Missing code download, referred to in the SDK Documentation ( directory "office" and "Utils")

Hello all,
In “LibreOffice SDK Guide: Chapter 3. Examining” the author refers to a “Info” class, which is used for examining properties of LO-objects. That sounded promising to me…

In the first paragraph it further says:

“This [examining] can be done by calling functions in my Utils class…”

And in “LibreOffice SDK Guide: Chapter 2. Starting and Stopping” you can read:

All the examples come from the office directory in the code download associated with this book, and make liberal use of the classes in the Utils directory.

So I tried to find this “Utils” folder and its classes, but couldn’t find it yet.
I looked in the installation of LibreOffice and the SDK, searched several examples folders - without success.
I didn’t neither find a folder “office” nor “Utils”.

Could you give me a hint where to search this folders and classes?

Thanks for you effort - ostijo

Thank you very much. This explains, why the referred code could not be found. Maybe in a future version of the SDK Guide there should be a footnote, where to find this useful code.

Thanks again - ostijo

yep.
seems @hossein sort of maintains the wikipage,
not sure if the original author is the same @flywire …
would be nice to merge efforts :innocent:

GitHub · Where software is built

I have added the link to the original code in the Wiki:

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/SDKGuide#Authors

You may also find it easier in my own Github mirror. I’ve added lib/download.sh, so that you can download the required files and libraries.

Thank you, hossein.
I noticed you reactivated the link to “https://fivedots.coe.psu.ac.th/~ad/jlop/code” with the remark “Note that website is back online.”. I still get a timeout when I connect to this site.
Maybe it would be better to put an additional link to your github-project (GitHub - hosseinn/jlop-code: Source code for JLOP book)?
Thanks again for your effort!
