What is wrong with XChartTypeTemplate???
Import is failing.

I am trying to import XChartTypeTemplate in LibreOffice 7.4 on Ubuntu 22.04.

I have both snap LibreOffice 7.4 and Regular Installed LibreOffice 7.4 and both version report this same import error.

Here is a API link to XChartTypeTemplate

    return _builtin_import(name, *optargs, **kwargs)

other imports seem to be working fine.

No Errors.

>>> from com.sun.star.chart2 import XChartType

I download an AppImage of LibreOffice 7.3.
Tried the import.

>>> from com.sun.star.chart2 import XChartTypeTemplate
>>>

No Errors.
Why not working in LO 7.4?

#3

Actually no clue, but I’ve read some questions on incomplete Setups on linux recently (not only the usual problems with base/java) like Latest Update has broken Libre Draw
.
I’d suggest to report at bugzilla and ubuntu, and stay at 7.3 for the moment.
.
Other possibility would by to try the install directly from tdf, if that fixes your problem…

#4

After importing uno, I can also import XChartType from com.sun.star.chart2

#5

as the traceback states, uno is imported before, and the “uno-import-hook” is already invoked!

Maybe related to the patch for this bug… but no! I have added the patch from there to uno.py and it works with:

from com.sun.star.chart2 import XChartTypeTemplate

with me LO7.0.4.2 from debian

#6

I just wanted to confirm.

Same error on LIbreOffice 7.4.2.3 AppImage

I will check windows shortly.

Hmm … Windows LO 7.4.0.3 imports fine.

I have a little more testing to do but I think a bug report is in order.

Edit:

Opps - I tested for the wrong interface on this Windows test. Should have been XChartTypeTemplate and not XChartType

Test is also failing on Windows 10, LO 7.4

Upgraded to LO 7.4.2.3 on Windows 10 and it also work fine.

Edit

Actually test is Failing. See above

#9

can you run a diff on uno.py from windows and LIbreOffice 7.4.2.3 AppImage and|or from the Ubuntu?

#10

Looks like Diff will not be helpful. I made a mistake when I said it was working in Windows. See above Edits.

#11

I went into debugger and tried tried directly from pyuno ( Windows 10 )

>>> pyuno.getClass("com.sun.star.chart2.XChartTypeTemplate")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Program Files\LibreOffice\program\uno.py", line 381, in _uno_import
    d[class_name] = pyuno.getClass(name + "." + class_name)
uno.com.sun.star.uno.RuntimeException: pyuno.getClass: uno exception com.sun.star.chart2.XChartTypeTemplate is unknown

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
uno.com.sun.star.uno.RuntimeException: pyuno.getClass: uno exception com.sun.star.chart2.XChartTypeTemplate is unknown

However this worked

>>> pyuno.getClass("com.sun.star.chart2.XChartDocument")
<class 'uno.com.sun.star.chart2.XChartDocument'>

So I am guessing this is not a uno.py issue.

#12

I removed LO 7.4 from my Windows 10 and installed LO 7.3

With this older version I was able to get everthing working.

Here is a demonstration. The demo is part of my OOO Development Tools project.

I put some notes in Chart2.set_template() method.

Tomorrow I will see about posting a bug report for this.

#13

New bug report for this issue.

Bug 151846

Turns out there are several missing imports in the chart2 namespaces.

  • com.sun.star.chart2.InterpretedData
  • com.sun.star.chart2.XChartTypeTemplate
  • com.sun.star.chart2.XDataInterpreter
  • com.sun.star.chart2.XTransformation
