macOS Start OpenOffice with java on Mac OSX 10.4

[tekikke]

hi,

i have a program who has to start Openoffice from java, and run a macro in openoffice. I have the java program who works on Linux.
But when i try to run it on Mac i get the following error:


Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: createJNI
at com.sun.star.lib.connections.pipe.PipeConnection.createJNI(Native Method)
at com.sun.star.lib.connections.pipe.PipeConnection.<init>(PipeConnection.java:137)
at com.sun.star.lib.connections.pipe.pipeConnector.connect(pipeConnector.java:145)

at com.sun.star.comp.helper.Bootstrap.bootstrap(Bootstrap.java:292)
at Runmacro.macro(Runmacro.java:95)


The line where i get this error on is the following:
94: com.sun.star.uno.XComponentContext xContext = null;
95: xContext = com.sun.star.comp.helper.Bootstrap.bootstrap();
96: xMCF = xContext.getServiceManager();

hopefully some of you can help me or give me a hint in witch direction i could search.

grtzzz

Can't help much, sorry! but maybe this is a start...

September 11th, 2006 at 10:39 am Hi Pieter-Jan, This error occurs when the bootstrap method calls “pipe( p.getInputStream(), System.out, “CO< ” );” which depends on platform specific libraries. These libraries can be made available by putting the directory containing the soffice(.exe) executable on the java.library.path variable. This can be done under Windows by including the directory holding the executable to the PATH variable. On Linux and Unix this directory should be added to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable for the user running the application. Please make sure this is documented when you want to distribute your application through Java Web Start else noone will be able to run your application! HTH, Wouter

i've also found that website, but i don't know how to do these things on mac.
in the article is only the description for linux and windows. maybe someone more information?

OpenOffice (rather than NeoOffice) doesn't get much love on the Mac, especially as you have to use X11.

hi,

The error is exactly the same when i make use of neooffice and de classes in it.
So it doesn't change if i do it with neooffice and make use of it jars.

maybe someone who has another idea of what it could be?

grtzzz
