openoffice Complex toolbar in java

Question

is there any example on the web on how to build openoffice complex toolbar in Java? I found examples in C++ but no in Java : http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Framework/Article/Generic_UNO_Interfaces_for_complex_toolbar_controls

i need an article or tutorial on how to build and OO addon that uses a complex tool bar in java

i found this article http://java.dzone.com/news/lets-extend-openofficeorg-java#comment-53245 which implements a java PopupMenuController. i tried to do same process but using a XToolbarController instead of PopupMenuController. however i could'nt get my controller addon to work. below are my controller.xcu and controller class. can you tell what i am doing wrong? thanks.

my Controller.xcu :

my toolbar controller class :

the solution is to use an Addons.xcu file as bellow. the Addons.xcu should have a property "URL" to reference the "Command" property in Controller.xcu.

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<oor:component-data xmlns:oor="http://openoffice.org/2001/registry" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" oor:name="Addons" oor:package="org.openoffice.Office">
<node oor:name="AddonUI">
    <node oor:name="OfficeToolBar">
        <node oor:name="com.example.toolbar.ToolbarAddOn" oor:op="replace">
            <node oor:name="a1_0" oor:op="replace">
                <prop oor:name="URL">

                </prop>
                <prop oor:name="Title">
                    <value>Text</value>
                </prop>
                <prop oor:name="Context" oor:type="xs:string">
                    <value></value>
                </prop>
            </node>

Not an article, but this guys seems to have figured it out: http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=85610

i saw this thread but it is not very helpful. he is doing it in another way. i am interested into doing it for ToolbarController like it was done for PopupMenuController at java.dzone.com/news/… – Jahdal

i doubt it has to do with the controller.xcu . what to put for the "Command" element? <prop oor:name="Command"> <value>com.example.toolbar:Toolbar</value> </prop> – Jahdal
