RE: Using Compound Java Statements in RPG -- JAVA400-L

I got around this by just ignoring it.  I used Java to figure out what the 
actual value was that was returned from the static method in question and 
inserted it directly.  I can figure this out later.

One more brainteaser.  The CLASSPATH has me messed up.  My program works fine 
as long as I just refer to base java classes.  When I try to hit my classes, it 
blows up saying that it can not find the class definition.

My jarfile is in /home/myfiles.
The jarfile has full public access.
The jarfile is not corrupt (I opened it using winzip and everything is fine).
The classpath is set with:
CHGENVVAR ENVVAR(classpath) VALUE('.:/home/myfiles/itext-1.3.jar')
at the *JOB level.

Running the program gets me:
Cause . . . . . :   RPG procedure PDFMAKER in program KAUTZ/PDFMAKER received
  Java exception "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/lowagie/text/Rectangle"
  when calling method "<init>" with signature "(FF)V" in class               
  "com.lowagie.text.Rectangle".                                              
But the class does have a constructor with two floats. I know it works because 
I wrote a JAVA program against it to duplicate the RPG code and it works fine.

Procedure def in RPG:
     D makeRec         PR              O    EXTPROC(*JAVA:
     D                                     'com.lowagie.text.Rectangle':
     D                                     *CONSTRUCTOR)
     D   hight                        4F   VALUE
     D   width                        4F   VALUE 

Confused Larry.

<br>Let's say I have a java class com.zzz.test.Pages.<br>Pages contains types 
of pages, which are also objects.<br>Each type of page has methods.  So in java 
I can simply<br>choose A4 type paper and rotate it with the 
code:<br><br>com.zzz.text.Pages.A4.rotate();<br><br>This is all static stuff 
built into the class itself.<br><br>I've been fooling around with how to 
prototype this method and not getting anywhere.  This seems to be wrong, but 
can't think of how to do it correctly:<br><br>      * Rotate Method<br>     D
