Calling a java webservice from another application say a Vb client

Hi,
I have written a simple web service which greets the user "Hello" and using Apache axis and deployed on Tomcat.Everything works fine.
But lots being said about interoperability but right now i cannot appreciate that as i don't know how to call my webservice written in java to be called from say a VB application or a component running on IIS server.
Can anyone write a small snippet of code to do that..
Your help is highly appreciated...
thanks

How to call a Java class from another java class ??

Hi ..... can somebody plz tell me
How to call a Java Class from another Java Class assuming both in the same Package??
I want to call the entire Java Class (not any specific method only........I want all the functionalities of that class)
Please provide me some slotuions!!
Waiting for some fast replies!!
Regards
Smita Mohanty

Hi Smita,
you just need to create an object of that class,thats it. Then you will be able to execute each and every method.
e.g.
you have developed A.java and B.java, both are in same package.
in implementaion of B.java
class B
            A obj = new A();
             //to access A's methods
             A.method();
            // to access A's variable
            //either
           A.variable= value.
           //or
           A.setvariable() or A.getvariable()

Calling one java program from another

Hello,
How can I start another java program from one? Lets
say I want Second.java to start by calling it from
First.java. How do I do it? The two programs are given
below. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Amanda
First.java
import java.io.*;
import java.lang.reflect.*;
public class First
     public static void main(String[] args)
          Process theProcess=null;
          System.out.println("Hello World from First.java!");
          String second=new String("Second.java");
          //System.load(second);
          //Runtime.getRuntime().load(second);
          try
               theProcess=Runtime.getRuntime().exec( "Second.java"
               System.out.println("after exec");
          catch (IOException ioe)
               System.out.println(">>IOException thrown in
First.java while calling
Second.java."+ioe.getMessage());
Second.java
public class Second
     public static void main(String[] args)
          System.out.println("Hello World from Second.java!");
}

Thanks, warnerja
What if Second.java is on a remote machine i.e.
First.java and second.java are on different machines?
Will I have to use RMI?Well, you'd have to do some kind of remote invocation. Depends on what kinds of apps house the classes. There are all kinds of ways - web services, servlets, RMI, (maybe others...)
That's a totally different question than what you originally posted, and would have been very relevant to say so in the first place.

How to call a C function calling a Java Method from another C function ?

Hi everyone,
I'm just starting to learn JNI and my problem is that I don't know if it is possible to call a C function calling a Java Method (or doing anything else with JNI) from another C function.
In fact, after receiving datas in a socket made by a C function, I would like to create a class instance (and I don't know how to do it too ; ) ) and init this instance with the strings I received in the socket.
Is all that possible ?
Thank you very much for your help !

Hard to understand the question, but by most interpretations the answer is going to be yes.
You do of course understand that JNI is the "API" that sits between Java and C and that every call between the two must go through that. You can't call it directly.

Trouble in Unix calling a Java utility from another shell script

Hi,
I'm able to run a shell script (call it script B) in Unix which calls a Java utility. When I call script B from another script (script A) I get the error below. I have done much work to make sure the environment variables are the same.
java.util.zip.ZipException: error in opening zip f
ile
at java.util.zip.ZipFile.open(Native Method)
at java.util.zip.ZipFile.<init>(ZipFile.java:69)
at com.something.runtime.ZipFileApplicationSource.<init>(ZipFileApplicationSource.java:22)
at com.something.runtime.ZipFileRuntime.main(ZipFileRuntime.java:35
ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
Thanks

Here's my guess, if this doesn't work, post your scripts and maybe that will help.
When you run your script B, you said it works. I think the problem is that when you run script B, your shell and envirenment variables are set by the window you're working in. When you call script B from script A, it creates a new shell to run it and it doesn't run the files that are run when you start a terminal or a telnet(it won't run .cshrc, .kshrc or .login). Depending on what OS you're using, I think the default shell is sh for most of them. The first line of script B should be
#!/(your bin directory)/(shell you're using)
for me it's
#!/bin/tcsh
then you might want to run your startup file to set envirenment variables, paths, etc...
source (your user directory)/(the file name)
for me it's
source ~/.cshrc
Then if you need to set the environment variables in your script.
set CLASSPATH /usr/local/j2ee/bin.....
set PATH /bin:/xyz....
If that doesn't help post your scripts, or if I didn't explain it will enough, just ask.

Calling Local Entity Beans from another Application

Hi,
I packaged all my Local entity Beans in 1 single Application (APP1.EAR).
I then I have another Application (APP2.EAR) which is made of Session Beans which require access to the APP1 application.
I'm using this code to achieve this:
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "admin");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "manager");
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ormi://<host>/APP1");
context = new InitialContext(env);
... (BeanLocalHome)context.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/BeanLocal");
I get the Following Exception:
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: java:comp/env/ejb/BeanLocal not found
1) is there any problem with this code?
2) can local interfaces be accessed by another Application (or can they be accessed only by the same application) ?
Regards.
giuseppe.

