RE: Running java on Iseries

Thanks Aaron,

That seems to work.  I think somewhere along the way I tried something
similar, but I'm sure I didn't include the actual jt400.jar as part of
the path.  

I'm making more progress each day.

Why not just do it the way the java.exe was designed to work by using
the "-cp" option?

dos>> java -cp c:\iseriesjava;c:\jdbcdrivers\jt400.jar
fac.FacilityAccessGetFiles

Note that you have to explicitly include each jar file, you can't just
specify the directory that the jar files are located in and have it find
them.

Sure.  
Note: my testaccess.jar which contains FacilityAccessGetFIles lives in
C:\Iseriesjava.  My jt400.jar lives in c:\jdbcdrivers. 

At first I was doing
C:\Iseriesjava
Set classpath =C:\iseriesjava;C:\jdbcdrivers java
fac.FacilityAccessGetFiles

This resulted in classnotfound exception error.  

Then on a whim and a prayer I added the jt400.jar to my testaccess.jar
file that I had exported from WDSC. 
And simply did a
Java fac.FacilityAccessGetFiles
This worked.  

This is the first time I have ever tried to run anything java outside of
wdsc, so I'm probably missing something very simple.  I just don't know
what.  I suppose I could get by with adding the jt400.jar everytime, but
I don't believe this is the correct way.

Could you post what you are executing from the DOS prompt?

Should be something like this:

java -cp c:\folder;c:\folder\jar1.jar;c:\folder1\jar2.jar MyClass

Do you try to call it from the dos command line, or from within WDSC?

Well I've been trying to get this figured out on my own.  No success. 
Before trying to move this to its ultimate destination, I have 
Exported my package to a folder on my C drive. C:\IseriesJava.

I have another folder on my C drive that contains JT400.jar.  This is
C:\JDBCDrivers

I have added this to my classpath by trying both of the following Set
classpath=C:\JDBCDrivers and Set Claspath=C:\JDBCDrivers\jt400.jar

I have tried copying jt400.jar to my folder C:\IseriesJava

Nothing I have tried is giving me success.
The program is trying to run.  I get a connection to my access driver.

Then I get the following error java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: 
com.ibm.as400.access.AS400JDBCDriver

If I understand correctly, this means that it cannot find the
JT400.jar

What am I missing here?
