Exported Interfaces - Summary
::com::sun::star::container::XHierarchicalNameAccess

Interface to retrieve type descriptions. In addition to the semantics specified for the corresponding interface of the TypeDescriptionProvider service (which changed slightly for LibreOffice 4.1; see there), this interface allows to retrieve the following entities: (details)

::com::sun::star::container::XSet

You can manually add or remove a providers via this interface.

::com::sun::star::container::XHierarchicalNameAccess
Description
Interface to retrieve type descriptions. In addition to the semantics specified for the corresponding interface of the TypeDescriptionProvider service (which changed slightly for LibreOffice 4.1; see there), this interface allows to retrieve the following entities:
  • The simple types are accessible via "void", "boolean", "byte", "short", "unsigned short", "long", "unsigned long", "hyper", "unsigned hyper", "float", "double", "char", "string", "type", and "any".
  • Sequence types are accessible via "[]ComponentType"
  • Instantiated polymorphic struct types are accessible via "StructType<Parameter1,…,Parametern>".
  • Members of interface types are accessible via "InterfaceType::Member".

Even though the name of this interface suggests that the used type names are hierarchical, this doesn't need to be the case. (For example, consider the names of instantiated polymorphic struct types, like "Struct<long>".)
