OpenOffice based extension does not load up in LibreOffice

Post by pknerd »

Hi

I had assumption that plugin I made for OO4.x will work on LibreOffice too. It does install but it does not show on Document. Is there any difference of Addon.xcu file between OO and Libre?

Toolbar configuration (Addon.xcu file) is now incompatible between Apache OpenOffice 4.0 and LibreOffice.

LibreOffice is a fork of OpenOffice.org.
Apache OpenOffice is an evolution from OpenOffice.org.

These are two different projects with a same origin and different evolutions.
