+<paragraph role="warning" id="par_id3147001" xml-lang="en-US">The method of extending Calc by Add-Ins that is described in the following is outdated. The interfaces are still valid and supported, to ensure compatibility with existing Add-Ins, but for programming new Add-Ins you should use the new <link href="text/shared/guide/integratinguno.xhp" name="API functions">API functions</link>.</paragraph>
+<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3150361" xml-lang="en-US">$[officename] Calc can be expanded by Add-Ins, which are external programming modules providing additional functions for working with spreadsheets. These are listed in the <emph>Function Wizard</emph> in the <emph>Add-In</emph> category. If you would like to program an Add-In yourself, you can learn here which functions must be exported by the <switchinline select="sys"><caseinline select="UNIX">shared library
+</caseinline><defaultinline>external DLL</defaultinline></switchinline> so that the Add-In can be successfully attached.</paragraph>
+<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3149211" xml-lang="en-US">$[officename] searches the Add-in folder defined in the configuration for a suitable <switchinline select="sys"><caseinline select="UNIX">shared library
+</caseinline><defaultinline>DLL</defaultinline></switchinline>. To be recognized by $[officename], the <switchinline select="sys"><caseinline select="UNIX">shared library
+</caseinline><defaultinline>DLL</defaultinline></switchinline> must have certain properties, as explained in the following. This information allows you to program your own Add-In for <emph>Function Wizard</emph> of $[officename] Calc.</paragraph>

+<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3156292" xml-lang="en-US">Each Add-In library provides several functions. Some functions are used for administrative purposes. You can choose almost any name for your own functions. However, they must also follow certain rules regarding parameter passing. The exact naming and calling conventions vary for different platforms.</paragraph>

+<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3148837" xml-lang="en-US">At a minimum, the administrative functions <link href="text/scalc/01/04060112.xhp" name="GetFunctionCount">GetFunctionCount</link> and <link href="text/scalc/01/04060112.xhp" name="GetFunctionData">GetFunctionData</link> must exist. Using these, the functions as well as parameter types and return values can be determined. As return values, the Double and String types are supported. As parameters, additionally the cell areas <link href="text/scalc/01/04060112.xhp" name="Double Array">Double Array</link>, <link href="text/scalc/01/04060112.xhp" name="String Array">String Array</link>, and <link href="text/scalc/01/04060112.xhp" name="Cell Array">Cell Array</link> are supported.</paragraph>
+<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3148604" xml-lang="en-US">Parameters are passed using references. Therefore, a change of these values is basically possible. However, this is not supported in $[officename] Calc because it does not make sense within spreadsheets.</paragraph>
+<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3150112" xml-lang="en-US">Libraries can be reloaded during runtime and their contents can be analyzed by the administrative functions. For each function, information is available about count and type of parameters, internal and external function names and an administrative number.</paragraph>
+<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3155269" xml-lang="en-US">The functions are called synchronously and return their results immediately. Real time functions (asynchronous functions) are also possible; however, they are not explained in detail because of their complexity.</paragraph>
