31.10.2005 AODL EmbeddedOpenOffice Winform UserControl
Inspired during a discussion in the OpenOffice forum ( http://www.oooforum.org) which is a really good place for getting help on OpenOffice. I started next to the AODL library development the development of OpenOffice Winform UserControl. It is is approximateley stable. After i used it within my one of my projects it will be published under LGPL, so that all developer can use it as they want. Now, you ask yourself, when he will release the control? Or? As soon as possible, i think in approximateley a week.

Here a little feature list:

  • Full implemented windows usercontrol, which can be added to your toolbox
  • Can be started with blank or load file (Calc, Impress and Writer) Draw can't be started (maybe a bug?) but you can start a writer instance and then Open a Draw Document or create new one
  • All OpenOffice Features are usable (Print, Save, PageView, PDF Export, ..)

First Screenshots: here

Of course the AODL Library development will still go on;)
