Hi Regina, I followed those guides too but the sentence "The OpenOffice.org Scripting module has been tested with NetBeans 3.4." got me thinking that it may not be wise to use something that's "apparently" not updated (I have netbeans 7.3). I'm not saying it's outdated so I may give it a try tomorrow. Anyway, I then found another guide and I believe it explains the netbeans part a little more deeply and doesn't really require a module (the only thing I have to do manually is prepare the xml descriptor and copy the jar files to the LO script dir): http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Scripting_in_Java_with_NetBeans_IDE The part that I was doing wrong was related to point "10" in that guide. I wasn't placing my classes within "default package". Surely I read other articles here and there but with these two it should be enough.

Re: [libreoffice-users] java macro
Hi :) Regina know a lot more about all this so hopefully her answer will fix it. There are a couple of places to get written documentation but probably not as many as we would like. This list is often quite a good place to get single issue answers but for a broader perspective Chapter 13 of the "Getting Started Guide" might help a bit. I think Andrew Pitonyak wrote it and it's free https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications#Getting_Started_with_LibreOffice but the best place "manual" is Andrew Pitonyaks' book at the bottom of the 3rd party section for programmers https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Other_Documentation_and_Resources#Programmers Good luck with this!

Re: [libreoffice-users] java macro
Hi Tom, I just need to get the job done. Right now, I can use whatever language, just as long as it's supported within LO. The problem with LO and OOo is that it "apparently" supports X programming language (such as Java) but there's barely enough documentation on how to "bind it" to the application. For instance, I followed a guide to run Java macros in LO but they simply don't show up in LO/"run macros". That's beyond the scope of programming per-se. It's more of how LO deals with macros. Anyway, maybe I'll have better luck with Python (as far as its "integration" with LO is concerned).

Re: [libreoffice-users] java macro
Tom & Vieri, Let's not get the Java browser plugin and the Java programming language confused... Java is an excellent programming language and in no way can be considered any less solid than C++. In fact, in many ways it is more secure and more reliable than code written in C++. What people are uninstalling/disabling (even me) is the Java browser plugin, not the JRE/JDK. The plugin has indeed had many security issues, and with Flash and HTML5 very few people are using Java applets in their websites anymore. So... Java plugin = bad. Java programming language = excellent. Now that that's settled, C++ is a language that every programmer should at least be familiar with. Whatever language you choose as a primary programming language is determined by a variety of factors, but as a general rule you'll be more productive in Java than C++. Python is also an excellent programming language, but I have too little experience with it to comment any further than that. -Bill On 5/9/2013 5:25 AM, Tom Davies wrote: Hi :) Errr, now that you have learned about programming in a general way and looking to consolidate details would it be a good time to learn something more solid?
