Class file is referencing a type outside the classpath???

Hi All,
I'm developing a EJB project in NWDS.
I'm getthing the below syntax error.
This compilation unit indirectly references the missing type com.sap.exception.BaseException (typically some required class file is referencing a type outside the classpath)
Can you please help me to resolve this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Sundar,
You need to add the ejb20.jar file to your Project classpath.
If you are developing the project locally then the jar file can be directly added to the class path using the Project Properties --> Java build PAth --> Libraries tab --> Add External Jar.
If it is a DC development, the ejb20.jar can be found under the SAP-JEE software component of your track.
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Alka.

How to save library symbols' class files in packages that are not the default package?

Hi,
I perform the following in Flash CS5 with Flash Builder 4
1) Create a new library symbol.
2) Do a RightClick->Properties on the new symbol
3) Check the options for "Export for ActionScript" and "Export in frame 1".
4) I write a new name for my class "Class1" and click on the pencil icon "edit class definition" to edit the class.
At this point my FlashBuilder 4 takes over and opens the "New ActionScript" dialog.
4) I then click on Package-Browse to select a package e.g. com.mycompany.myfiles as the new class destination.
The as file is created as com.mycompany.myfiles/Class1.as as everything seems just fine.
5) I close the ActionScript file and back in Flash CS5 I RightClick on the symbol and select "Edit Class".
At this time, FB4 suggests again to create the file, ignoring the fact that I already created it before.
Do you know of a way I can make Flash CS5 remember where I created the file?
Thanks.

Hi,
I didn't remove the project or delete any of the files.
All I did was create the class file under a package that is not the default package. Then when I clicked on the Flash symbol's "Edit Class" It asked me again to create the same class file.
Only if I create the class in the default package, it won't ask me to recreate it again.

How to stream flv files from a diffferent directory outside the applications folder

Hi everyone,
I want to stream the flv files from a different location
stored in the hard disk, which is outside the applications folder
in the FMS installation root directory. Does anyone know how to do
it?
Regards,
Diptanu

VOD changes won't help him, he said outside the applications
folder. According to adobe any new vod folders must be in the
applications folder, hence virtually worthless for most purposes. A
better question may be, how do you specify a folder on a different
local hard drive. I wish adobe wouldn't make it so complicated, it
should be a really simple matter.

Using Reflection on classes outside the classpath

Hi all,
Im writing a tool that takes a directory containing class files (from other internal projects) and returns information such as the Class name, package, parent, constructors and public methods. These projects will not be on the classpath and will also use jars that are not on the classpath.
I decided that ClassLoaders were the way to go. So I created a SimpleClassLoader class that takes a file, reads it in as an array of bytes and calls defineClass:
public class SimpleClassLoader extends ClassLoader
     public SimpleClassLoader()
     public synchronized Class loadClass(String name, boolean resolveIt) throws ClassNotFoundException
          System.out.println("1) loading class:   " + name);
          return super.loadClass(name, resolveIt);
     public synchronized Class loadClass(File classFile) throws ClassNotFoundException
          System.out.println("2) Loading class: " + classFile.getName());
          try
               byte[] data = getClassData(classFile);
               return defineClass(name, data, 0, data.length);
          catch (IOException e)
               throw new ClassNotFoundException();
     byte[] getClassData(File classFile) throws IOException
          byte result[];
          try
               FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(classFile);
               result = new byte[in.available()];
               in.read(result);
               in.close();
               return result;
          catch (IOException e)
               throw new IOException();
public class ClassParser
     public Class parse (File classFile)
          SimpleClassLoader loader = new SimpleClassLoader();
          Class reflectClass = null;
          try {
               return loader.loadClass(classFile);
          } catch (ClassNotFoundException cnfe) {
               System.out.println("Error loading class: " + classFile.getName() + "\n" + cnfe);
               return null;
}This worked for simple classes but when the superclass was in a jar or another file in the directory that hadnt already been loaded a ClassNotFoundException was thrown. So I then decided to try using URLClassLoader and loading in the jars and the entire source directory before calling findClass on it.
class MyURLClassLoader extends URLClassLoader
     public MyURLClassLoader(URL[] urls)
          super(urls);
     public Class findClass(String classname) throws ClassNotFoundException
          return super.findClass(classname);
public class ClassParser {
     private URL[] _classpath;
     private String _root;
     public ClassParser(File[] files, String root) {
          _root = root;
          _classpath = new URL[files.length];
          for (int i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
               try {
                    URL url = new URL("jar", "", files.toURL() + "!/");
                    this._classpath[i] = url;
               } catch (MalformedURLException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
     public Class parse (File classFile)      {
          MyURLClassLoader urlLoader = new MyURLClassLoader(_classpath);
          Class reflectClass = null;
          String classname = "";
          // Try to load a Class instance from the file
          try {
               classname = getClassName(classFile);
               return urlLoader.findClass(classname);
          } catch (ClassNotFoundException cnfe) {
               System.out.println("Error loading class: " + classname + "\n" + cnfe);
               return null;
     String getClassName (File file) throws ClassNotFoundException {
          if (file.getAbsolutePath().startsWith(_root)) {
               String packagePath = file.getAbsolutePath().substring(_root.length(), file.getAbsolutePath().lastIndexOf("."));
               packagePath = packagePath.replace(File.separatorChar, '.');
               return packagePath;
          } else {
               throw new ClassNotFoundException();
     public static void main(String args[]) {
File [] files = new File [] {
new File("C:\\Projects\\app\lib\\jacob-1.6.jar"),
new File("C:\\Projects\\app\\lib\\xalan.jar"),
new File("C:\\Projects\\app\\lib\\xmlunit1.0.jar"),
new File("C:\\Projects\\app\\classes\\com\\foo\\bar\\swing\\")
parser = new ClassParser(files, "C:\\Projects\\app\\classes\\");
This seems to work when I call findClass on a class thats in one of the jars but not on a class in the classes directory.
Does anyone have any ideas what im doing wrong or whether im barking up the wrong tree completely??
Thanks,
Conor

