Re: Calling Java from RPG - CLASSPATH Problem?

OK. Thanks Mark and David.  Making those changes and setting the CLASSPATH
as a *JOB level environement variable just before I called the java class
worked. Finds it now anyway.

I have another question now:

When calling the autCard method in my class, which now looks like this:

  public String autCard(String inputParms) {

and the RPG prototype for that looks like this:

  D PFProAut   PR 2000a
  D                                    EXTPROC(*JAVA:'PFProJava3':'autCard')
  D stringParm                   Like(string)


(where "string" is an object reference to:   "D string    S   O
CLASS(*JAVA:'java.lang.String')


then calling the method looks like:

   Response = PFProAut(obj_ref:string)

I get an error:

 ...NoSuchMethodError:  autCard when calling method "autCard" with signature
"(Ljava.lang.String;) [B" in class PFProJava3.

I looked at the signatures for this class using javap -s PFProJava3

and I see the signature for autCard looks like:

public java.lang.String autCard(java.lang.String);
 /* (Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/String; */

So....it looks like the difference is the "type" of string? maybe?    I
don't know what the "[B"  signature is there when I make the call.

Thank you in advance for your assistance and patience in educating  me on
this!
