Efficiency Question: Simple Java DC vs Used WD Component

Hello guys,
The scenario is - I want to call a function that returns a FileInputStream object so I can process it on my WD view. I can think of two approaches - one is to simply write a simple Java DC that does so and just use it as a used DC so I can call the functionality from there. Or create another WD DC that exposes the value (as binary) via component interface.
I'm leaning on the simple Java DC approach - its easier to create. But I'm just curious on what would be the Pro-side (if there's any) if I use the WD Component interface approach? Is there a plus for the efficiency? (Though I doubt) Or is it just a 'best/recommended practice' approach?
Thanks!
Regards,
Jan

Hi Jan
>one is to simply write a simple Java DC that does so and just use it as a used DC so I can call the functionality from there
Implemented Java API for the purpose mentioned in your question is the right way, I think. The Java API can be even located in the same WebDynpro DC as your WebDynpro components. There is not strongly necessity to put it into separate Java DC.
>Or create another WD DC that exposes the value (as binary) via component interface
You should not do this because in general WD components' purpose is UI, not API. Implementing WD component without any UI, but with some component interface has very-very restricted use cases. Such WD component shall only be a choice in the cases when the API is WebDynpro based and if you have to strongly use WebDynpro Runtime API in order to implement your own API.
If your API does not require WebDynpro Runtime API invocations or anything else related to WebDynpro then your choice is simple Java API.
>But I'm just curious on what would be the Pro-side (if there's any) if I use the WD Component interface approach? Is there a plus for the efficiency?
No. Performance will be better in simple Java API then in WebDynpro component interface. The reason is the API will not pass thought heavy WebDynpro engine.

Simple Java Bean Generator use

Hello everybody,
I'd like to know if someone managed to use the Simple Java Bean Generator, useful tool for web dynpro application in order to import complete database model.
I read the doc, and I think it's usable for SQLServer database. My command is as follows :
java -D com.sap.test.DBTest com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver sa 123erty TSP c:\GenerateDB CONFIG
where CONFIG is my database name, sa/123erty the couple login/pwd, and TSP the pattern (what does it mean pattern in this case ?).
When executing this command, the response is : datasouce not found and driver not specified...
I don't understand, can someone help me please ??
Thanx.

Thanks about your answer.
Without code modifying I wan't to use it with a Maxdb database.
Which driver is ucurrently used ? com.sap.dbtech.jdbc.DriverSapDB ?
Where do i have to launch this script knowing that my J2EE engine is installed in a linux platform ?
My command become :
java -D com.sap.test.DBTest com.sap.dbtech.jdbc.DriverSapDB SAPNW1DB SAPNW1DB CC_ c:\GenerateDB CONFIG_DB
and i always get the response : datasource not found,n driver not specified...
Am I wrong to try this generator in a windows platform where j2ee engine is in a linux platform ??
Thanx a lot in advance !

Simple Java classes (POJO) used to generate EJB3 session

Hi there,
Since relationships between entity beans are not displayed in a EJB3 diagram, I would like to make a regular Java classes diagram (with regular classes) and then manually add annotations to these classes to make persistent (eg. add @Entity....). Then I would like to generate session beans which could use this simple classes as entity but this does not work : JDev only sees entity beans which were created as 'Entity beans from the menu'...
Any idea?
Thanks,
Fabrice.

Just found a solution: I edited the JDev project file (model.jpr in my case) and add the following line inside the <list n="annotatedEjbBeanClassUrls"> tag:
<url path="src/testejb3/model/Class1.java"/>
If works but that's not a wonderful solution. If someone has a solution which works from the IDE then I am still interested ;-)

Fabrice.

Re: Using simple java class in an .war file.

Hi All,
I have a simple question,
Can I access an simple java class from a jsp file that I have written by putting it in the "classes" folder?? What entry should go in the web.xml file?
Here is my directory structure:
sample.war
|
----test.jsp <file>
|
----WEB-INF <folder>
| |
| ----classes<folder>
| | |
| | ----simpleJavaClass.class<file>
| |
| ----lib<folder>
| |
| ----web.xml
I want to access the simpleJavaClass.class from the jsp test.jsp.
Please suggest.
Thanks and regards
Ayusman

It is possible to access the class in u r classes folder from u r jsp file.
For example
<%@ page import="com.test.service.PricingSolution,
com.test.core.PhoneNumber
%>
<% PricingSolution solution = (PricingSolution)session.getAttribute("solution"); %>
This is a simple scriplet example. You do the same using jstl tags also.

