Importing a class from another context?

Hi JSP techies,
Im using RESIN and having a simple problem of figuring out how to import classes from another context, if Im using the right word.
ie.
My .jsp files are under $home/resin/doc/test dir. And in the jsp file, I would like to import a servlet class or a plain java class. But the servlet classes and all other classes are located under $home/resin/webapps/project/WEB-INF/classes/a/b/c
Hence when I say
<% page import="a.b.c.*" %>
I get an error saying "a" not found.
1. When I say "servlet classes are in a different CONTEXT", is that right? or is it just another directory?
2. How can I make the jsp file import the classes from the servlets class path?
Note: Ofcourse, when I copy the package to the
$home/resin/doc/WEB-INF/classes dir, everything works fine. But thats simply not an efficient way to get around. Could anyone clear my doubts on this regd.?
Thanks in advance.

Oh... I get it now. I'm sorry, I had you poorly misunderstood. You are trying to import servlets from another web app or servlet context. I would suggest you put servlets that are common to all web apps in the system classpath and not tie them to any particular web app. In other words create a package directory structure from the system's root directory or any where outside of any web apps and point the system classpath to the beginning of that directory structure. I have a similar thing going with Tomcat. I have a folder in my root called Java_Class which is in my classpath. I build all common utilities in this directory. So I have a com/craig/web structure that holds my AppServlet which is in package com.craig.web. This servlet is visible to all web apps via the Windows classpath. Servlets particular to an application like say an MusicOrderProcess servlet would reside in a package under the webserverhome/webapps/MusicStore/WEB-INF/classes directory where webserver home is the home directory of the webserver you are using. I've tested this across webservers as well (orionserver and Tomcat) and it works.
From the prompt you include in your posts I am guessing that you are running on UNIX. Move your common servlets out of their respective web apps and into a common directory structure. Configure the UNIX $CLASSPATH (or is it $classpath?) environment variable to point to this sturcture and you'll be on your way!
Post again if you have more questions!

Is there a way to import a class from another drive?

I need to access a DB class that is sitting on another machine. Any help would be appreciated greatly. thanks.

To use a class, it needs to be in your classpath. So either map a drive to the directory where the class is and put that drive in your classpath, or make a local copy of the class.

Accessing a variable defined in one class from another class..

Greetings,
I've only been programming in as3 for a couple months, and so far I've written several compositional classes that take MovieClips as inputs to handle behaviors and interactions in a simple game I'm creating. One problem I keep coming upon is that I'd love to access the custom variables I define within one class from another class. In the game I'm creating, Main.as is my document class, from which I invoke a class called 'Level1.as' which invokes all the other classes I've written.
Below I've pasted my class 'DieLikeThePhishes'. For example, I would love to know the syntax for accessing the boolean variable 'phish1BeenHit' (line 31) from another class. I've tried the dot syntax you would use to access a MovieClip inside another MovieClip and it doesn't seem to be working for me. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks,
- Jeremy

I would approach it in much the same way as you would in java, by making getters and setters for all of your class variables.
Getters being for returning the values, Setters being for setting them.
So you would make a get function for the variable you want to access ala:
function get1PhishBeenHit():boolean {
return this.phish1BeenHit;
Then to access the value of that variable from outwith the class:
var result:boolean = ClassInstanceName.get1PhishBeenHit();

How do I save and import my bookmarks from another hard drive? When I try to open the installed Firefox on the old drive, it (obviously) opens a browser from the new main drive, free of bookmarks. Is there a way I can save the bookmarks on the old drive without opening a browser?
The guts of my computer were rearranged and I got a new main hard drive. My old one is still in there and I can get stuff from it, but when I go to the Mozilla folder on the old one, I can't figure out if there's anything I can do to get all my bookmarks from that drive to my new one, where Firefox is newly installed.

If you open Firefox then Firefox will always use the default profile folder as found via profiles.ini on your system drive.
You either need to import the file in your current default profile or copy the file to your current profile folder while Firefox is closed.
Firefox 3 stores the bookmarks and the browser history in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/places.sqlite places.sqlite] and no longer creates an HTML backup by default.
There are also (five) JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder within the Firefox profile folder.
You can either copy the file places.sqlite to your [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] or import the most recent JSON backup from the bookmarkbackups folder of that old profile.
See:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
"Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
Go to: Control Panel > Folder Options > "View" tab > under "Hidden files and folders", select "Show hidden files and folders".
You may want to un-check the box "Hide extensions for known file types" to see the file extensions of all files.

