Automating OpenOffice using AODL

[rahateomkar]

I am trying to automate OpenOffice 4.0.1 using Microsoft .Net c# language. I want to copy the text from one input file and paste it into another. My input file may of Microsoft word or .odt file.
To do the same in c# language its getting tougher. There are methods available in

Code: Select all

 XAccessibleText

and

Code: Select all

XAccessibleEditableText

interface but I am not getting anything about how to implement those.
If someone has tried it then please share any small snippet with me.

The interfaces you list are intended for assistive technology. If I was trying to insert the entire contents of one document in another, I would use the insertDocumentFromURL() method. In OO Basic the code looks like

Code: Select all

oText = ThisComponent.getText()
oCurs = oText.createTextCursor()
oCurs.gotoEnd(False)
oCurs.insertDocumentFromURL("file:///c:/users/fjcc/Desktop/Insert.odt", Array())

The C# code recorded by MRI for doing the first steps of that is

Code: Select all

using System;
using unoidl.com.sun.star.text;
using unoidl.com.sun.star.uno;

public class Snippet {
public void snippet(XComponentContext xContext, object oInitialTarget)
{
	XTextDocument xTextDocument = (XTextDocument) oInitialTarget;
	XText xText = xTextDocument.getText();
	
	XSimpleText xSimpleText = (XSimpleText) xText;
	XTextCursor xTextCursor = xSimpleText.createTextCursor();
	
	xTextCursor.gotoEnd(false);
	
}

I don't know anything about C#, so perhaps that isn't useful.
The documentation on insertDocuemntFromURL() is here.
