This is already reported on
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127143

Unfortunately I cannot reproduce it, and there is no solution nor
workaround other than trying to start OpenOffice inside Terminal.app
with a particular module so that you avoid the Start Center, for
example, to open the word processor:

/Applications/OpenOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/swriter

This might not help at all, other users reported further crashes or
painting glitches.

Instead of sending the report to Apple, please copy the whole text on
the second CrashReport dialog [1] and paste it on TextEdit.app, then
save the file as a plain text document, and send it to my e-mail address

You need to download and set up the SDK, for C++ development. The API is
the same for all programming languages, you only need to translate the
Java examples to C++.

You can find some code in the SDK:
sdk/examples/DevelopersGuide/ProfUNO/CppBinding
sdk/examples/DevelopersGuide/ProfUNO/SimpleBootstrap_cpp
sdk/examples/cpp

You can also search some examples in the API mailing list:

It's better if you subscribe to that list, and ask your questions there

 The cure for a very great number of such problems is to delete

 differs slightly according to the operating system you are using, is
 discussed in this posting on the user Forum

This is tracked in this bug
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=121930

The advice should be: first, locate the user profile and then remove the
folders named uno_packages and extensions, this has been reported to
work in most cases, there is no need to delete the whole user profile.
If this does not work, then remove/rename the whole user profile.

You are in Windows 64 bit, OpenOffice is a 32 bit application and needs

 This method of selecting language sets the local character property.
 Remember that you may prefer to do this through character styles or
 paragraph styles.
 
 
 OK, just now, to test what you are telling me, I opened a new
 document and entered some text in Spanish (nothing else in the
 document) then I highlighted it, clicked on Tools - Language -
 Selection and the only two languages offered are English (which is
 checked I presume because English is set as the default language) and
 Catalan.  So I clicked on More, as you suggest, and I get a dialog
 box named character with tabs for Font, Font Effects, Position,
 Hyperlink and Background.
 
 That's probably all moot, because I just found a web page:
 https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Languagepack and it says: A
 Language pack is a type of add-on for OpenOffice.org to get more
 languages integrated without to install more than one Office set. It
 contains only files to display, e.g., menus and dialogs in a specific
 language incl. the spell checking libraries (since OOo 3.2). If
 available the help content is also translated.
 
 So evidently you are mistaken about the language packs not including
 the spell checking LIBRARIES (not dictionaries), and now I am back at
 square one.  I realize that Spanish and Catalan are very similar
 languages, but I don't have Catalan installed and I do have Spanish
 installed.

Language packs do not include dictionaries, only the full install sets
include them; this is a known issue tracked under
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124473

Dictionaries are extensions, so you have to search for a dictionary in
the extension's site: http://extensions.openoffice.org/

Concerning the list of languages offered on the Tools
- Language-For Selection|Paragraph|all text (you can access
a similar menu from the status bar control that displays the current
language), this list is built from a feature called language guessing,
and does not depend on the installed dictionaries. Language guessing
is just a guess, as its name says, so don't expect it to be 100%
reliable.

Concerning the Character dialog that you can open from the menu
Tools - Language - For Selection - More... (or from the context
menu: right-click on the selected text and select Character...), the
Language is an attribute of the Font, so you will find it on the
Font tab, in a list box. This location of the Language attribute is
rather misleading, ideally there should be a toolbar item to set the
language - something like
http://aoo-ui-extras.apache-extras.org.codespot.com/git.wiki/LanguageBox_dropdown.png

Also note the original suggestion made by Brian: instead of this way of
settings the language attribute (known as hard formatting), it is
better to use styles.

 It works nicely! Any reasons not to integrate it (as a preinstalled
 extension or directly as part of the source code, as you wish) directly in
 OpenOffice? License is OK and functionality is unobtrusive and useful.

Well, the code is a modified version of what I already committed on
devtools in order to make it production-ready (the code there was just
a draft to test the underlaying implementation). Preregistered
extensions are evil (they don't work on Linux, among other bugs), so
including code-extensions in the install set is a no-go.

