Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 63551
Office must be restarted to access new service: pkgchk
Last modified: 2008-11-07 12:15:27 UTC
- Starts office - Include a new module with package manager - Instantiate the new service -> error message from uno.exe After a restart the service can be instantiated.
pkgchk is deprecated. Please try unopkg, it should work generally. I have tested and used this feature often. But it maybe won't work if your package or parts of your package linked to VCL or some other private library (not published UNO/SDK library) from the program directory. Can you give me a more details please.
Ocke, obviously you component (indirectly) relies on the host process being soffice.exe. I doubt that you are facing link dependency problems to office (non-SDK) libraries, because then the component won't be registrable at all. uno.exe is in program directory and all (office) libraries are found (besides the executable). Maybe an uninitialized VCL or similar is the problem...
My component implements a model-controller-view structure which depends on vcl.
We need a workaround for this specific problem and it needs further investigation

adapt target
.
Since the problem is that the extensions links against VCL I do not see this as problem of the extension manager. We will probably add a flag in the description.xml of an extension which indicates that a restart is necessary to make the extension work.
-Wait for further input to make decision.
A new element in the description.xml could indicate that the extension is not be suitable for lifedeployment. Another flag could indicate that life-deployment is not allowed, then the new services from the extension are only available after restarting. It is also imaginable to directly register and run the new service in the office process and not using uno.exe in a separate process. With regard to the effort we should be aware the action we may take here is a hack for services which are not 100 % UNO conform!
Retargeted to 2.4

The report designer still does not work with life deployment althought dependencies to VCL etc. have been removed. Investigate fro 2.3. see CWS oj14
The Report Designer iTeam decided that this issue is a show stopper for the release of the report designer. Targeting to 2.3, thus.
Restart of the office is not more needed any more. The report designer can be executed right after installation of the extension.
Please verify this one. Thanks.
verified in CWS oj14 version 0.4.0