Simple Java class using SQLJ not compiling.

set PATH=C:\jdk1.2.2\bin;c:\oracle\ora81\jdbc\bin;
set CLASSPATH="C:\oracle\ora81\jdbc\lib\classes12.zip;C:\oracle\ora81\sqlj\lib\runtime12.zip;C:\oracle\ora81\sqlj\lib\translator.zip;C:\jdk1.2.2\lib\*.*"
then
javac SQLJTester.java
Here is my .java file ---
import java.io.*;
import java.sql.*;
import sqlj.runtime.*;
import sqlj.runtime.ref.*;
public class SQLJTester {
public static void update() throws Exception {
java.sql.Timestamp timeNow;

END
public static void main (String[] args) {
try {
SQLJTester.update();
System.out.println ("Updated successfully");
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println ("Caught an exception.");
Thanks ahead for your time,
Justin

When sqlj files are compiled and translted to java file with them the file with extension .ser is also generated. browsers do not recognise this .ser files they only understand .class files which the download using <codebase> instead of class path. so thats why you r not able to use sqlj in servlet. try to customize the profile. Now can some one inform how to use sqlj from eclipse. does it support?. i need to downoad sqlj.exe for that. if anyone has idea from where i can download sqlj.exe pls inform me at [email protected]

Can we run the batch file using simple java application

Hello sir,
we want to run the batch file using simple java application. i tried with some example, we run the exe files but not batch file.
Runtime r = Runtime.getRuntime();
r.exec("D:\\jboss\\bin\\run.bat");
My application is server will run when we run the java appliation.
any suggestion? plz give me the solutions

yes you can run html file
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT is a built-in that is used in Forms to call URL from a Web Form. It works much like the similar way that a link on an HTML page works and it takes two arguments, one is URL and second one is TARGET, in your case use following.
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://channas.iil.informatics.lk:8890/forms/frmservlet?config=abc.html', '_blank');
Hope this will work for you

Can we call a simple java application from ESB

Please let me know how this can be done by using a ESB. The application jar exists on the host server. How we can pass parameters etc and receive results from this application.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Prakash

Not sure if I completely understand your question, but you can certainly try following ways:
- call your java application via WSIF. ESB with JAVA wsif is available in 10.1.3.3.1 only (it is not supported in 10.1.3.3 very well).
- you will have to include this jar file in server.xml or bpel/system/classes so that it is available to the SOA jvm.
- You mentioned it is simple java application, but if your java API has complex (object) input and output, you will need some work

I am in the process of doing a Proof Of Concept / Evaluating products that can help us build a Java Application to Convert a PDF document to a Searchable PDF.
I wanted to check is there any simple JAVA API from Adobe to achive this ? Any direction in this regard is greatly appreciated.@

You can achieve this using LiveCycle PDF Generator JAVA API. You can find required code here:
Adobe LiveCycle * Quick Start (SOAP mode): Converting a Microsoft Word document to a PDF document using the Java API
In parameters:
//Set createPDF2 parameter values
String adobePDFSettings = "Standard";
String securitySettings = "No Security";
String fileTypeSettings = "Standard OCR";
"Standard OCR" file type setting will run OCR on input pdf. In the code, instead of doc file provide a pdf file. Resultant pdf will be searchable PDF i.e OCRed PDF.
Feel feel to ask any further questions.

How do I call a simple java class from a bpel process?

Hi.
In JDeveloper 10.1.4.3.0 I've created a simple java class that does an ftp get operation followed by an unzip. The class uses some 3rd part libraries (jars).
I want to use a simple bpel process to schedule a daily execution of this java class, and deploy it all to our SOA-server, - and was looking into using the <bpelx:exec> function.
The java class and the bpel process is all stored in the same JDeveloper project.
How do I put this together so that both my java class and the necessary jars are available to the bpel process?
I've looked into the JavaExecSample.bpel, and it's says something about "...the class com.otn.samples.javaexec.CreditCalculator is locally packaged with this BPEL process".
How do I do that?
Can I make it and test it all locally from my workstation (only JDeveloper installed, I guess there's nothing that can execute the bpel code?), or do I have to compile class etc (make war-file?) and deploy to SOA server (BPEL-INF/lib or classes?) before anything can be tested?
(I guess all this is simple, once you know how, but being a newbie to this I need a shove in the right direction :-)
Regards,
-Haakon-

To create a java class and dependent jars inside the BPEL process project you need to do the following:
1. Right click on your BPEL process project and select New and then Java Class from the Items.
2. Make the BPEL process project, JDeveloper would compile the java classes and add them into the BPEL suite case jar, see the output folder and check the BPEL suite case jar file for java classes and dependent jars.
You can test your Java classes from JDeveloper IDE, no need to deploy the classes on SOA server. When you make the BPEL project it compiles .bpel files and Java classes. You can test your classes once .bpel file and java classes compiled successfully.

Dharmendra

How to Deploy a Simple Java Web service in Oracle E Business Suite Server

Hi,
I have created a simple Java webservice using Jdev11g.
I am able to Test the Webservice using Jdev11g itself.
How Can i migrate the same to Oracle E Busienss Suite( - 9iAS ) so that webservice clients connect to 9iAS instead of my local machine
Thanks,
Gowtam.

Hi Sudhakar,
If you are used to working with ant then you can very well use eclipse to deploy your web service.
You would usually have the ant script in the source root working directory. From eclipse if you select the build file from the navigator view and right click you will see a run ant option in the pop up menu.
Select that option and you would be able to see each targets with a checkbox select option. So define each target maybe one for wsdl2java conversion, one for compilation and one for deploying your web services. You can either make all of them run by having depends option on or you can run them individually as it takes your fancy.
I am not sure about debugging a web service yet.
Hope this helps
