What does cannot dump type com/star/uno/RuntimeException mean?
First, make sure that you followed the FAQ entry ‘How do I generate C++ type definitions?’. That means: you created a .idl file that “describes” or “defines” the component. You use the unoidl tool to compile the idl file. Run the cppumaker on the resulting .urd file. The cppumaker generates a C++ representation for idl types and it works on a type library which is generated by the unoidl. If you followed these steps and get the error: cppumaker ERROR: cannot dump type ‘com/star/uno/RuntimeException’, you must integrate your new type into the system type library because the type information is needed at runtime and also for generating the C++ code. For doing that, the easiest way is to merge your ‘XXX.urd’ files into the system type library. The system type library is called applicat.rdb and can be found in the program directory. To merge the type library, you must use the tool regmerge which you should find in the build environment. All type information in the applicat.rdb are saved un
