Re: Accessing array property length through JNI

I spent some time researching JNI from the previous responses and realized
that there was lot more functionality than I was aware of. I took Barbara's
advice and coded the following after looking into the QSYSIN/QRPGLESRC(JNI) source file and javadoc:



0084.00 d jnames
s
like(jarray)

0085.00 d int1
s
like(jint)

0086.00 d jsize1
s
like(jsize)




some code


0137.00 jnames= split(csvstr
: delimiter);

0138.00 jsize1= GetArrayLength(
JNIENV_P : jnames);









The two parameters (csvstr : delimiter)
are both String objects.



When I compile the program I get:



*RNF5343 30 3738 013700 Array
has too many omitted indexes; specification is
ignored.






I took a guess and assigned a dim(50)
to the declaration of jnames and this time the program failed to compile,
but on the next line:

*RNF5343 30 3739 013800 Array
has too many omitted indexes; specification is

ignored.




Am I on the right path? How should I be declaring jnames?





The JNI specification seems to have
definitions for all sorts of array types except for String arrays. jarray
seemed to be the closest thing to a String array as it resolves to an object type. Have I used the correct
declaration?

The split method creates an array as
big as required and in Java simply returns a reference to the array object.


In my original Java code that worked:


String[] names;

String str1= "Mike,Elizabeth,John,Zoe,Katrina";


String delimiter= ",";


names= str1.split(delimiter);





I was then able to reference the
'names' as an array object.


How should I declare the RPG variable
jnames to get the dynamic allocation of elements from the String.split
method?
Or doesn't it matter because jnames
is an object of type array?


Thanks again.......
