 |
|
Hi,
I have used the following method to load a graphic to xGraphic variable. But the method always returns None.
| Code: |
def __getGraphic(self, sImageUrl):
"""
Arguments:
- `sImageUrl`:String
"""
xGraphic=None
#create a GraphicProvider at the global service manager...
oGraphicProvider = self.xMultiComponentFactory.createInstanceWithContext(
"com.sun.star.graphic.GraphicProvider", self.m_xContext)
aPropertyValue=PropertyValue()
aPropertyValue.Name = "URL"
aPropertyValue.Value = sImageUrl
aPropertyValues=(aPropertyValue,)
xGraphic=oGraphicProvider.queryGraphic(aPropertyValues)
return xGraphic
|
The value of sImageUrl is set to /home/ishan/.libreoffice/3/user/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages/luikzuk9.tmp_/out.oxt/images/information.png. I verified that information.png exists in that directory.
Any idea..?

I was able to solve the problem. It seems that giving the file system path does not work here.
I had to replace the path(which was /home/ishan/.libreoffice/3/user/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages/luikzuk9.tmp_/out.oxt/images/information.png ) with the following .
vnd.sun.star.extension://org.creativecommons.openoffice.CcOOoAddin/images/information.png
where org.creativecommons.openoffice.CcOOoAddin is the extension id.
Hope this helps someone  . |

UNO related function uses UCB (Universal Content Broker) mechanism to load something from somewhere. This is work like Virtual File System.
UCB is based on URI specification, so all provider (provides contents for a URI bounds to specific protocol) must use it. Individual content provider is an UNO component that is pluggable and listed under org.openoffice.ucb.Configuration/ContentProviders configuration with their service name and processed protocol by each provider. |
