Offer possibility to restart office after extensions installation
Last modified: 2007-05-11 07:45:19 UTC
After an extension has been installed it could be possible to restart the office, because you would like to add a classpath in java or the extension change the rdb database with new types, ... IMHO there could exist a new element in the description.xml file Element <restart-required> XPath: /description/restart-required/ Parent: description Child elements: none Attribute value:string ("yes","no","true",false") default is "no" So if this element exists in the description.xml like: <restart-required value="true"/> A window pops up after installation is done and says something like "Restart of office is required, or the currently installed extension doesn't work right." Nice to have: Offer a extra button in this windows, which stops/restarts the whole office also it's quickstarter.
The same functionality would come in handy for changing the GUI language in the "Options" dialog. We already have an implementation of a "restart" in the crash emergency save routine (ask AS). Perhaps we can borrow code from there.
