Hello,
As proof of concept, I'd like to add new toolbars (first in Writer,
later in other applications). The problem is, I'm not sure to do that
the right way. Of course, this can seriously be improved, but what I
need is a proof of concept, not a final product for the moment
First, I created e.g. writercycle2.xml, writercycle3.xml, two custom
toolbars. Putting those .xml file in sw/uiconfig/swriter/toolbar,
they are correctly packaged, and bundled. No problem with that.
*Question 1* : shall I register those new toolbar. e.g. in framework/
collector/cmduicollector.cxx or somewhere else ? (currently : I
didn't register them, since they are automagically packaged in
postprocess, but maybe this is not sufficient)
For Writer, the choice was to modify WriterWindowState.xcu , located
in org/openoffice/Office/UI path
The idea is to display only one between 3 toolbars :
- writercycle2.xml for the Beginner level
- writercycle3.xml for the Average level
- standardbar.xml (already existing), for the Expert level
... means have only the "Visible" property == true, in same time for
one toolbar only, while the other have false (e.g. writercycle2 and
writercycle3 have Visible=false, standardbar has visible == true,
when the "Expert" level is checked).
In the code (in svx/source/cui/optgdlg.cxx), I proceeed as follow,
e.g. for the getToolbarState (the setter is similar)
static const OUString sULConfigSrvc( RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM
( "com.sun.star.configuration.ConfigurationProvider" ) );
static const OUString sULAccessSrvc( RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM
( "com.sun.star.configuration.ConfigurationUpdateAccess" ) );
/* adapt the toolbars to the level */
// The standard toolbar
static const OUString sStandardbarToolbarNode
( RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM( "/
org.openoffice.Office.UI.WriterWindowState/UIElements/States/
private:resource/toolbar/standardbar" ) );
// Writer toolbars
static const OUString sWriterCycle2ToolbarNode
( RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM( "/
org.openoffice.Office.UI.WriterWindowState/UIElements/States/
private:resource/toolbar/writercycle2" ) );
static const OUString sWriterCycle3ToolbarNode
( RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM( "/
org.openoffice.Office.UI.WriterWindowState/UIElements/States/
private:resource/toolbar/writercycle3" ) );
//*Question 2* : is the path above correct ? WriterWindowState does
contain the nodes, themselves containing the property "Visible" (see
below), I'd like to set as true/false, as an OUString (is the type
correct btw, because the .xcs is not clear about that ?)
// Visible property
static const OUString sToolbarPropertyNameVisible( rtl::OUString
( RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM( "Visible" ) ) );
I pasted the getter below. The problem is, there is no crash, but it
does not work,, I don't see why an exception is caught. The line
causing that is :
Reference< XNameAccess > xConfigAccess( Reference< XNameAccess >
(xConfigProvider->createInstanceWithArguments( sULAccessSrvc,
aArgs ), UNO_QUERY ));
*Question 3*: is something obviously wrong ? Is the WriterWindowState
in read only mode ? ( or lazy_write ? )
*Question 4* : I was searching with OpenGrok since yesterday, and the
most usefull example I found, is windowstateconfiguration.cxx
(located in framework/source/uiconfiguration), but the interface is
not public, so, looks like a bad track :-/ Is there something
usefull on tools ?
*Question 5* : I'd like to see the toolbar change *immediately*
visible, i.e. without the need to relaunch the office. How proceed ?
Which event, signal has to be sent ? and is there an example in the
code I could reuse ? Any idea or suggestion ?
Must be obvious, but any hint would help me a lot. Thanks a lot in
advance !!
