Description Ariel Constenla-Haile 2013-09-18 14:08:55 UTC 
- Set up the SDK environment
- Build the example in $OO_SDK_HOME/examples/DevelopersGuide/ProfUNO/SimpleBootstrap_cpp
- Try to execute the example by double-clicking the executable, or from a command prompt without the SDK enviroment

Bug: the client application cannot be executed, due to missing cppuhelper3MSC.dll

Looks like the unoapploader.exe is setting bad the PATH environment variable (main/odk/source/unoapploader/win/unoapploader.c)

Expanding the variable to include the AOO program folder, allows to run the client application:

set "PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenOffice 4\program;%PATH%"
C:\OpenOffice_4.0_SDK\WINexample.out\bin\SimpleBootstrap.exe

I will take a look in it, maybe I have overseen something or my test was incomplete.
Comment 2 jsc 2013-09-20 08:01:29 UTC 
approve showstopper request
Comment 3 jsc 2013-09-20 08:22:33 UTC 
I removed the unoinfo call for Windows completely because it makes problems and is not necessary. We can use the install path directly.   
I will do more cleanup work for 4.1
