Difference between revisions of "Office modules since OpenOffice.org 2.3"

Revision as of 18:52, 13 November 2007

Since OpenOffice.org 2.3 the context for UI configuration has grown up to 20 modules. This was mainly due to the new feature that allows OpenOffice.org Base to have separated UI configuration modules for database forms and database reports, so that the settings are not shared with text documents anymore.

List of available modules

The following is an up-to-date list of available modules (in brackets is a short description):

How to get the module's names

You can get a list of modules by querying the service com.sun.star.frame.ModuleManager.

Example in Java:

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
            com.sun.star.uno.XComponentContext xContext = 
                    com.sun.star.comp.helper.Bootstrap.bootstrap();
            
            com.sun.star.uno.XInterface xInterface = 
                    (com.sun.star.uno.XInterface) 
                        xContext.getServiceManager().createInstanceWithContext(
                            "com.sun.star.frame.ModuleManager", xContext);
            
            com.sun.star.container.XNameAccess xNameAccess = 
                    (com.sun.star.container.XNameAccess) 
                        com.sun.star.uno.UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
                            com.sun.star.container.XNameAccess.class, xInterface);
            
            String[] modules = xNameAccess.getElementNames();
            for (String module : modules) {
                System.out.println( module );
            }
            
        } catch (com.sun.star.comp.helper.BootstrapException e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (com.sun.star.uno.Exception e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (java.lang.Exception e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        } finally {
            System.exit( 0 );
        }
    }

Example in OpenOffice.org Basic

Sub OOoModules
   Dim oModuleManager as Object
   oModuleManager = createUnoService("com.sun.star.frame.ModuleManager")
   MsgBox Join(oModuleManager.getElementNames(), chr(10)),64, "OpenOffice.org Modules"
End Sub
