Description netforce1 2006-09-14 13:48:42 UTC

The java.rmi.server.codebase property for java plugins is set to
vnd.sun.star.expand:$UNO_USER_PACKAGES_CACHE/path_to_jar. This causes problems
when you try to send an object from the plugin to an rmi server (other then
openoffice). The rmi server cannot deserialize the object, because it cannot
resolve the codebase. 

See the following stacktrace:
Caused by: java.rmi.UnmarshalException: error unmarshalling arguments; nested

KR->SB: Can you help?

Comment 2 Stephan Bergmann 2006-09-28 14:37:43 UTC

@netforce1:  Sorry, I do not understand your description.

1  What exactly do you mean with "java plugins"?

2  I assume with "java.rmi.server.codebase" property you mean some
java.lang.System.getProperties()-style property of some JVM.  What JVM are we
talking about (the JVM started within OOo, the JVM of some stand alone Java
application, etc.)?

3  Do you have an idea what code sets the property to that value?

Comment 3 netforce1 2006-09-29 08:36:43 UTC

1  We have an UNO package with some java macros, I did not exactly now how to
describe that, so I called it java plugins. 

2  It is indeed a system property, it is set in the JVM in which the java macros
run. 

3  I don't know, I haven't seen much of the OpenOffice.org code yet. Maybe the
code starts the JVM or the macros.

Comment 4 Stephan Bergmann 2006-10-02 09:55:59 UTC

I could not reproduce this.  In an OOo 2.0.3 using Sun Java 1.5.0_08, I did the
below to get a list of all Java properties, and "java.rmi.server.codebase" was
not among them.

With an empty Writer document, I created a BeanShell macro via "Tools - Macros -
Organize Macros - BeanShell...", created a new library and macro under "My
Macros", edited it by changing the single line

  xTextRange.setString( "Hello World (in BeanShell)" );

into the three lines

  s = new java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream();
  System.getProperties().list(new java.io.PrintStream(s));
  xTextRange.setString( s.toString() );

and then let it "Run".

@netforce1:  Do you have a more specific description how to *do* reproduce your
problem?

Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org".