The URLs that you supply to an URLClassLoader each define the location of the default package for that portion of the classpath for the ClassLoader.
This is the problem line
new File("C:\\Projects\\app\\classes\\com\\foo\\bar\\swing\\")I suspect that it should be..
new File( "C:\\Projects\\app\classes" )as this is the location of that default package.

Property file should be externalize and outside the archive (say ear) ?

My team architect is suggesting me to externalize the property files like locale resources (e.g messages.en.properties ), log4j (e.g log.properties) etc .The reason is to avoid recompiling incase of changes to this resources.
Example tomorrow if something goes wrong in production and we want to enable the debug log,then we can change the property file ,restart the server and we are good.If it was inside the archive file we have to create a brand new
a brand new archive file ,redeploy it and restart the server again.
In my entire work experience I never externalized this resources because they are inherent part of the archive file.Hence any changes then recreate the archive file and redeploy.
The team architect might have some good reason.
Please advice.
Thanks

JUNIT test failure-Configuration file bc4j.xcfg not found in the classpath

Hi All,
As part of an ESS project,Im having a model project containing a VO(parameters VO).This VO is configured to have Read-only access through SQL query and have only one transient attribute each.For the model projects containing the VO for pre merge checker compliance I had to create JUNIT Test projects containing new AMs for testing the parametersVO. While running the JUNIT tests I got an exception like
“oracle.jbo.JboException: JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: oracle.jbo.ConfigException, msg=JBO-33001: Configuration file /oracle/apps/hcm/goals/core/dataMigration/publicEssModel/test/applicationModule/common/bc4j.xcfg is not found in the classpath.”.—even though this file is contained in both the src/classes folder of the project.
When i try to run the TestAM I'm getting an exception like 'configuration tester.xcfg not found in the calsspath.
While debugging this error, we found that we are able to successfully run the JUNIT tests if we make some changes in the adf-config.xml file of the Application. The change required is to comment out the mdsC:adf-mds-config tag in the xml file.
After doing this change Im also able to run my AM without any exception.
Is this a known issue?.
Since modifying the adf-config.xml is not a recommended practice is there any workaround that we can get rid of this exception.
Regards,
Ajin.

Just checked but could only find this thread Unable to run ADFBC JUNIT Test Classes with JDEV11G 11.1.1.6
As it's also dealing with junit and 11.1.1.6.0 you might want to read it.

It has to be in the classpath for getResourceAsStream
to "get" it.So if your question is really about needing to read a file which is not in the classpath and won't be, then as long as you have the path to that file, just use FileInputStream to read it.
InputStream is = new FileInputStream(pathToFileHere);

Configuration file bc4j.xcfg not found in the classpath.

When i try to run an application that uses ADF BC i get an error telling me the bc4j.xcfg was not found.
When i open my AppModule and click the bc4j.xcfg link it opens. When i look at the path it stored in, it is different from the path the error says.
It's something like this:
Configuration file /be/something/model/common/bc4j.xcfg is not found in the classpath
but my appModule opens the bc4j.xcfg in a different folder:
/be/something/utility/common/bc4j.xcfg
It's a fact i modified the project and managed the packages a bit but i always used the refactor menu of jdeveloper in order to move or rename files.
It appears that something has failed while moving/changing name.
I looked inside my project to look for references for bc4j.xcfg but i can't find any so i can't see were to change the directory he needs to look for the bc4j file.
How do i fix my project?

