start (silently).

--- Comment #1 from Andre <aw...@googlemail.com> ---
This problem is caused by an uninitialized flag in Desktop::Main()
(desktop/source/app/app.cxx):
When the support for assistive devices is active then the access bridge is
initialized.  This sets a flag that defines what to do when the initialization
failed.  In that case the flag is not modified and, since it is not
initialized, contains a random value.  Therefore, sometimes OpenOffice just
shuts down.

OpenGrok tells me that there are two mode code snippets which call
<InitAccessBridge> and do not initialize the value of the 2nd parameter:
- in main/vcl/win/source/window/salframe.cxx, method <SalFrameWndProc(..)>
- in main/padmin/source/pamain.cxx, method <MyApp::Main()>

I forgot to mention one important detail.  The bug can only be observed when
there is NO screen reader installed.

@Regina: So far I only have seen code that would turn off the 'Support
assistive technology tools' flag.  That is done when a screen reader is
detected but for some reason the access bridge can not be initialized.

I had set "Tools > Options > OpenOffice->Accessibility > 'Support assistive
technology tools'" and I observe, that AOO starts but shuts down immediately in
many cases. So I thought, that I can solve the problem by clearing the options.
But after restart the option is checked again automatically. Do you see this
too? And if yes, does the fix solve this problem too?

Just for clarity, is this bug compatible with the description from Jacopo Deyla
to the dev list? He was testing accessibility in a snapshot and reported: "it
closes in the loading screen (after 1/3)".

I added the initialization in desktop and padmin but not in vcl.  We can do the
later on trunk.

--- Comment #15 from Steve Yin <st...@gmail.com> ---
@Andre: I found that the issue can be reproduced when no screen reader or other
AT tools running. That's to say the SPI_GETSCREENREADER is not set.

Created attachment 83052
  --> https://issues.apache.org/ooo/attachment.cgi?id=83052&action=edit
Initialize flag.

Initialize bQuitApp flag with sal_False, so that when the initialization of the
access bridge fails, OpenOffice does not shut down.
