Re: RPG calling JAVA performance

Peter,

I didn't succeed in calling JexelApi from RPG.

In Rpg before calling the Workbook.createWorkbook(...)
we must call the *contructor for Workbook to get an instance of Workbook.

wb = Workbook();

and then we can invoke the method and get the WritableWorkbook

wwb = createWorkbook(wb.outFile);

Then if we want to use it with Rpg I think that the class should be:

public class jxl.Workbook extends java.lang.Object {
public jxl.Workbook();

because with:

public abstract class jxl.Workbook extends java.lang.Object {
protected jxl.Workbook();

when we invoke the *contructor from Jni it can't be found

But this does not mean that it can't be done. I dind't succeed . . .
If you do, let us know.

Giuseppe.
