Hossein ea5641baee Updated README.md files to represent current code / use Markdown format
Previously, all of the README files have been renamed to README.md
and now, the contents of these files were changed to use Markdown
format. Other than format inconsistency, some README.md files lacked
information about modules, or were out of date. By using LibreOffice
/ OpenOffice wiki and other documentation websites, these files were
updated. Now every README.md file has a title, and some description.
The top-level README.md file is changed to add links to the modules.
The result of processing the Markdown format README.md files can be
seen at: https://docs.libreoffice.org/

Python UNO Bindings

UNO bindings for the Python programming language.

To have much joy debugging Python extensions you need to:

  • a) edit pythonloader.py in your install setting DEBUG=1 at the top
  • b) touch pyuno/source/module/pyuno_runtime.cxx and make debug=true in pyuno

Then you'll start to see your exceptions on the console instead of them getting lost at the UNO interface.

Python also comes with a gdb script libpython$(PYTHON_VERSION_MAJOR).$(PYTHON_VERSION_MINOR)m.so.1.0-gdb.py that is copied to instdir and will be auto-loaded by gdb; it provides commands like py-bt to get a Python-level backtrace, and py-print to print Python variables.

Another way to debug Python code is to use pdb: edit some initialization function to insert import pdb; pdb.set_trace() (somewhere so that it is executed early), then run soffice from a terminal and a command-line Python debugger will appear where you can set Python-level breakpoints.
