EuroOffice Extension Creator screencast
This developer screencast shows how to use the open-source EOEC toolkit to create an OpenOffice.org extension very easily. We start from scratch and get a distributable OXT file in 20 minutes.
EuroOffice Extension Creator is a Python toolkit for creating OpenOffice.org extensions.
The project is hosted on Launchpad at https://launchpad.net/eoec.
MultiRacio is the primary developer and we are hosting its documentation at http://www.multiracio.com/eoec/.
This screencast walks you through creating an extension that adds a menu item that displays a dialog box which allows you to create a star in OpenOffice.org Draw documents. This example is also described in writing at http://www.multiracio.com/eoec/usage.html#an-example-star-maker and is included in the source code too. Release versions of EOEC also include it as an OXT file so it is easy to try (but these are release packs so not fit for run-time development).
