Hello Stephan, Yes, this is a Linux system and I'm invoking uno-skeletonmaker thus:
david@anon:~> "$OFFICE_HOME"/sdk/bin/uno-skeletonmaker calc-add-in --java5 -l "$OFFICE_PROGRAM_PATH"/types.rdb -n org.openoffice.adl.util.CalcDL1 -t CalcDL1 ERROR: Unknown entity 'CalcDL1' david@anon:~> I'd already found the '-l' trap for the unwary the hard way (and it also occurs in 'javamaker')! My problem now is that a value for '-t' is apparently mandatory for the 'calc-add-in' command but I don't understand what to put there. The uno-skeletonmaker source code, its help text, and every other reference have identical wording: "-t <name> specifies a UNOIDL type name, e.g. com.sun.star.text.XText (can be used more than once)”. Since '-l' already points to types.rdb you'd think '-t' wouldn't be needed. The phrasing "-t CalcDL1" was just a guess as I'd read some source code which seemed to imply a service-name was required. _ __Regards, David_ On 24/1/23 01:15, Stephan Bergmann wrote: > On 23/01/2023 03:45, David wrote: >> According to >> https://api.libreoffice.org/docs/tools.html#uno-skeletonmaker the >> argument ‘-t’ “specifies a UNOIDL type name, e.g. >> com.sun.star.text.XText (can be used more than once)”.
