Is it possible to call methods of JAVA objects from ABAP?

Hi all,
Does anyone know if it is possible to call methods of java classes from ABAP?
Regards,
Sukru

Hi,
Yes we can access the classes of JAVA in ABP.
This is posible from version ECC 6 onward with NETWEAVER atrhcitecuture.
Pls go through this link-

Here also we use the JCO connector objects
These clearly show the methods to use JAVA.

Is it possible to call methods from another class from within an abstract c

Is it possible to call methods from another class from within an abstract class ?

I found an example in teh JDK 131 JFC that may help you. I t is using swing interface and JTable
If you can not use Swing, then you may want to do digging or try out with the idea presented here in example 3
Notice that one should refine the abstract table model and you may want to create a method for something like
public Object getValuesAtRow(int row) { return data[row;}
to give the desired row and leave the method for
getValuesAt alone for getting valued of particaular row and column.
So Once you got the seelcted row index, idxSelctd, from your table
you can get the row or set the row in your table model
public TableExample3() {
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Table");
frame.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {System.exit(0);}});
// Take the dummy data from SwingSet.
final String[] names = {"First Name", "Last Name", "Favorite Color",
"Favorite Number", "Vegetarian"};
final Object[][] data = {
     {"Mark", "Andrews", "Red", new Integer(2), new Boolean(true)},
     {"Tom", "Ball", "Blue", new Integer(99), new Boolean(false)},
     {"Alan", "Chung", "Green", new Integer(838), new Boolean(false)},
     {"Jeff", "Dinkins", "Turquois", new Integer(8), new Boolean(true)},
     {"Amy", "Fowler", "Yellow", new Integer(3), new Boolean(false)},
     {"Brian", "Gerhold", "Green", new Integer(0), new Boolean(false)},

     {"Kathy", "Walrath", "Blue", new Integer(8), new Boolean(false)},
     {"Arnaud", "Weber", "Green", new Integer(44), new Boolean(false)}
// Create a model of the data.

Calling a method in BPM Object from jsf page

Hi All,
How do I call a method in BPM object from JSF page? Is it possible to invoke it in a manner similar to invoking a method from managed bean in JSF application?
Please help.
Thanks and Regards,
Veronica

You can use f:invoke (or f:invokea to with parameters)
For ajax calls, you can use f:invokeUrl to get the URL to a particular method within your BPM object, although make sure the Server-Side Method property is set to Yes.

This depends on the version of your Netweaver Java AS. If you are running 7.0, you will have to use the Jco framework. The Jco framework is deprecated since 7.1 though. If you want to build a RFC server in 7.1 or higher, it is adviced that you set it up through JRA.
Implement an RFC server in 7.0:

Calling Custom XSLT java class from BPEL in SOA Suite 11g

Hi All,
Morning...need some help with this issue...we are currently on SOA Suite 11g (11.1.1.4) version.
Earlier while we were on SOA Suite version 10g (10.1.3.3) we were calling the custom java classes from the xsl mapping for complex transformation and for this we were placing the .class file as .jar file at the location mentioned here $OC4J_HOME/j2ee/home/applib directory and then mentioning the namespace as http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/{$classname$} in the XSLT mapping file.
Now in SOA Suite 11g if we need to retain similar functionality for external custom java calls could someone please help us where do we need to put the .jar file now ..
exactly at which directory location/path and on which instance/server (application server instance or middle tier instance ) we need to put this .jar file
Currently we are stuck and need some help with this.
With thanks & Regards

