Hi Kirill,

it is already possible to have multiple instances of OOo on one computer. Your described scenario is also possible and you can manage your own copy of OOo in the context of your application. You can use your own application specific user directory, can control the life cycle and can connect to exactly your configured office from your own application.

You can start the office listening on a specific pipe, connect your app to this pipe and everything else is the same as before. See the SDK examples how to connect to an office via a socket connection. Simply replace the socket connection with a pipe connection. See the DevGuide in the wiki for more details.

Dear OpenOffice Development,

My name is Kirill, and I am Software Engineering Professional.

Let me ask you several questions concerning integration of Open Office into
my project.

The matter is that I would like to call OpenOffice from my Java application.
If there is no OpenOffice installed on the computer, I think it is good to
run a copy of OpenOffice, supplied with my application. But As I know,
OpenOffile under Linux can be started only if it was installed as a package.
How it is possible to run OpenOffice using UNO without installing (merely
copied OO to specified folder, for example)?  What about having several
instances of Open Office at one time in the system? Thank you very much!


Sincerely yours,
Kirill
