Re: Need Guidance on bug fdo#37222

Hi,

system("xdg-open abc.pdf"); is not good enough - this won't work on OSX or
Windows.

You have to use XSystemShellExecute:
Reference<XSystemShellExecute>
xSystemShellExecute(SystemShellExecute::create(
::comphelper::getProcessComponentContext() ) );
xSystemShellExecute->execute( aFileName, OUString(),
SystemShellExecuteFlags::URIS_ONLY );

see svx/source/core/extedit.cxx method ExternalToolEdit::threadWorker as an
example where it is used.

As for path and filename in PDFExport::Export you get "rFile" as parameter
- this is the location where the file will be written to.

Regards, Tomaž
