Re: How to make my own UI visible_plugin application

hi,
.
how did you create the form???
assuming you have developed the the .xdl file for the form(dialog)..
in your dispatch method, you have to just use XDialogProvider,
like:
(assuming you have the Service Factory)
.
 XDialogProvider xDialogProvider =
mxServiceFactory.createInstance("com.sun.star.awt.DialogProvider2" );
 XDialog xDialog = xDialogProvider.createDialog("<path to the .xdl file>");
 xDialog.execute();
.
soooo.. for your dispatch:
it would be like:
.
public void dispatch( com.sun.star.util.URL aURL,
com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue[] aArguments )
{
if ( aURL.Protocol.compareTo("com.example.kbshortcutreminder:") == 0 )
{
if ( aURL.Path.compareTo("ShortcutReminder") == 0 )
{
   XDialogProvider xDialogProvider =
mxServiceFactory.createInstance("com.sun.star.awt.DialogProvider2" );
   XDialog xDialog = xDialogProvider.createDialog("<path to the .xdl
file>");
   xDialog.execute();

   return;
}
}
}
Path to the .xdl file can be specified as:
"vnd.sun.star.extension://your-extension-identifier/path" +
"/within/oxt/file/interface1.xdl"
   .
hope its what you are looking for.
.

kushal
