Been there, done that.....

I noticed just as I was hitting send, or I would have redirected back to the list so that others could see the conversation.

Thank you, I'll have a look at it.
Also sorry for accidentally mailing you directly, instead of the list.


Kind regards

You can enumerate those with:

theTypeDescriptionManager



There is a method EnumerateTypesTest. Notice that there is a typeArray. I have note tested this, but, I could likely use the following two types



com.sun.star.uno.TypeClass.CONSTANT, _

com.sun.star.uno.TypeClass.CONSTANTS



And enumerate the constant types and print them. If I were industrious, I would dump them into a Calc document. I can think of lots of things that I
could do.



I have a method in the UNO module called EnumerateEnumeratsions, which,
given a name, will print the names and associated values.

Thanks.

I downloaded your OOME_4_0 document and I found it there. I was kind of hoping LibreOffice/Apache OpenOffice had its own constants so compatibility
mode hasn't to be used, but not much to do about that, I guess.
I already use a couple of constants when working with spreadsheets, for instance com.sun.star.sheet.CellFlags.VALUE and the others, but I haven't
seen a list of all of those.

Thanks for replying.


Kind regards

I have not looked at the predefined constants in a while, and I do not remember how I got my list, but it was probably by reading the code.

WARNING: I am about to tell you to download a document containing macros. The document looks just fine if you tell it to disable macros, but, it is a document about macro programming and almost every one of those macros is contained in libraries in the document. So, feel free to not enable them, but you will not be able to click on the buttons in the document to test
run the contained macros.

Navigate here:
http://www.pitonyak.org/oo.php

Download OpenOffice.org Macros Explained V4 (or just click on this link)

http://www.pitonyak.org/OOME_4_0.odt


Open the document and search for the text "vbNewLine". This should land you in table 10 Visual Basic-compatible string constants. This table lists 9 of this type of constant, but, they are only available if you enable "compatibility mode" using "Option Compatible" in the module, or, by calling CompatibilityMode(True) in your code before you use these specific
constants.

And no, I do not have an exhaustive list of defined constants. The
constants defined by the UNO object model, you can obtain using a macro, but I do not think that it is directly related to your question so I will not spend time finding the code that does that; but it is in the document
linked above.

And yes, Pi is a defined constant in LO Basic.

Hope this helped at least a little.

Hi!

I have done some searching and finally I found this at

https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/BASIC_Guide/Constants:

”OpenOffice.org Basic predefines several constants. Among the most useful
are:

   - True and False, for Boolean assignment statements
   - PI as a type Double numeric value”

I assume this is true for LibreOffice as well, but I can't find the rest
of
the ”several constants”.

At work a use Excel (I don't really want to and it's full of bugs, but at least I get paid…) and I wrote some macros in VBA. VBA has a lot of predefined constants, for instance vbNewLine and a lot more, and I'm now trying to find out what constants are available in LibreOffice Basic,
since
LibreOffice is what I use exclusively at home, so I don't have to
reinvent
the wheel.

So a link to a list of ALL predefined Basic constants would be very
appreciated.

Kind regards
