| Description. |
| |
| The StarOffice ActiveX control shows an example of access to UNO through COM technology. |
| It requires a properly installed StarOffice version 6.0/6.1 or OpenOffice 1.0. |
| This is a Lite ActiveX control so it can be used only in containers that |
| allows to use such controls. |
| |
| Pressing to any link to staroffice document should activate the control. |
| So the document will be opened in ReadOnly mode. |
| |
| Also it can be activated with an <OBJECT> tag from a html-page. |
| Without any parameters for an object tag a new writer document will be |
| opened for editing. Possible parameters are |
| src - full URL to the file that should be edited/viewed; |
| it can contain "private:factory/..." URLs to open new documents |
| for edit, for example "private:factory/swriter" |
| readonly - the default value is "true", in case it is set to any other |
| value the document is opened for editing |
| |
| As any ActiveX control this one should be registered. |
| To let MSIE register it itself the "CODEBASE" parameter |
| for the "OBJECT" tag should be specified |
| with an URL to the library "so_activex.dll". |
| The example of registration with "OBJECT" tag is in example.html. |
| |
| Also it can be done using regsvr32 application. |
| To do it please write |
| <Path to Windows installation>\System32\regsvr32 so_activex.dll |
| |
| To unregister the control please use /u option: |
| <Path to Windows installation>\system32\regsvr32 so_activex.dll /u |