Hi ,
thank you for your answer.
I'm still in trouble:
these are the steps:
App1.jar entity beans.
App2.jar Session bean.
I embedded the App1.jar into the App2.ear
dir :
App1.jar
App2.jar
application.xml (added the App1.jar)
then I added this in the ejb-jar.xml deployment descriptor for App2.jar
<ejb-link>../App1.jar#BeanName</ejb-link>
for each entity bean.
But I still get :
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: java:comp/env/ejb/BeanNameLocal not found
java.lang.Object com.evermind.server.ApplicationContext.lookup(java.lang.String, boolean)
ApplicationContext.java:110
java.lang.Object com.evermind.server.ApplicationContext.lookup(java.lang.String)
ApplicationContext.java:66
java.lang.Object javax.naming.InitialContext.lookup(java.lang.String)
What am I missing ??
Thanks.

Calling a Java Program from another

Hi,
I am putting together a Java program which will launch other Java programs.
I was thinking of doing this by calling unix scripts from my java program by getting an instance of the Runtime object and then calling the exec method with the script name.
I am just wondering what is the best practice when doing this? i.e., dealing with timeout issues, and errors in the scripts etc.
I have read this article, which is quite good: http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-2000/jw-1229-traps.html?page=1
Is there any code available on the web that deals with all of the basic error scenarios?
Is it good practice to use a java program to call another java program? Or is there a better way of doing this?
The main reason I am using java is because I am most familiar with it and I need to connect to a database as well and do some manipulation of results returned.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks Prometheuzz
Is the main difference between your suggestion and
using the Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd) way of doing
things is that in the former both eill run as the
same process (Thread) but in the second scenario the
.getRuntime().exec(cmd) will start a separate new
thread?
Many ThanksCorrect. But you can create a sort of wrapper class for A which implements Runnable and stuff it in it's own thread. If you're dealing with Java code only, I advise you to create threads yourself instead of letting your OS handle them.
Here's a demo:
class Foo {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        (new Thread(new ARunner())).start();
        B.main(null);
class ARunner implements Runnable {
    public void run() {
        A.main(null);
class A {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
            Thread.sleep(3000);
        } catch (InterruptedException e) { /* ... */ }
        System.out.println("A");
class B {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("B");
}Of course, you can create a wrapper for B as well.

Calling a bounded task flow (that uses fragments) from another application

Hello,
I'm currently having difficulties calling a task flow located inside another application.
I have application Console which is my main application in which I would like to run other applications within. Inside this Console I have it divided into splitter windows and inside them I have regions. My goal is to be able to call a task flow from another application inside one of these regions but so far I'm having no luck.
My first problem occurred when I created a 'local' task flow to make a call to another application's task flow. When I set the properties to the task flow call, it gave me an error that it could not find the .XML file for that task flow when I ran the Console application. I then proceeded to copy that .XML from the remote application into the Console's WEB-INF directory and I seemed to get a bit farther. The error I get now is saying that I cannot run a task-flow that uses fragments. It's essentially trying to run that task flow as an entirely new page instead of inside the region that it's bound to. It's NOT a dynamic region (although that's the end goal here). So I then changed the other application's task flow to simply display an entire page rather than fragments inside a region and voila, it works..... kind of.
To recap how I was able to call another application's task flow inside the Console:
- I had to manually copy the task flow xml file into the Console WEB-INF directory
- I had to change the task flow so that it didn't use fragments
- I have called the task flow but I lose my console page entirely, no more regions or splitters so I'm back to square one.
If anybody has any suggestions, hints, tips or anything, send them this way and I will be forever greateful.
Thanks,
Mark

Thanks for your response Frank.
Unfortunately the problem seems to be greater than that. I've been able to package task-flows into a jar library and tried importing them that way with no luck.
I'm simple trying to call an external task-flow to run inside a region which is inside a splitter panel that I call my console.
Any other ideas ?

Not able to execute one Java program from another one via. exec()

Hi,
I am new to this forum, so I might be asking a very trivial quetion.
My program Ap1 is :
class Ap1
public static void main(String a[]) throws Exception
Runtime rt=Runtime.getRuntime();
Process p=null;
p=rt.exec("javac,Pr.java");
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("javac,Pr.java");
When I run the above program, I get below error at the line 7(bold one):

Hi diptaPB,
Thanks for your suggestion.
Here is how I tried it again, but not getting the desired output:
Class Pr looks like below -->
class Pr
public static void main(String a[])
System.out.println("hi from process");
When I run 'Pr' from command prompt, i get the desired output:
D:\batchwe>java Pr
hi from process
However, when I call 'Pr' from another program Ap2.java, it seems that it does not call 'Pr':
class Ap2
public static void main(String a[]) throws Exception
Runtime rt=Runtime.getRuntime();
Process p=null;
String[] cmd=new String[2];
cmd[0]="javac";
cmd[1]="Pr.java";
p=rt.exec("cmd");
D:\batchwe>javac Ap2.java
D:\batchwe>java Ap2
************* no output appears here***********************
Looking forward for your help.

How to call java webservice from plsql procedure.

Hi,
Could any one please provide any reference document for invoking a java webservice from pl/sql procedure.
regards,
Venkat

Hi,
There are basically various platforms where u develop the code with different patterns, though the idea is same everywhere.
1. If you want develop a Java Client to call a WebService from NWDS then Pls refer >>
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/43/cb2e29578c0262e10000000a11466f/frameset.htm
Note: By default the WebService developed under NWDS is Document Based WebService (i.e. In WSDL the style element would be 'document')
2. If you want to call a WebService from the platform other than NWDS than, Sun's official site would be the best choice to go for.
Pls refer >>
http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/J2EE/j2ee_ws/#design
Would appreciate if you reward the points if the answer is helpful.
