Paolo Mantovani – PLIO’s founding member and known OpenOffice.org developer – developed BasicAddonBuilder, an OpenOffice.org extension that allows you to export a StarBasic library in the OpenOffice.org Extension format,
ready for deployment. BasicAddonBuilder does not require special skills or a deep knowledge of extensions specifications.
A wizard-style dialog will guide you through the process, allowing you to define in a graphical way all menu and toolbars that will be added to the OpenOffice.org user interface in order to launch macros from your StarBasic library.
Paolo talking about his extension said:
OpenOffice.org’s extensions are a great selling point, since they allow developers to create new functionalities and customizations, a very important characteristic in typical enterprise environments.
