again and again. Also, even if what Stephan describes is a hack, it sounds like a convenient way to deploy a Java class into a OOo installation. Shouldn't we continue to offer this convenience, the one way or the other? The more since programmatic manipulation of the office-wide classpath is not possible, since no API (not even configuration API) exists for it. This means that in order to deploy a Java class into a office installation, users would be required to manually add this class to the class path of all of it's clients (which as said could be multiple databases), instead of simply announcing the class *once* to the office installation as a whole.

Is there no API to change classpath for all users or is it really not possible - i.e. is there really no place where a shared or default classpath is stored? If there really is no possibility, then that is a huge problem for large deployments. Otherwise, if there is a file to edit, then that of course could be scripted. Ciao, Joerg copying the javasettings_windows_x86.xml into UserProfile/config did the job. Couldn't believe, that it is so easy.

Hi Pierre-Andre, Selon Pierre-André [EMAIL PROTECTED]: First of all, I would like to apologize for the delay in my answer.

Giving the choice to select which type of project each one wants to develop could help and create more specific code. For the moment I have developped a new wizard to create generic OOo projects. There is an editor for idl files and all the compiler chain for Java. The next release adds a new service wizard: this helps a idl writer to create a new service (as specified in the OOo2.0 grammar). This will lead to more specified wizards for Calc and Chart add-ins, Add-ons and remote OOo clients. However your propositions are interesting: this could be very useful to manage XSL filters, or generate the package for an add-on. This simply takes a lot of time that I do not have for the moment. School will begin after the OOoCon2005 and I'll have much less time (even tought I want to spare some times with girlfriend (I don't know how to say fiancée in english :-()) To continue your effort, it would be nice to have the same for C++ or Python with KDevelop !

[api-dev] How to connect to an OpenOffice on a computer you don't know?
Hello! I want to write a small application which uses OpenOffice and which I want to share with others as freeware. The problems are: - I don't know which port the OpenOffice is listing to (or if it listens at all). What is the recommended way? I don't want the user to change the Setup.xcu manually. - I don't know which path OpenOffice is installed. The problem is that I need to know where the DLLs (for example cppu3.dll) are located to set the path of my application. The application should be written in C++, but I assume the problem occurs in other languages as well. Thanks in advance.

Hi Jürgen, first of all i like the question on your subject, it was really fun in the morning ;-) I do my very best ;-) You shouldn't use a socket connection. Take a look into the new SDK for OO2.0 and into the examples using the new simple bootstrap mechanism. With this new bootstrap mechanism it is not necessary to know where the office is installed. You siumply run your application and it starts the default office (if one is availble) of the user automatically. Works great, thanks! Thats really easy, and you don't have to play around what happens if OO hasn't been started yet. - I don't know which path OpenOffice is installed.

Thanks for that, too. I assume the source is available for that, because I already got an apploader for my app and in integration would be nice (but not necessary ;-)) Martin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[api-dev] Force reformat in Writer?
Hello!
I want to find a word in a Writers document and add text-sentences there
until a new page is created.
I use XPageCursor to determinate how many pages there are in the document.
My problem is: After insertion of a text-sentence, it seems that the layout
is not updated immediately (especially if there is a lot of other text after
the inserted text). So my function to get the page-count doesn't work
correctly at this time.
It however works correctly when adding a Sleep-command after the insertion.
I tried XTextDocument::reformat to enforce the reformatting, but without
success.
Any ideas about it?
Thanks in advance
Martin
Code (to test it I'm just inserting paragraphs), using OO 1.9.125:
void OOExpandToPageEnd(ReferenceXInterface rDoc, CString sTag)
{ // Find sTag
Reference XSearchable rSearchable ( rDoc, UNO_QUERY );
Reference XSearchDescriptor rSearch =
rSearchable-createSearchDescriptor();
Reference XPropertyReplace rPropSearch (rSearch, UNO_QUERY);
rPropSearch-setPropertyValue(ToStr(SearchCaseSensitive),
makeAny((sal_Bool)false));
rPropSearch-setPropertyValue(ToStr(SearchWords),
makeAny((sal_Bool)false));
rSearch-setSearchString(ToStr(sTag));
Reference XTextRange rFound (rSearchable-findFirst(rSearch),
UNO_QUERY);
if (!rFound.is())
{ return ;
}
// Get originally page-count
int nCount = OOGetPageCount(rDoc);
Reference XSimpleText rText (rFound-getText(), UNO_QUERY);
Reference XTextDocument rTxtDoc ( rDoc, UNO_QUERY );
int nCountCurrent = OOGetPageCount(rDoc);
while (nCountCurrent == nCount)
{ rText-insertControlCharacter(rFound-getStart(),
ControlCharacter::PARAGRAPH_BREAK, false);
rTxtDoc-reformat(); // - Doesn't make OOGetPageCount to
work
// Sleep(500); // - Makes OOGetPageCount to work
nCountCurrent = OOGetPageCount(rDoc);
}
}
int OOGetPageCount(ReferenceXInterface rInterface)
{ ReferenceXModel rModel (rInterface, UNO_QUERY);
ReferenceXTextViewCursorSupplier rCurSup
(rModel-getCurrentController(), UNO_QUERY);
ReferenceXPageCursor rCursor (rCurSup-getViewCursor(),
UNO_QUERY);
rCursor-jumpToLastPage();
return rCursor-getPage();
}
