BPM 11G : Business Catalog : Java JAR Files

Folks,
We have invested a lot of effort & time in developing Business Processes in ALBPM 6.5. One of the critical features in ALBPM 6.5 was the Business Catalog - if I had a set of Java Utility Classes bundled in a JAR Archive, I could " catalog " it & reference & reuse the classes via the PBL Code.
We are now evaluating our Migration Approach to Oracle SOA 11G & we have a few questions :-
1. Does Oracle BPM 11G also have the facility of directly " cataloging " Java JAR Archives ?
2. If no, what is the best approach, in your viewpoint, to migrate business logic that is present in many such JAR archives.
We are looking at abstracting the business logic in Web Services - however, the ideal path we are looking at is to retain our investment in the Business Catalog JAR Files.
Please do let me know your thoughts & opinions.
Thanks in advance,
Sandeep Seshan

There are 2 options you have:
1. If you access the java code from within a BPEL process instead you can use the java embedding activity to call these classes directly.
2. You expose your java classes through a spring context and use the spring component to expose the required classes as services within your composite which you can wire directly to your BPMN process.
Thanks,
Adam DesJardin

Problem trying to cataloge a jar file OBPM 10.3.1.0

Hi,
I´m having problems when i cataloge a jar file, in OBPM suite 10.3.1.0, it is an itext jar file. I´ve been trying to cataloge older and newer versions of the Itext jar file but there´s no difference in the outcome.
I create the external resource, but when i try to cataloge the package it doesn´t work
The message it returns is:
[Error] Excepción de introspección: Internal Error: java.lang.VerifyError: (class: com/lowagie/text/RectangleReadOnly, method: <init> signature: (Lcom/lowagie/text/Rectangle;)V) Bad access to protected data..
is there anything i can do to solve this problem?..
Thanks for your time

Hi Dan,
I´ve done what you told me, i buid a helper class to invoke the iText classes ,and i just cataloge the helper class keeping all the jar files only in the external resource
When i run my class out of OBPM it works fine, but when i try to invoke my class from OBPM with the same jar classes i use in a external way i get the following message:
     at fuego.component.ExecutionThread.work(ExecutionThread.java:839)
     at fuego.component.ExecutionThread.run(ExecutionThread.java:408)
Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter.setRgbTransparencyBlending(Z)V

     at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.export.JRPdfExporter.exportReport(JRPdfExporter.java:381)
i change the version of iText.jar many times and i get the same message..
thanks in advance

Traversing the Java Jar file

Hi,
This might sound like a weird question, but I need to traverse the Java Jar file and create respective Java objects into objects in some other language using reflection.
Is it possible to find the path for the class files located in any jar file? Does Java supports traversing or reading and finding jar contents?
Thanks

I found a way to traverse the Jar, using java.util.zip, one can create a zip file for the given jar file and using ZipEntry it is possible to findout the properties associated with the jar/zip entries.

Opening a java jar file through a labview program

Hello,
I need to open a java jar file in labview........this jar file is a GUI with multiple frames and has buttons on each frame help navigate through between frames....i just require the program to open it and close it based on some signals so then i won't have to do it manually

LabVIEW doesn't have any control over what happens in a system exec, as you give the control to the system. You can, however, check the process list through .NET commands and kill the process (You should be able to stop it through "taskkill /F /im java.exe"). Not the prettiest solution, but should work.

How to run java jar file

Hello,
I got a java jar file which contains folders with class file. When I double click on the jar file, it gave a error
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError
How can I run this jar file?
Thanks,

Hello,

Thanks,
CR... and assuming that Jar contains a manifest file, what does it look like? I would guess that the Main-Class entry is incorrect, or that the Jar has external dependencies to other jars not listed properly in the Class-Path entry.

Java Jar files, and what is needed to run them?

I'm sort of confused on what happens with JAR files, because on my computers that have all of the java SDK's and programs installed it works as an executable. But on my computer that doesn't have java installed(except for the windows xp basic) it wont work or registers with winRAR.
My question is, is what needs to be installed on the computer to get an executable jar file to work. Is it JRE, or the SDK? And where can I get the file/s that may be needed to be installed.
Thanks for the help

jre stands for java runtime environment, i.e. everything you need to run a java application on your computer.
sdk stands for software development kit, i.e. everything you need to develop java applications
the jre run jar files for sure

Protecting Java jar files from decompiling.

Hello,
I need to distrubute ny Java application, I know there are tools to reengineer the java class file. How to Protect my class files from exploitation.
Any suggestions.
Thanks
Shreenivasa

1. Write a no-decompile clause into the licence.
2. Make your product so expensive that no licensee will want anybody else to get one for nothing.
3. Make your product so inexpensive that it would be simpler to buy it than reverse-engineer it.
4. Bring out new versions of your product so rapidly or with such amazing new features in each release that the reverse-engineers can't keep up with you.
5. Make a proper evaluation of the forgone revenue against the cost of all this engineering, that doesn't assume you would have sold a copy to every potential pirate, or that you can actually deter every potential pirate.
In short it is a business problem. Not a technical problem.

Help with Java JAR file opbfuscation.

I am looking for a free (no $) for use on commercial java code
code obfuscation program, which can beat the Jode decompiler.
I have tried Proguard, and I have tried Joga
(using Jode itself for obfuscation is too complex for my purposes).
Is there a simple way to beat decompilers like Jode and DJ,
without a financial outlay if possible,
given how easy it is to decompile Java bytecode?

All interesting remarks, everyone!
Proguard doesn't prevent decompilation on something very small, like a jar
with one or two classes.
Proguard is free(no money) for use over commercial java code,
and is itself a java jar, so it will run on Windows,
Mac and Linux platorfms.
It also correctly obfuscates and links external java libraries
and references to the man jar/class in a very systematic way.
I'm just wondering if there is something similar to proguard on licensing arrangements,
working over small amounts of code, and beating
the decompilers (like Jode).
I have used the code obfuscation that Dr.Java performs on it's classes during compilation.
And while the resulting class file tested does confound Jode,
JD-Gui ("Java decompiler") instantly beats the results of Dr.Java.
Considering how easy it is to break class files, I was figuring that either Sun
or another would offer a free/open source/cheap way to secure these class files,
without resulting to Zelix Klassmaster, and instead of leaving a mess
of decompiled source code, prevent decompilation of java byte
code even happening at all?
Any ideas?

Hide java (.jar) file in dock

help. im using mrpostman with thunderbird. i set up mrpostman.jar to open automatically everytime i login. i checked the "hide" button.. but upon restart i still see the java file/icon in the dock. is there anyway i can hide this? please help...

so is it safe to say that there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY to make "java" no appear in the dock?
if that is the case, how can i possibly change the icon of that file? i tried the getinfo+paste but the icon only changed in the finder window and not the dock.. and i noticed there is no "show package contents" for jar files..
