Description bmarcelly 2011-04-08 12:46:39 UTC

Users often request to find by program the list of available printers. This is possible with interface com.sun.star.awt.XPrinterServer supported by service com.sun.star.awt.PrinterServer.
See ML thread http://www.mail-archive.com/dev%40api.openoffice.org/msg11036.html which led to Issue 117765.

Problem is that the service com.sun.star.awt.PrinterServer is not documented in the IDL of the SDK.

Comment 1 Frank Schönheit 2011-04-08 13:06:45 UTC

fs->pl: Do you know this service, and would be able to document it?

Comment 2 philipp.lohmann 2011-04-08 13:08:47 UTC

no, I think that is part of cd's domain

Comment 3 carsten.driesner 2011-04-08 14:15:03 UTC

cd: Take over issue. This service should be document especially after FS added support for Basic.

Comment 4 Oliver Brinzing 2011-04-10 14:06:05 UTC

Comment 5 Oliver-Rainer Wittmann 2012-06-13 12:23:29 UTC

getting rid of value "enhancement" for field "severity".
For enhancement the field "issue type" shall be used.

Comment 6 SVN Robot 2012-10-06 23:17:46 UTC

"arielch" committed SVN revision 1395187 into trunk:
#i117769# - Document service com.sun.star.awt.PrinterServer

Comment 7 Ariel Constenla-Haile 2012-10-06 23:19:33 UTC

Fixed on trunk.
Well... I just copied the description from XPrinterServer.
The service is a new style service with a service constructor:

Sub Main
Dim oPrinterServer as Object
oPrinterServer = com.sun.star.awt.PrinterServer.create()
End Sub
