Marc,
That macro does it exactly. It works (in my tests) on 1.1.3 and
2.0beta(aka 1.9.79).
In my java test's I try getting the DefaultRegistry but line (3) in
my code snippet below returns null (resulting of course in an NPE on
line 4). Any one know why?
Is this even a 'best practice' of dealing with this issue?
thanks,
mike
-------------------- Code Snippet --------------------
1. Object oSimpleRegistry = xMCF.createInstanceWithContext(
2. "com.sun.star.registry.DefaultRegistry", xContext);
3. XSimpleRegistry registry = (XSimpleRegistry)
UnoRuntime.queryInterface(com.sun.star.registry.XSimpleRegistry.class,
oSimpleRegistry);
4. XRegistryKey root = registry.getRootKey();
XRegistryKey org = root.openKey("org");
XRegistryKey openoffice = org.openKey("openoffice");
XRegistryKey setup = openoffice.openKey("Setup");
XRegistryKey product = setup.openKey("Product");
String[] products = setup.getStringListValue();
System.out.println("products.length='"+products.length+"'");
for (int i=0; i<products.length; i++) {
System.out.println("product["+i+"]='"+products[i]+"'");
}
