It you use the MS Visual Studio .NET compiler everything should work +fine with the SDK. If you use an older MS compiler please edit the Makefile and +uncomment or remove the line 'CL_NEW_LIB=atls.lib'. + + 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. It can be activated with an <OBJECT> tag from +a html-page to embed a document. Without any parameters 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 - if it is set to "true" the document will be opened readonly, + otherwise the document will be opened for editing. + +The control can be extended easily, for example it can be changed +to allow scripting to load different documents. + +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". + +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 + + |
