copied!<p>In [1]: import uno In [2]: local = uno.getComponentContext() In [3]: resolver = local.ServiceManager.createInstanceWithContext("com.sun.star.bridge.UnoUrlResolver", local)</p> <p>OOP gone wrong, imho. i know its OT, but i tried getting uno to work before, and gave up. this is pure Steve Yegge Prose (read up on <a href="http://steve-yegge.blogspot.com/2006/03/execution-in-kingdom-of-nouns.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://steve-yegge.blogspot.com/2006/03/execution-in-kingdom-of-nouns.html</a>).</p> <p>when you translate those lines into a more speakable form, they come out roughly as:</p> <p>"Let 'local' be the result of calling method 'get component context' of 'uno'. Let the 'service manager' be the attribute 'service manager' of 'local'. Let 'resolver' be the result of calling the 'service manager' method 'create instance with context', using arguments 'com sun star bridge uno url resolver' and 'local'."</p> <p>omg. no surprise something is wrong with a program that is so atrociously over-specific, convoluted, and self-referential while being not self-aware... you call a sub-method of 'local' and that sub-method has to be told what 'local' means? say what? hats off to the fearless developers who can cut through this. happy debugging.</p> <h2>ADDED:</h2> <p>thx for comment and points.</p> <p>the pyuno problem i cannot do anything about in fact, but i encourage to persue a patient trytrytry approach with a clear deadline. </p> <p>i also suggest to file an outright B.U.G. with the pyuno people (if they are in fact active—i got the impression that this was a rather silent project) because of the nonsense error message: the method in question appears to request one string argument, and it gets one, and it complains it did. this is so not helpful to the degree it becomes reasonable to declare a code fault. </p> <p>in this kind of situation i often look into the sources. but you already did that, right?</p> <p>i hate people to ask back ‘why do you want to do this?’ when i ask for help. however, sometimes someone (maybe you) does come up with another workable path in the process, one that does not include a solution to the particular problem, but helps to solve the superordinate one. so, if i may ask: what is the big picture?</p>
