Hi,

I'm fairly new on the field and wanted to start developing an extension to be used in Writer. I started on reading the wiki and just tried to follow the tutorial here: https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/JavaEclipseTuto Unfortunately when it comes to exporting the module in Eclipse File -> Export -> UNO -> OpenOffice.org package, nothing happens. From my pov I have two possibilities now: ask if sb can help troubleshoot or build the module somehow manually. Since I am a beginner, I am not restricted in writing the extension in Java. Another possibility I considered is to write in python. I chose Java because it seemed to me the more stable and documented approach to get in touch. I'm free for suggestions regarding the language.

My system:
Win10 x64
OO 4.12.9782
OO SDK 4.12.9782
(note: OO installed with x86 instead of x64)

What I tried:
- reinstall of all features
- changed the eclipse plugin from (http://www.openoffice.org/api/Projects/EclipseIntegration/dev-update/site.xml) to (http://drake79.users.sourceforge.net/ooeclipse/site) due to the issue described here (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17980315/openoffice-eclipse-plugin-doesnt-recognize-openoffice-sdk) - reinstalled OO and removed the spaces in path (I saw a hint during installation stating that spaces in paths might break the build)

Disclaimer: I don't know whether this is the appropriate newsgroup to post such kind of questions. Please give hints if there might be a more suitable place. Please tell me if you need further info.

Thanks in advance!
Greetings

Hi Christian,

I admit not knowing much about the Eclipse plugin.

There is a good chance the AOO 4.x changes broke it due to the SDK directory changes.

If you want to try to fix the eclipse plugin you could look through the changes made to the NetBeans plugin.

I updated the NetBeans plugin for these changes under bugzilla issue 123266 here [1].

Or you could use the NetBeans plugin. It is available through the NetBeans plugins UI. or download from NetBeans.org. [2]

After you generate an extension project you could probably import it to Eclipse as it's an Apache Ant based build but I've never tried.
