I’m trying to follow the info at https://github.com/LibreOffice/loeclipse/tree/master/core/doc/help/html/userdoc/javatuto to create a simple Java-based LibreOffice component in Eclipse. Unfortunately, creating a new project with the LOEclipse plugin results in an error and no skeletal implementation file.
For example, I try to create a new LibreOffice Extension project named MyExt. The result is a messagebox that says, ‘Could not find “/home/David/Projects/LibreOf…e/example/comp/MyExtImpl.java”. Please check the spelling and try again.’ No implementation source file is generated in the skeleton project. The Error Log includes the item “ERROR: No such file <file:///home/David/Projects/LibreOffice/MyExt/types.rdb>”.
If I manually introduce an implementation file and try to run the project, the result is a messagebox stating “Error launching configuration.” Error Log details state, “java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException: JAR creation failed” along with an exception stack trace.
Searching around, I’ve found no one else having a similar problem, so my guess is it’s something I’m doing. Any ideas where I’m going wrong?