On the other hand, implementing this in OpenOffice will require
a developer knowing Writer internal code, while doing it in an extension
you just need to know the client API; that's the fun in making
extensions.

 I got the Linux-64 version from the Extensions site and OpenOffice froze
 just after installing it (I generated dummy text and selected some, and it
 froze without showing the selected count). But after restarting OpenOffice
 everything worked correctly. If you wish I can do further tests, but
 probably it was just a coincidence.

This is a bug with the live deployment of extensions, it is broken
by design (Mozilla does it more cleaver, installing/removing addons
requires a restart); I assume it is already reported in bugzilla.

I could reproduce it. It is a regression introduced since the latest

  With this, I would have expected to be able to run the MemUsage.bsh
  script; however, when I tried, no LibraryTest was shown.
 
  Then, I looked in the download directory and found:
 
   
  /home/evansl/download/OpenOffice/r1372282/Apache_OpenOffice_incubating_3.4.1_Linux_x86-64_install-arc_en-US/openoffice.org3/.openoffice.org/3/user/Scripts
   
  Then, I copied the beanshell scripts from my:
~/.openoffice.org/3/user/Scripts
  to the one in the download directory, and now MemUsage.bsh is
  available for execution in a document.
 
  Is this the expected behaviour?  IOW, are the */user/Scripts expected
  to be stored in the application directory:
 
   
  /home/evansl/download/OpenOffice/r1372282/Apache_OpenOffice_incubating_3.4.1_Linux_x86-64_install-arc_en-US/


The explanation on this tutorial should use a placeholder:

UserInstallationDir/Scripts/beanshell|java|python


If you are using a standard OpenOffice installed in /opt/
UserInstallationDir is $HOME/.openoffice.org/version/user/

The self contained installation you downloaded to test, has the user
installation directory inside itself, as you already noticed.

  You can try with this unofficial tar:

 Does that unoffical tar require gnome?  I would think even unofficial

 still have the same or similar requirements.

They require gtk2, not gnome. What desktop environment do you have? You
don't need to install gnome, and sure you have gtk2 libraries already
installed ;)

 So:

Gnome is only a requirement for accessibility to work (via Orca), but
you can use OpenOffice in any desktop environment as long as you have
gtk2 libraries.

  What desktop environment do you have?
 My os is ubuntu 10.04 LTS.  However, it appears I've also
 got gnome because on my panel, when I select System,
 it shows an About Gnome item.  What's confusing is
 that synaptic shows gnome is not installed.

If you have the default Ubuntu installation, then you already have all
gtk2 libraries :)

  You
  don't need to install gnome, and sure you have gtk2 libraries already

 Yep, synaptic shows several packages installed with names
 starting with libgtk2, in particular it shows:
 
   libgtk2.0-dev

packages ending with *-dev are for development, you don't need them
unless you are planning to develop with that library.

Are you running the macro from Tools - Macros - Run Macro... / Tools

running the macro from the editor?

If from the editor, try putting debug(); at the top of the editor, to
see what's happening (I guess a null pointer exception), remove debug();
before storing the file.

This file as a macro that runs fine:

The ODS you attached on the other mail has code that work only with

xTextDoc = (XTextDocument)

xText = xTextDoc.getText();
xTextRange = xText.getEnd();

Unknown Source means sources were compiled without -g, hard to guess

The JARs in the folder classes should be placed in

If you know how to attach a debugger, you can debug the problem (the
sources for BeanShell and the ScriptingFramework are also included).

 AOO is the ONLY piece of my software that requires  JRE 6.

OpenOffice does not require JRE 6, it works fine with JRE 7 on Windows.
In case it does not work for you, it's due to a bug with Java 7 that
requires you to install extra software, as documented in the Release
Notes:
http://www.openoffice.org/development/releases/3.4.1.html#AOO3.4.1ReleaseNotes-KnownIssues

Apache OpenOffice 3.4.0 and 3.4.1 support Java 7, which is the
recommended configuration; but (especially on 64-bit Windows) you might
receive warnings about the Java version being defective. In that case,
download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable
Package.
