SYNOPSIS

# Launch OpenOffice.org as a server
$ ooffice \
    "-accept=socket,host=localhost,port=8100;urp;StarOffice.ServiceManager"

use OpenOffice::UNO;

# connect to the OpenOffice.org server
$uno = OpenOffice::UNO->new;
$cxt = $uno->createInitialComponentContext;
$sm  = $cxt->getServiceManager;
$resolver = $sm->createInstanceWithContext
                ("com.sun.star.bridge.UnoUrlResolver", $cxt);
$rsm = $resolver->resolve
    ("uno:socket,host=localhost,port=8100;urp;StarOffice.ServiceManager");

# get an instance of the Desktop service
$rc = $rsm->getPropertyValue("DefaultContext");
$desktop = $rsm->createInstanceWithContext("com.sun.star.frame.Desktop", $rc);

# create a name/value pair to be used in opening the document
$pv = $uno->createIdlStruct("com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue");
$pv->Name("Hidden");
$pv->Value(OpenOffice::UNO::Boolean->new(0));

# open a document
$sdoc = $desktop->loadComponentFromURL("file:///home/jrandom/test1.sxw",
                                       "_blank", 0, [$pv]);

# close the document
$sdoc->dispose();

DESCRIPTION

This is a straight bridge to the OpenOffice.org API, so the definitve reference is in the OpenOffice.org SDK.
