RE: JAVA400-L Digest, Vol 14, Issue 36

Hi,

Gordon and I met, and by testing in Qshell I was able to get the Java
command working by adding the path ""/java/PDFBox/" to the classpath and to
the other files, and by changing the semi colon to a colon in the Classpath.
It could be run in place if you cd to the /java/PDFBox directory, but by
adding the path the class can be run in other commands or apps.

java -Dsun.java2d.cmm=sun.java2d.cmm.kcms.KcmsServiceProvider -cp
/java/PDFBox/pdfbox-app-2.0.2.jar:/java/PDFBox/lib/*
/java/PDFBox/org.apache.pdfbox.tools.PDFBox ExtractImages
/java/PDFBox/Maxfield.pdf

Success!

Kristen

Here is my CL program.

I get the same messages when I ran it on as its own as a Java command.

So I am no worse off. Still have more to learn.

What else do I need to do to get it working?

Thanks

subject: Issue with Classpath and Java on IBM i 7.1

I am trying to get PDFBox from apache.org <http://apache.org/> to run with a
TIFF image extraction jar file from another organization. It is supposed to
work with PDFBox. I got it to work on my computer which is a Windows 10
machine.

The next section here is my back and forth e-mail to get it to work on my
Windows machine. After that I will show what I have done on my power server
to get it to run there as the intention is this will run within a GoAnywhere
MFT (Managed File Transfer) project.

Here is my conversation with apache.org <http://apache.org/>

Hi Gordon,

You need to add the file to the classpath and make your call differently.
Here's what I do:

copy all extra jar files to a lib subdirectory

the call:

java -Dsun.java2d.cmm=sun.java2d.cmm.kcms.KcmsServiceProvider -cp
"pdfbox-app-2.0.2.jar;lib/*" org.apache.pdfbox.tools.PDFBox ExtractImages
Maxfield.pdf


the "-D...." is for JDK8 and higher only. If you don't do it, PDFBox might
run slow.

@Maruan: I wonder if we should explain this somehow somewhere.

Thanks for that. I have downloaded the file into my server. But I am still
having problems. I am not a java programmer. I use java standalone binaries
like PDFBox as a tool to help with specific projects. I have used it for
quite a while to Extract Text. We take the text files and process the data
within with great success.

In this case I am trying to extract the TIFF image.

Currently I am trying to get it to work on my PC and not the server.

My java directory has the following files:

Directory of C:\java

2016-07-05 10:27 AM <DIR> .
2016-07-05 10:27 AM <DIR> ..
2016-06-30 07:44 AM 1,140,632 jai-imageio-1.1.jar
2016-06-16 12:55 PM 44,035 Maxfield.pdf
2016-06-09 03:04 PM 7,942,473 pdfbox-app-2.0.2.jar

Then I run the following to set my class path.

set CLASSPATH=C:\java

Then I run the PDFBox command to the extract the TIFF image.

java -jar pdfbox-app-2.0.2.jar ExtractImages Maxfield.pdf

This is what I get when I run the command.

Writing image: Maxfield-1
Jul 05, 2016 10:18:46 AM org.apache.pdfbox.tools.imageio.ImageIOUtil

Why is not finding the jai-imageio-1.1.jar file?

My guess it is something simple. I think my lack of understanding of Java
is causing the problem.

Thanks

Gordon

In my opinion, there are several questions to be asked, and some concepts
you need to learn.

How are you calling the program that is failing now?

When it is called by the MCF job how will it be called?

I suggest setting up the environment from within a clp program, then
calling the Java program in the clp. It will need both the classpath and
a path set up.
