RE: [libreoffice-accessibility] Libo 4.0.5 and Accessibility/Follow-up

Hi.
I just reinstalled Java from the official installer via the java.com Web site.  Access Bridge lists 
itself as being enabled in the ease of access section, and yet Libo 4.0.5 did not have any 
accessibility using the latest release candidate of NVDA.
I went to the Install Java Access Bridge option from the window-eyes program group and, after 
running their JAB installer, found that accessibility was restored.
I contacted GW Micro to ask if their installer is doing anything differently, and they told me that 
it may be installing it in some additional folders beyond what the Java installer is doing.  Can 
anybody confirm this?  In other words, does installing Java via the java.com installer allow Libo 
to work with NVDA?  Perhaps the Libreoffice developers could find out what GW Micro's installer is 
doing and replicate this behavior when the user enables the assistive technology support checkbox.

Just a guess, Ninite might have installed the 64-bit version of java. LibreOffice still need the 
32-bit version.

        I have fixed the accessibility problems I was experiencing after installing Java via the 
Ninite installer.
        The Window-eyes screen reader includes a utility which allows the user to install the Java 
Access Bridge.  When I ran their utility and restarted my PC, accessibility returned to 
Libreoffice.  I'm not sure what Ninite is doing which is different from GW Micro's Access Bridge 
installer, but using their installer fixed my problems.  Does anyone know why this is?
