Description SATYA SRINIVAS K 2025-06-27 10:46:02 UTC
Description:
When I create the component context like below
 Reference< XComponentContext > xContext(::cppu::bootstrap());
The soffice is running and I am opening some large file or corrupted file which eventually hang the soffice or takes too much of time to process it,
In that case I need to wait some time and kill the soffice if the work is not completed in the defined time.

The problem is: I am running multiple instances of my applications to achieve the parllel processing which launches the multiple soffice instances and , I don;t know which soffice is taking time/hung to kill it. 
So it is nice to have a process id returned when  I called  
Reference< XComponentContext > xContext(::cppu::bootstrap());

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Launch the soffice  with Reference< XComponentContext > xContext(::cppu::bootstrap()); in your sample application.
2. Load the heavy document using loadComponentFromURL which takes some minutes, 
3. when this takes time , try to gracefully kill the soffice and come out of it. But there is no way if multiple soffice instances are running.

Actual Results:
No PID of the soffice available after launching it via 
Reference< XComponentContext > xContext(::cppu::bootstrap());

Expected Results:
Should return the PID maybe via XComponentContext


Reproducible: Always