To be begin with your problem sounds like you are doing everything in one thread. So stop doing that. Second when you get it split up and if a task is taking too much time then interrupt it. No kill. Interrupt. This means the worker thread needs to check sometimes if it has been interrupted.

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 a method of one class from another withing the same package

hi,
i've some problem in calling a method of one class from another class within the same package.
for eg. if in Package mypack. i'm having 2 files, f1 and f2. i would like to call a method of f2 from f1(f1 is a servlet) . i donno exactly how to instantiate the object for f2. can anybody please help me in this regard.
Thank u in advance.
Regards,
Fazli

This is what my exact problem.
i've created a bean (DataBean) to access the database. i'm having a servlet program (ShopBook). now to check some details over there in the database from the servlet i'm in need to use a method in the DataBean.
both ShopBook.java and DataBean.java lies in the package shoppack.
in ShopBook i tried to instantiate the object to DataBean as
DataBean db = new DataBean();
it shows the compiler error, unable to resolve symbol DataBean.
note:
first i compiled DataBean.java, it got compiled perfectly and the class file resides inside the shoppack.
when i'm trying to compile the ShopBook its telling this error.
hope i'm clear in explaining my problem. can u please help me?
thank u in advance.

How to call a method in IMPL class from one context node

Hi, I´ve been only study the posibility to access a method in the IMPL class from one context node class...CN## without using events, is there a way to call it ??? I don´t have it as requierement just learning thanks !.

Hi,
Try this by following this you can get the custom controller instacne in the view context nodes, for your requirement you can keep the view implementation class instance instead of cuco..
To get the custom controller instance in Context node getter/setter method:
1. Declare Cuco instance reference variable in ctxt class..
2. Set this cuco ref. in the Create context node method of ctxt class:
try.
gr_cucoadminh ?= owner->get_custom_controller( 'ICCMP_BTSHEAD/cucoadminh' ). "#EC NOTEXT
catch cx_root.
endtry.
you can avoid this step as this is not needed in case of view isntance
3. Assign this instance to the respective context node Create method using:
BTStatusH->gr_cuco ?= gr_cucoadminh. " here assign the view implementation ref. " me" instead of gr_cucoadminh
Here gr_cuco is the ref. variable of custom controller in the respective context node for eg. BtstatusH
Sample implementation of this can be found in
ICCMP_BTSHEAD/BTSHeader ->context node BTACTIVITYH-> attr ->GR_CUCO(instance of cuco)

Include a page from another context in a facelet

Hi,
I'd like to know how to include a facelet page from another context using JSF. Something similar was done for JSPs in this thread
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=451823&messageID=2053784
I'm using <ui:include > in the facelet and tomcat 5.5, but I'm not sure if I should use the FaceletContext -> ServletContext -> RequestDispatcher, etc. and in what way in the facelet.
thanks!

That only appears to work within the same context, i.e., if I have two contexts:
webapps/context1
webapps/context2
and the original facelet is in context1, I cannot ui:include a facelet from context2. Doesn't work.

basedir="${compile.dir}"
includes="another.jar" >
</jar>
</target>
in my build.xml?
Thanx a lot for Your tips.

I've found some resolve:

<unjar src="another.jar" dest="another_dir"/>
<jar jarfile="deploy/my.jar">
<fileset dir="${compile.outdir}" includes="**" />
<fileset dir="another_dir" includes="**" />

How Do I Run A Class From Another Class?

Hiya everyone, id like to know how to run a class from another class.
Ive got a Login class which extends a JFrame and a Personnel class which also extends a JFrame. When i press the login button (in Login class), ive got it to decide if password/login are acceptable and if they are, I want the Login class to close then run the Personnel class.
Im just after the code which says to close this class and run the Personnel class. How do i do that?
Ive researched this but couldnt get an understandable answer!
Help would be much appreciated, Ant...

How do I import email messages from another server?

Heya,
So I can't figure out how to import mail messages from another server into this one? I had [email protected] pointing to the old one, when I repointed it obviously all my email "disappeared" because there is none on the new server. So how do I move it from the old server to the new one? Usually I'd just drag and drop the email message files over FTP but SLS doesn't seem to give me permission to do that on this one.
Thanks!

Im using BlueJ, I want to import a class from a path I set.

Hi, I'm using BlueJ and I want to import a class from a path I set.
Like this
import "C:\myfolder\*";
Instead of like this
import java.thing.*;
Any ideas why the above line is not working for me?

The import statement takes a class name or package name + .*, not a file name. It has nothing to do with files.
import package.name.ClassName; // to import a class
import package.name.*; // to import all classes in the package named "package.name"
You need to properly specify your classpath at compile-time as well as run-time.
