thanks for the details. What you said about adding a model to the media descriptor seems very interesting. However it does not seem to be documented. I tried something quickly along these lines:
XModel model = ( XModel ) UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XModel.class, connection.getTextDocument()); PropertyValue prop1 = new PropertyValue(); prop1.Name = "Model"; prop1.Value = model; loadedComponent = frameComponentLoader.loadComponentFromURL( "private:stream", "_self", 0, args ); and I get om.sun.star.lang.IllegalArgumentException: URL seems to be an unsupported one. --- Mathias Bauer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Kent Gibson wrote: > > > argh. please help. this is driving me batty. > > > > Ok i have an empty frame, > > > > XWindow xWindow = ( XWindow ) > > UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XWindow.class, > > officeWindow.getUNOWindowPeer() ); > > object = serviceFactory.createInstance( > > "com.sun.star.frame.Frame" ); > > XFrame documentFrame = ( XFrame ) > > UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XFrame.class, object ); > > documentFrame.initialize( xWindow ); > > documentFrame.setName( documentFrame.toString() ); > > > > // Register frame at the desktop > > XFrames xFrames = ( ( XFramesSupplier ) > > UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XFramesSupplier.class, > > desktop ) ).getFrames(); > > xFrames.append( documentFrame ); > > > > then I go and create a blank document and put it > into > > my frame: > > > > XComponentLoader frameComponentLoader = ( > > XComponentLoader ) UnoRuntime.queryInterface( > > XComponentLoader.class, documentFrame); > > loadedComponent = > > frameComponentLoader.loadComponentFromURL( url, > > "_self", 0, args ); > > > > the purpose so that I can see a nice blank doc. > > > > then I go and create another blank doc.
