Re: CLASSPATH Problem (RPG Calling JAVA)

Based on the way you call it, the PR definition needs an input parm:

D postXml         PR           EXTPROC(*JAVA:'PostOutBoundXml':

Thanks Kristen...  I used the fully qualified class and corrected an error
in the classpath variable.  Now I am getting noSuchMethodError postXml()V.
postXml accepts a String object and returns void.  I am a little confused.

You must use the fully qualified class name in the *JAVA: designation.

I realize this topic has been beaten to pulp in the archives, but I am
unable to determine why my simple RPG program cannot find a Java class that
I have written.  I followed the steps that Kevin Vandever mentions in his
Midrange articles.



I have built a Prototype and RPG program as follows:

D postXml         PR                  EXTPROC(*JAVA:'PostOutBoundXml':

D 'postXml') D newString PR O ExtProc(*JAVA:

D                                             'java.lang.String':

D *CONSTRUCTOR)

D                                     Class(*JAVA:'java.lang.String')

D charParm 100A CONST VARYING

RPG Program:

H DftActGrp(*NO) ActGrp(*CALLER) /Copy *LibL/QRpgLeSrc,XmlOutPR

D strObj          S               O   Class(*JAVA:'java.lang.String')

C/FREE strObj = newString('<TEST>'); postXml(strObj); Eval *inLR = *on;

/END-FREE



When I call the Java postXml method, I get an exception
"java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: PostOutBoundXml" when calling

method "postXml" with signature "()V" in class "PostOutBoundXml".  I created
the PostOutBoundXml class in Eclipse, jar'd it up, and placed the jar on the
IFS.  I set the CLASSPATH variable as *job.  The PostOutBoundXml does have a
package.  However, I am assuming the 400 will register it within the jar
file?  I am testing simply by calling the RPG program from the command line.
Does anyone know what I could be doing wrong?  Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