OA_MEDIA referencing a value outside the Context Element

I am attempting to use XML Publisher to change a logo image at the top of a template. I have used the following command with great success:
url:{concat('${OA_MEDIA}’,’/',//C_PAYGROUP',.jpg')}
Unfortunately, this works fine when I have C_PAYGROUP in the Context Element of the XML output I am referencing... in reality this is not the case as I need to get to the absolute path and specify my C_PAYGROUP value from the top level down... i.e:
/HBOSRA0830/LIST_G_SEL_CHECKS/G_SEL_CHECKS/C_PAYGROUP
I have tried the following syntax to no avail and hope someone will be able to help me out a little...
url:{concat('${OA_MEDIA}/',/HBOSRA0830/LIST_G_SEL_CHECKS/G_SEL_CHECKS/C_PAYGROUP,'.jpg')}
Many many thanks,
Terence

Hi Terence,
Looks like a slight problem with where the slashes etc are.
The following will work - note the slash after OA_MEDIA as a seperate field in the concat.
url:{concat('${OA_MEDIA}','/',/HBOSRA0830/LIST_G_C_PAYGROUP/G_C_PAYGROUP/C_PAYGROUP,'.jpg')}

Trying to access methods from a .class file by creating instance of class

Hey all,
I'm hoping you can help. I've been given a file "Input.class" with methods such as readInt(), readString(), etc. I have tried creating instances of this class to make use of it, but I receive the error "cannot find symbol : class Input".
If you could help at all, I would greatly appreciate it.
Here's my code. The first is the base program, the second is the driver.
import java.util.*;
public class CarObject
     private String makeType = "";
     private String modelType = "";
     private int yearOfRelease = 0;
     private double numOfMiles = 0.0;
     public void setFilmTitle(String make)
          makeType = make;
     public void setMediaType(String model)
          modelType = model;
     public void setYearOfRelease(int year)
          yearOfRelease = year;
     public void setNumOfMiles(double miles)
          numOfMiles = miles;
     public String getMakeType()
          return makeType;
     public String getModelType()
          return modelType;
     public int getYearOfRelease()
          return yearOfRelease;
     public double getNumOfMiles()
          return numOfMiles;
The program is used by a rental car company and the object takes on desired attributes.
import java.util.*;
public class TestCarObject
     static Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
     public static void main(String[] args)
          System.out.println("Please answer the following questions regarding your rental car order.");
          Input carinput = new Input();
          String makeType = carinput.readString("Enter your desired make of car: ");
          String modelType = carinput.readString("Enter your desired model of car: ");
          int yearOfRelease = carinput.readInt("Enter the oldest acceptable year of release to rent: ");
          double numOfMiles = carinput.readDouble("Enter the highest acceptable number of miles: ");
          System.out.println("Make: " + makeType);
          System.out.println("Model: " + makeType);
          System.out.println("Year: " + makeType);
          System.out.println("Mileage: " + makeType);
}

No, I don't know the package name....Is there a way
to import the Input.class by itself without importing
the entire packge?
I tried extending the driver program too...It didn't
work either...
Message was edited by:
BoxMan56How do you know you have a class called Input.class ?
You got a jar file which contains it ? or just a simple .class file ?
You have to set the classpath in either case.
But for the former, you should also need to explicitly telling which package containing the class file you looking for (i.e. Input.class)
e.g. java.util.Vector which is a class called Vector inside java.util package.
You don't have to import the whole package, but you should tell which package this class belongs to.

How to refer to a protected class outside the enclosing package

Hi all,
At the page 357 of the book Java Language Specification(Second Edition), when saying about checking accessibility of Type and Method, they concern Let C be the class containing the method invovation T.m, if T is in a different package than C, and T is protected then T is accessible if and only if C is a subclass of T. I just wonder how to refer a protected type outside the package it declared.
For example,
package test;
public class test {
static protected class protectedTest {
public void foo() {..}
in another package
import test.*;
class subtest extends test.protectedTest { <- error
Anyone can give me an example showing an invocation directly to foo() declared in class test.protectedTest ? The invocation should appear outside package test.
Thanks,
Ha Chau

The protected inner class would be accesible only within a class which extends test, where you could either use or extend it as in:
class subtest extends test {
private static class sub2 extends protectedTest {
}
