Curious about the Windows version of AOO and its support via OLE/COM:

 * What are the ProgIds to use to automate AOO? Found the following ones with "office", "star" in 
them:

   # 1928/2226: ProgId: [TFCOfficeShim.Connect]
   # 1929/2226: ProgId: [TFCOfficeShim.ControlHost.14]
   # 1930/2226: ProgId: [TFCOfficeShim.GetAddIn]

   G:\tmp\orx\ole\oleinfo\work>listProgIds.rex star
   #  175/2226: ProgId: [bhWM2Core.ctlServerStartscreen]
   #  179/2226: ProgId: [bhWM2Core.ctlStartscreen]
   #  319/2226: ProgId: [com.sun.star.ServiceManager]
   #  772/2226: ProgId: [JavaWebStart.isInstalled]
   # 1560/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarCalcDocument.6]
   # 1561/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarDrawDocument.6]
   # 1562/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarImpressDocument.6]
   # 1563/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarMathDocument.6]
   # 1564/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarWriterDocument.6]

   Trying to get at the published interfaces for e.g. 
"soffice.StarWriterDocument.6" does not
   return any published methods, properties, events and constants as is the 
case with MS Office. So
   wondering whether there are other ProgIDs for AOO on Windows registered that 
one should use
   instead? (Usually there are version independent ProgIDs which seems to not 
be the case here.)

 * Is there an AOO typelib available that would supply the published interfaces 
usable via OLE? If
   so what would be the name and how would one install them?

---rony




This may not be what you're looking for but I found this about an OLE bridge 
[1].
From the spec...
"The bridge is automatically used when someone access the Office through the COM mechanism. This 
is done by creating the service manager component, that has the ProgId 
"com.sun.star.ServiceManager". The service manager can then be used to create additional UNO 
services. There is no explicit mapping from COM to UNO or vice versa necessary. All objects which 
have been obtained directly or indirectly from the service manager are already COM objects. "


[1] https://www.openoffice.org/udk/common/man/spec/ole_bridge.html

Best regards,
Carl



After reading through the documentation it is clear that (as impressive as the COM/UNO integration 
is!) no type information gets published via OLE, cf. 
:


   9 Limitations of the dispatch objects

   The dispatch objects provided by the bridge do not support type information.
   IDispatch::GetTypeInfoCount and IDispatch::GetTypeInfo return E_NOTIMPL. 
Moreover there are no
   COM type libraries available and the dispatch objects do not implement 
IProvideClassInfo as well.

   IDispatch::GetIDsOfName has to be called for every name separately. That 
this one cannot query
   the ids for several names at a time.

   IDispatch::Invoke does not support named arguments nor the pExcepInfo and 
puArgErr parameter.

---

Not sure whether attachments get stripped on this mailing list or not. But if the attachments get 
through you will see how an OLE/COM object that publishes its interfaces can get exploited to create 
on-the-fly documentation that is meant for helping programmers. The documentation in this case is 
for the MS Internet Explorer (but Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook, AutoCAD, etc. would work as 
well). It would have been great if the same would have been possible for AOO!


Again, thank you for researching and your link that is very interesting!

Best regards

 It would be great if we had a transparent background and svg versions of

 We have an svg version of the orb here:

 I can’t find an svg of the full website logo. Does anyone know of one?
 An svg should convert any fonts to shapes

 (1) The Forum header - https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/logo_forum.png

 The same graphic on every forum right now. Size is 450px x 77px. Extra 
 credit if someone can create versions for: ES, FR, HU, IT, JA, NL, and PL. 
 VI is read-only and ZH is non-functional and not currently available.

 The size is 268px x 100px

Re: [GRAPHICS] Help with SVG versions of AOO website logo and Forum Header

2022-05-10 Thread Pedro Lino
Hi Dave

I will upload or send to you by email the SVG(s) later today.

Can you use the SVG directly on the page? Wouldn't that be preferable instead 
of PNGs?

Separate issue:
I opened the Spanish forum on Firefox running on Linux and it looks good. 
However opening the same page on Android is missing some elements. I used 
Firefox and Vivaldi and in both the top bar is missing as well as the "Enlaces 
rápidos" text
I just switched to the EN page and the same problems occur on my Android 7.1.2 
mobile

Best,
Pedro
