How to Call .XDO file From Java Program

Hi,
I have developed a report in using BI Publisher version 10.1.3.
I created the report and it only created XDO files. If I want to call XDO file from Java program how I can do that.
What are the APIs available to do that.
Thanks

Hi,
the JavaAPI didn't work with the xdo-Files. But you can create a proxy stub for the Web Service API of BI Publisher which uses the xdo's in the repository.

How to access physical files from java platform

Hello All,
We have one JDE Word Writer program, which export the order master data in the DB2/400 Physical files.
We want to access this data from our java program (reside on windows platform). I am wondering how we can do that. I got one hint that can be accessed by ODBC connection. But I am unable to get the correct ODBC driver. I am looking for correct driver to access the data.
If some one has done this already, please help me. Or suggest me any alternate way.

How to create .exe files from Java class files?

I'm new to Java and I just wonder if it is possible to make executable files out of Java class files. I've checked the Java online help and several search engines, but I still couldn't find anything about that. Is it possible to do so? If not, why not?
Thanx a lot for any help.

I don't remember if there is a program that converts the class file,
but I do know that there are a few that either convert the class file,
or the .java file. You might try searching for ".java to .exe" in the
search engine and seeing what that pulls up.

How to make exe files from java files

Ohhh, so you thought you were going to answer that question? Well I already know the answer, i.e. all the tricks with the jar files or the programs which convert java programs into executable programs.
The reason why I asked this question was to start a discussion concerning question which are frequently asked in the forums. Wouldn�t it be nice to have like statistics over the most faq here, and of course one or several pages with the answers to these questions? This would solve 2 problems:
1) The person who wants to ask the question can find the answer and the solution quickly.
2) The forums would not be packed with the same questions all the time.
I mean, you must admit that the questions regarding �exe files� are asked a lot of times.
Happy coding to ya all!
/TM

Yeah thats my point! these questions should be moved
to a special page, where the answer to theam areDid you the whole message? I said there are FAQs.
