Creating a Dialog Handler

Next to assigning macros to events or creating event listeners, one can use dialog handlers, whose principle is to define UNO keywords, or methods, that are mapped to events to watch for. The event handler is responsible for executing methods using the vnd.sun.star.UNO:<method_name> protocol. Unlike listeners that require to define all supported methods, even if unused, dialog handlers require only two methods on top of intended control hook scripts.

Las ventajas de este método son:

This mechanism is illustrated herewith for Basic and Python languages using an imported copy of Access2Base dlgTrace dialog. Exception handling and localisation are omitted for clarity.

Asignación de métodos de Dialog

Exporte el cuadro de diálogo dlgTrace de Access2Base e impórtelo en la biblioteca de aplicación MyLib.

Inside the control properties pane of the Dialog Editor, use the Events tab to replace macro assignments by component assignments, and type in the intended method names:

Las acciones asignadas a los eventos deben mencionar el protocolo vnd.sun.star.UNO:.

Creating the handler

createDialogWithHandler method of com.sun.star.awt.DialogProvider2 service is used to set the dialog and its handler. The handler is responsible for implementing com.sun.star.awt.XDialogEventHandler interface.

warning

All component method names must be explicitly declared when using a dialog handler.


Con Python

En este ejemplo, el cuadro de diálogo se localiza en el equipo.

Como es esperable, la falta del método onOkHasFocus provoca una excepción.


tip

Refer to Python calls to LibreOffice Basic page for getBasicScript routine description and for details about cross-language scripting execution.

En este ejemplo el cuadro de diálogo se ha incrustado en un documento, pero también podría igualmente localizarse en el equipo.
