Re: Qsh - Java call

Hi,

if you just want to connect to an URL, get the file (pdf, 
html...) and save it on the iSeries (or whatever system you 
are running on)....here is some test code that do so:

java -Djava.version=1.4 URLReader <url> <path> <file>


import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;

public class URLReader {
    public static void main(String args []) throws Exception 
{
                if (args.length < 3) {
                      System.out.println("Error !");     
                        System.out.println("Usage: URLReader 
[url] [path] [file]");
                        return;
                }
            String test = args[0];
            String path = args[1];
            String filename = args[2];

        URL yahoo = new URL(test);
        BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(
                                new InputStreamReader(
                                yahoo.openStream()));

        String inputLine;
      File outputFile = new File(path , filename); 
System.out.println("Destination: " + path);
try{
        PrintWriter outFileStream = new PrintWriter(new 
FileOutputStream(outputFile));
        while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null)         
outFileStream.println(inputLine);
      outFileStream.flush();
      outFileStream.close();
        in.close();
}catch (IOException exc){
System.out.println("Error opening file! Does Directory 
exist?");
System.exit(1);
}
    }
}

Rgds,

Hi all, 

I have a code that tries to open a browser and URL.  I am 
having 
problems getting this to work from qsh command line.   

The code is similar to Ostermiller's Browser() called 
BrowseControl() 
and I removed all the package declarations & jar to call 
from command 
line (I don't understand why, but it would not find the 
class from jar 
when the classpath refers to jar).  I get browser not found 
or cannot be 
opened error now. 
>From the code I understand it picks up UNIX_PATH and so I 
changed the 
default since I don't have netscape. 

Java Code: 

// The default browser under unix. 
// private static final String UNIX_PATH = "netscape"; 
// The flag to display a url. 
private static final String UNIX_PATH = "explorer"; 
private static final String UNIX_FLAG = "-remote 
openURL"; 

I also tried MSIE 

Call and error: 

 Could not invoke browser, command=MISE -remote 
openURL(http://www.javaworld.c 
 om) 

 Caught: java.io.IOException: MISE: not found 

 $ 

> java BrowseControl http://www.yahoo.com 

 Could not invoke browser, command=MISE -remote 
openURL(http://www.javaworld.c 
 om)

 $ 

> java BrowseControl http://www.yahoo.com 

 Could not invoke browser, command=explorer -remote 
openURL(http://www.javawor 
 ld.com) 

 Caught: java.io.IOException: explorer: not found