Hi Eric & Anuj,
Thanks for replying , sorry for checking on this now...
here at this path /opt101/app/oracle/SOAD/SOA11gR1/fmw/Oracle_SOA1/soa/modules/oracle.soa.ext_11.1.1
we got the ora.soa.ext.jar file and extracted it to get the MANIFEST.mf file ..have mentioned below.
Now if we need to link our custom .jar file named customfunctions.jar so we need to mention it as below is this correct :
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.7.1
Created-By: 17.0-b17 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
Implementation-Vendor: Oracle
Implementation-Title: Oracle SOA EXT
Implementation-Version: 11.1.1
Product-Name: Oracle SOA EXT
Product-Version: 11.1.1.4.0
Specification-Version: 11.1.1
Extension-Name: oracle.soa.ext
Class-Path: classes/
Class-Path:customfunctions.jar classes/ -- is this the way to mention (means we need to add this additional line or we need to add to the existing line at Class-Path: classes/)
2.
Eric the Alternative method mentioned in your update :
Open a command prompt and change the current directory to the oracle.soa.ext_11.1.1 directory ,
then execute the build.xml file in the oracle.soa.ext_11.1.1 folder using Ant
Now could someone please guide us regards this ANT means how does it work and its relation to the build.xml file and how do we check whether we have ANT utility available or not..
not much conversant with this ANT hence asking here..would lookout for your reply
thank you

Can I Call method on one JVM from another through a dll?

Let me explain.
I have this java jar file that I can only have one instance of running at any given time. I'm using a shared data segment in a dll to store a bool indicating whether the program is already running or not. If it's already running, I have to not run the second instance and give focus to the current running instance.
The jar file calls a native method "canInstantiate()" on a dll to see if there's already an app running. If there isn't, the env and obj are stored in the shared data segment of the dll and we return true. If there is already an instance of the program running, I want canInstantiate call a function on the current instance of the jar (like a callback) to tell it to request focus. It's not working. Can someone tell me if my code is right?
The .h file
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <jni.h>
#include "CardServer.h"
#pragma data_seg("SHARED") // Begin the shared data segment.
static volatile bool instanceExists = false;
static JavaVM *theJavaVM = NULL;
static JNIEnv* theJavaEnv= NULL;
static jobject instanceObject = NULL;
static jmethodID mid = NULL;
static jclass cls = NULL;
#pragma data_seg()
#pragma comment(linker, "/section:SHARED,RWS")
jdouble canInstantiate(JNIEnv *env, jobject obj);
jdouble instantiate(JNIEnv *env, jobject obj);
jdouble uninstantiate(JNIEnv *env, jobject obj);
void grabFocus();
</code>
The .cpp file:
<code>
#include "MyFunctions.h"
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream.h>
jdouble canInstantiate(JNIEnv *env, jobject obj)
printf("In canInstantiate!!");
if (!instanceExists)
printf("No instance exists!!");
return (jdouble)0.0;
else
printf("An instance already exists!!");
grabFocus();
return (jdouble)1.0;
jdouble instantiate(JNIEnv *env, jobject obj)
printf("**In CPP: Instantiate!!\n");
cout << "At start, env is: " << env << endl;
cout << "At start, obj is: " << obj << endl;
if (instanceExists == false)
instanceExists = true;
theJavaEnv = env;
instanceObject = obj;
theJavaEnv->GetJavaVM(&theJavaVM);
cls = (theJavaEnv)->FindClass("TheMainClassOfTheJar");
if (cls == 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "Can't find Prog class\n");
exit(1);
mid = (theJavaEnv)->GetMethodID(cls, "grabFocusInJava", "(I)I");
if (mid == 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "Can't find grabFocusInJava\n");
exit(1);
printf("About to call grabFocusInJava\n");
grabFocus();
printf("CPP: After the grab focus command in instantiate!!\n");
cout << "At end, env is: " << env << endl;
cout << "At end, obj is: " << obj << endl;
return 0.0;
else
printf("CPP: Finished Instantiate!!\n");
return 1.0;
jdouble uninstantiate(JNIEnv *env, jobject obj)
printf("CPP: In uninstantiate!!\n");
if (instanceExists == true)
instanceExists = false;
theJavaVM = NULL;
instanceObject = NULL;
printf("CPP: Finishing uninstantiate!!\n");
return 0.0;
else
printf("CPP: Finishing uninstantiate!!\n");
return 1.0;
void grabFocus()
printf("In CPP::GrabFocus!!\n");
instanceObject = theJavaEnv->NewGlobalRef(instanceObject);
cls = (theJavaEnv)->FindClass("CardFormatter");
if (cls == 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "Can't find Prog class\n");
exit(1);
printf("Got the cls id again!!\n");
if (cls == 0)
printf("IT'S INVALID!!\n");
mid = (theJavaEnv)->GetMethodID(cls, "grabFocusInJava", "(I)I");
if (mid == 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "Can't find grabFocusInJava\n");
exit(1);
theJavaEnv->CallIntMethod(instanceObject, mid, 2);
printf("Called grabFocusInJava\n");
</code>
thanks in advance

