Hi Michael, I tried your extension suggestion to convert examples/java/SpreadSheet/CalcAddins.java to C++. I am having problem installing my extension using unpkg. Error : The extension "my simple extension" does not work on this computer. I tried various values in META-INF/manifest.xml : platform=linux_x86_64 and platform=all but I get the same error.
I probably did something wrong transporting the xml files or oxt files from the example. The original example in java works for me. Would you happen to have expertise in this area and time to help me out ? I also came across the following link which states that regmerge is legacy. However, the CalcAddIn was using it, so I went with it too. http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/WritingUNO/Deployment_Options_for_Components If that is the not the right way forward, please point me in the right direction.

C++ UNO components that are instantiated in-process currently do not go through a bridge when interacting with the LO API (although there have been varying opinions about changing that, since it makes maintaining backward compatibility more difficult): for such components, calling a LO API method (or being called from LO itself) is just a C++ virtual function call. the best documented way to get this performance benefit is to implement your client code as an extension. http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/Extensions/Extensions there may also be a way to get there with less efforts, there are some variables to add additional service rdbs to the soffice process (URE_MORE_SERVICES/URE_MORE_TYPES) but i don't have any experience with them; probably there is some way to implement what you want to do as a service and then start it from inside soffice, if all else fails via a trivial BASIC macro :)
