Support for starting OOo as a different user #59

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
It should be possible to start the OOo process as a different user with
e.g. sudo on Linux.

This would allow setting user-specific limits for OOo memory usage, network
access etc, provided that the system has been configured appropriately.

Done in r153

E.g. to start the process as user 'openoffice':

  new DefaultOfficeManagerConfiguration()
    ...
    .setRunAsArgs("sudo", "-u", "openoffice")
    ...
    .buildOfficeManager();

But that's only part of the story; the system needs to be configured to allow 
the
user to sudo to 'openoffice', the dir where documents are read and written must 
be
shared between both users, etc.
