Is C++ recommended for extensions ? Can it lead to problems ?
It leads to the "problem" that you need to compile for all platforms
separately.
Also linux-Distributions compile with system-stlport and not agains
the version that comes with OOo sources. So c++ extensions are
incompatible between vanilla and distro-version (unless distribution
also provides OOo's version)
I'd go for java (but mainly because I know java better :-)) Only
drawback of java is rather slow start of the JVM - but that's not a
problem if the JVM is loaded anyway.
On hardware of this century and with the lastest JVMs this shouldn't be
problem. If you don't have a problem with Java (technically or
ideologically wise), go for it! It's the best programming language for
OOo extensions that should run on several platforms.

Mathias

I use it for the OOo lists and only rarely read other mails sent to it.
