I have created a text file test script in compliance with your instructions and called 'cscript' by directly defining the script engine using the '/e:javascript' parameter.

C:\cygwin\home\Jason and Emma\scripttest.txt(1, 1) Microsoft JScript runtime error: Automation server can't create object I guess that this would imply an issue with my individual set-up, as it seems that the use of the parameter that you and Thorsten have identified would work in the majority of cases. Would anybody know what may have prevented this from working?
Some googling around suggests that this has something to do with Internet Exploder security zones, but who knows exactly what. The "fixes" are not great either, suggesting turning off various protections.
Honestly, unless you really __want__ to do windows specific development on LibreOffice, I would suggest running Linux inside a VirtualBox VM on your Windows machine (or on another machine) and doing LibreOffice development there, where we are more likely to be able to help you get a working setup.
Sorry about this, Windows is just not a very robust development platform (despite having lots of nice tools available). It's just waaaaay too easy to end up with a broken build environment for reasons completely outside our control. _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
