Setting up (netbeans + OOo api plugin + OOo sdk) for developing openoffice extension on Linux Mint (Ubuntu)

I downloaded the whole source codes from openoffice.org and was just about to read the guide on how to build it. Just downloading the compressed source and extracting them took about 3 hours. I could not compile the source because there were some dependency problems. I went to openoffice IRC. (http://webchat.freenode.net/ , channel: openoffice). There someone suggested me to try netbeans with OpenOffice api plugin and OpenOffice SDK). After some fiddling around, I think I finally got everything set. Now I think I can use netbeans to create OpenOffice extension (check the last pic below). There is tutorial on OpenOffice website on how to setup the netbeans to work with this. But it was missing some information specific to any Linux distribution. I am using Linux Mint which i think is basically Ubuntu. Open package manager in Linux Mint or the Synaptic package manager in Ubuntu to install the openoffice with SDK. By default, when we install OpenOffice, it doesn’t install the SDK. (edit: openoffice.org-dev  is the program you want to install. SDK is included with it). Then, install netbeans. Then, install the plugin from netbeans -> tools -> plugins. When using the plugin for the first item, it will require paths to the OpenOffice and the OpenOffice SDK directory. Once they are provided, it is ready.
