how to fix the size of Excel OLE object [message #444971] Fri, 22 October 2004 17:50

I am using the SWT OLE package to embed an Excel.Sheet. (See code below).

How do I make sure the OLE object fits inside its parent and remains at a
fixed size? By this, I mean I would like the object's behavior to be
similar to that if I would start MS Word and insert an Excel Sheet---the
sheet appears in the middle of the page with scrollbars, but does not
resize unless explicitly done so with the side handles.

If you run the example below, the Excel Sheet does not fit within the
Shell (you cannot see the vertical scrollbar), and has even stranger
behavior when the Display/Shell is resized.

===============================================
import org.eclipse.swt.*;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.*;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.FillLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.ole.win32.*;

public class Embed {

/**
* Comment for <code>serialVersionUID</code>
*/
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

public static void init(Shell shell) {

OleFrame frame = new OleFrame(shell, SWT.BORDER);

OleClientSite site;
try {

site = new OleClientSite(frame, SWT.NONE, "Excel.Sheet");

site.doVerb(OLE.OLEIVERB_UIACTIVATE);

} catch (org.eclipse.swt.SWTException e) {
String str = "Create OleClientSite Error" + e.toString();
System.out.println(str);
return;
}
}

public static void main (String [] args) {
Display display = new Display ();
Shell shell = new Shell (display);
shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());

Menu bar = new Menu (shell, SWT.BAR);
shell.setMenuBar (bar);

// create and activate the OLE object
init(shell);

shell.open ();
while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
if (!display.readAndDispatch ()) display.sleep ();
}
display.dispose ();
}
}
