Hello all, I want to get the page count of the document in java.

Here is the way with XPageCursor, but it's limited, just suitable for the documents opened with Writer. The other files such as xls, it doesn't work.

Code:

private static short getPageCount(XComponent xComp) {
   XModel xModel = (XModel) UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XModel.class, xComp);
   XController xController = xModel.getCurrentController();
   XTextViewCursorSupplier xViewCursorSupplier = (XTextViewCursorSupplier) UnoRuntime
         .queryInterface(XTextViewCursorSupplier.class, xController);
   XPageCursor pageCursor = (XPageCursor) UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
         XPageCursor.class, xViewCursorSupplier.getViewCursor());
   pageCursor.jumpToLastPage();
   return pageCursor.getPage();
}

I searched and found I could get the page count with OOoBasic "ThisComponent.CurrentController.PageCount", so I used XScript to invoke it.

Code:

XScriptProviderSupplier xScriptPS = (XScriptProviderSupplier)UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XScriptProviderSupplier.class, xComp);
XScriptProvider xScriptProvider = xScriptPS.getScriptProvider();
XScript xScript = xScriptProvider.getScript("vnd.sun.star.script:Standard.Module1.ThisComponent.CurrentController.PageCount?language=Basic&location=application");

short[][] aOutParamIndex = new short[1][1];
Object[][] aOutParam = new Object[1][1];
xScript.invoke(null, aOutParamIndex, aOutParam);

The code will throw exception

Code:

Exception in thread "main" com.sun.star.script.provider.ScriptFrameworkErrorException: The following Basic script could not be found:
library: 'Standard'
module: 'Module1'
method: 'ThisComponent'
location: 'application'

So how to invoke this script ? Thanks

I wrote a OOoBasic macro

Code:

Sub PageCount
MsgBox ThisComponent.CurrentController.PageCount
End Sub

and found it also just work in Writer, but Calc

This property of com.sun.star.text.TextDocumentView is only valid for text documents. Not spreadsheets.
You can get the current controller of a text document and its PageCount property from Java, no need to call a macro.

Yes, thanks.
Exactly, I want to find a way to get a page count for files opened by Writer/Calc/Impress.
It seems it is impossible by now. Threre is several way to get the page count in Writer(PageCursor / PropertySet / DocumentStatistic / Macro), but all these ways do not apply at Calc and Impress. That is very strange, why not OO does not supply a same api to do something to the files, such as file statistics.
