Instantiating a class from another package

Hi,
I have two packages, say "framework" and "impl" -
framework package (framework.jar)
- contains base classes
- contains factories to instantiate concrete classes
- bundled in <product>.ear
impl package (impl.jar)
- contains implementation(concrete) classes
- compile time dependency on framework.jar
- bundled in <product>.ear
I could successfully compiled and build <product>.ear which contains both the jars. The ear gets deployed successfully.
PROBLEM
Now, whenever a factory class (part of framework package) tries to instantitate an impl class (part of impl package) using -
Class.forName(impl.ConcreteClassName OR fully_qualified_concrete_class_name).newInstance();
It throws "classNotFoundException". It is not able to locate the concrete class.
So, my question is how can i instantiate a class using its fully qualified name(package.classname) from another package ?
Thanks.

BTW:
Shouldn't the framework better use ServiceRegistry to load implementations?

Executing another class from another package with a click of a button

package language;

          ex.printStackTrace();
    button_12 = new JButton("Run");
    getContentPane().add(button_12);From the codes above, what i intended to do is when clicking the "Run" button, it will pass the values from textfield_4 to another class in another package thus, executing the class with the value of textfield_4. What are the steps to do that? If possible, please insert sample codes. Thank you.

import anyPackage.AnotherClass;
button_12.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
AnotherClass ac = new AnotherClass();
ac.execute(textfield_4.getText());
});Is that what you wanted?

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.

Use a method from another class in another package?

How can I use a method from another class in another package?

WhiteJ wrote:
What do you mean by "new keyword?" You posted this previously:
I tried that, it seems to not be working. I want to use the constructor from the other class. I imported it, using this piece of code:
import components.FileChooser;
components.FileChoser();
Typically if I am going to call a constructor on a class called Fubar, I'd use new to create a new object:
Fubar myFubar = new Fubar();Incidently, is it a simple typo in your post or are you trying to use a FileChoser object when it should be FileChooser?

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()

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.
Arun

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!

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();

Question about access non-public class from other package.

Hi, everyone!
Suppose class A and class B are in the same java file of package pkg1
-- A.java. So, A is a public class and B is a non-public class.
If I want to access class B from another class class C and class
C is in package pkg2. When compiling, an error occurs indicating
that class B is not visible to class C.
So, If I defined serveral classes in one java file and I want to
access every class from other package. How should I do?
(I think in one java file, there should be only one public class and
only the public class can be accessed from other package.)
Thanks in advance,
George

So, If I defined serveral classes in one java file and
I want to
access every class from other package. How should I
do? As you already seem to know, there is at most one public class allowed per source file (at least, with javac and most popular compilers). So if you want more than one public class, you will need to use more than one file...

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.

ANT: Include classes from another jar

Hi all.
Can I add classes from another jar to be added into my jar-file?
Other words, may I write something like this:
<target name="jar" depends="compile">
<jar destfile="deploy/my.jar"
basedir="${compile.dir}"
includes="another.jar" >
</jar>
</target>
in my build.xml?
Thanx a lot for Your tips.
Regards, Volodymyr Shram.

I've found some resolve:
<target name="jar" depends="compile">
<unjar src="another.jar" dest="another_dir"/>
<jar jarfile="deploy/my.jar">
<fileset dir="${compile.outdir}" includes="**" />
<fileset dir="another_dir" includes="**" />
</jar>
</target>
But is it only way? Can I add classes from another.jar to my.jar without extracting?

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...

This is the Login Class:
public class MainMenu extends javax.swing.JFrame {
    Statement statement = null;
    int currentRecord;
    ResultSet rs = null;
    String name = null, job = null, mission = null, login = null, password = null;

        String name = null, job = null, mission = null, login = null, password = null;
        try{
            rs = statement.executeQuery("SELECT Login,Password FROM Personnel WHERE Login = '" + loginVal + "' ");

Instantiating an Array declared in a class from another class

Hi Guys,
I am working on a project for University and I'm stuck with this thins, which I'm sure is pretty easy when you know how...
I have a first class "Courses" in which I declare my Array, here is the code:
import java.util.*;
public class Courses
private String[][] Listing;
Courses(String[][] l)
   l = Listing;
}This class compiles just fine but I have 2 problems:
1/ Can I make sure that this array will be [3][4] ?
When I try : "private String[3][4] Listing;" or "Courses(String[3][4] l)" the class doesn't compile anymore...
FYI: I want to store the followings in my array:
French Language, 250, 130, 70
Painting, 270, 140, 70
Yoga, 250, 130, 70
2/ How can I instantiate this from another class?
From a class "Booking" I want to be able to create a new array "Listing" by calling my constructor from the Courses class and populate it with the above data (course,full-time price, part-time price, Concessions price )
How do I do that?

Thanks, I've modofied my code as follows:
import java.util.*;
public class Courses
private String[][] Listing = new String[3][4]; //create array 3 rows * 4 columns
Courses(String[][] l)
   l = Listing;
int i;
int j;
int p;
String t;
String p1;
String getTitle(int i) //return Course Title
   t=Listing[0];
return t;
int getPrice(int i, int j) //return Price (Full-Time, Part-Time, Concessions)
p1=Listing[i][j];
p=Integer.parseInt(p1);
return p;
now from my nex class Booking I want to instantiate Courses:
public class Booking
Courses c = new Courses()
}How do I actually pass the data to this...what's the syntax so that my instance will be:
c[0][0]="French Language"
c[0][1]="250"
c[0][2]="130"
c[0][3]="70"
c[1][0]="Painting"
c[1][1]="270"
c[1][2]="140"

c[2][0]="Yoga"
c[2][1]="250"
c[2][2]="130"
c[2][3]="70"

Loading fails, when classes from other packages are referenced

My applet follows a simple package structure.
There's package P1 and there's another package in it P2 (P1.P2)
P1 contains Applet class A.
P2 contains another class C and interface I. C implements I.
A contains a reference of C, which is initialized in the constructor. The use in the constructor of the A (the applet) is something like this
public A () {
          reg = ToolkitRegistry.getEntry (); //where reg is a reference of type ToolkitRegistry.

          i = (I) C.getC (); //where i is a reference of type I.
}Trying to load this applet throws error saying "Package Loading failed". Important is to note that the loading occurs successfully by commenting out this line           i = (I) C.getC (); //where i is a reference of type I. , without any other change.
I understood this to be some problem with the AIDs assigned to both the packages while converting. Unsure of what's the correct way to assign the PIX values, I've been trying some permutation/combinations, it doesn't seem to work.
Has neone already faced this problem & knows the solution? (The specs aren't much help)

One more point ..... I mentioned commenting the statements, I DO NOT commment the other statements referencing the other package. This means that the loading IS succesfull, even when these two lines reside in there.
1. import P1.P2.*; 2. private I i = null;Above two lines pass the loader. The object creation gets stuck.
Wonder if the package references are actually alright, because JVM wud've treated both situations in a similar way. JCVM is ofcourse different but JCVM spec does not say nething abt this situation (rem: everything is public, so the access control restrictions also do not apply)
are there ne instantiation restrictions? [In my case, it's in the constructor thread)