Can I Call method on one JVM from another through a dll
...The rest of your question merely expands on your title.
And the answer to that question is no.
When you call a method you are executing a "thread of execution." A thread of execution exists only in a single process. It can not exist in another process.
If the dll is doing some interesting things then you could call a method that sets a flag. Data can move between instances. But you would then have to have a thread in that different process monitoring that flag. And sharing data in a dll is not a normal process, so it would have to be coded appropriately.
If all you want to do is set the current focus to the existing application, then that can be done with existing windows functionality. You don't need to do anything special in your dll. You can probably search these forums to find the exact code. If not there are countless examples in windows repositories (like MSDN) on how to do that.

HT5071 Is it possible to call a locally installed ibook from a hyperlink? What about to a bookmark?

Is it possible to call a locally installed ibook from a hyperlink? What about to a bookmarked page?
I have 2 questions..
1. Can I send a link via email that when launched will open an ibook that has already been downloaded to the bookshelf?
2. If question 1 is possible, can I take it a step further and call a bookmark, i.e. chapter 3.
Our company has it's own appstore and I want to send out links to sections of the ibooks using bookmarks or at the very least take them to the start of the ibook.
I don't need to give them a link to install the ibook as they already have it installed.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Chris.

That would be cool, but it's not possible. The ibook is not accessible by URL in the user's bookshelf.

How can I call a java object from Web dynpro ABAP application?

For certain business purpose, we need to call external 3rd party java object using 3rd party's java api in Web dynpro application.
Is there anybody who experienced this kind of java interface issue?
I know Web dynpro Java environment can fully support this kind of requirement. but regarding Web dynpro ABAP, I couldn't find any clue for this.
Any comment or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Error while calling java program from ABAP

Hi Experts,
We are trying for RFC inbound scenario.
We followed the below blog
/people/gregor.wolf3/blog/2004/08/26/setup-and-test-sap-java-connector-outbound-connection
We are working with SAP JCO 3.0.2
We are getting the error : 'STFC_CONNECTION' could not be found in the server repository.
After I run the Java server program if I execute the RFC destination directly from SM 59 it is showing successful messages.
If I stop the java program then this RFC is failing. Based on this we concluded that RFC to Java connection is working fine.
But as mentioned in blog if we call the RFC Destination from ABAP program it is giving the below error,
'STFC_CONNECTION' could not be found in the server repository.
If we test the RFC destination using RFC_TRUSTED_CHECK standard FM we are getting the below error.
'RFCPING' could not be found in the server repository.
We create the RFC destination of Type : TCP/IP as exactly mention in the blog.
Please help us in resolving this issue.
Thanks
Prince

Calling Java API from ABAP using JCo (Part 2)

Hello,
This is an additional question to thread Calling Java API from ABAP using JCo
Has anyone managed to get the input parameter value
input.getString("REQUTEXT")
that is being passed from ABAP?
If yes, what kind of setting you need to do? Because when I execute, it has no value.
Thus, the below ECHOTEXT parameter returns blank value:
output.setValue(input.getString("REQUTEXT"),"ECHOTEXT");
When I debug by printing the below line, the input XML is indeed without value:
System.out.println(input.toXML());
Anybody knows how to pass input variable from ABAP to JAVA using JCo?
rgs,
hiroshi

Hallo Hiroshi,
as far as I can see, you are doing it the right way. The problem might be that the ABAP program does not fill in this parameter because something went wrong in the SAP System.
Have you tried setting a breakpoint (an HTTP session - remote breakpoint) and tried checking step by step if the value is being processed and put into the REQUTEXT field?
Bye,
Sameer
