Java Callout on Eclipse Workshop

Guys,
It seems to be impossible to design a Proxy Service that uses a Java Callout on Oracle Workshop for WebLogic Version: 10.3 (Eclipse).
It deppends of a Jar Resouce File. The problem is to make available this jar to Eclipse Workshop. When using the web console it goes fine, but with Workshop it seems to have this limitation.
Does anyone know a workaround?
I have only one, not tested yet. To export the project deployed and import it back to Eclipse. Does anyone knows a better way?

I experienced a similar problem when opening a OSB Project developed by another user. He was using the windows version of Workshop/Eclipse while I used a unix-version.
Opening projects in workshop with error is quite common, so I did not reflect on the error on two of the proxy services that appeared on this one before the regular steps "build/clean..", close and reopen project, close workshop, reinstall workshop etc. did not work at all. Always the same error: Archive resource [my resource] does not exist.
Investigating the error showed that workshop did not manage to find the class needed for the JavaCallout. Even when I opened the JavaCallout action and tried to tell it where to look workshop could not find it.
After starting workshop from the command line shell a root cause appeared as a java.io.IOException: Permission denied.
To shorten the story a bit, it appeared that the java.io.tmpdir was write protected. In fact it was created by root. After a quick sudo, rm -rf /tmp/alsbTempJars and a workshop restart and a build clean I could proceed with development.

ServiceBus java callout - how to pack the JAR file with libraries?

Hello
I want to use a Java Callout from a Service Bus flow.
What is the correct way to pack the JAR file with its nessecary libraries?
I tried different methods to pack my JAR, but yet, as though the Java runs perfectly from the Workshop (Eclipse) , when I am trying to use the exported Jar on the ServiceBus flow, it fails with an ClassNotFoundException.
I would really appreciate your advice here.
Thanks
Koby

Well.. Looking inside my exported JAR file, I got all of the files there inside, including the jar file containing the library.
What I'm trying to do is run a simple java program that connect through SSH and therefore use an SSH library.
On the workshop I got it as an imported library JAR. And it works perfectly there.
Any idea?
Here's the complete error I get:

How to Create a connection pool in OSB java callout

Dear Team,
In our project, we need read some data from DB, and do corresponding operation. currently, we need setup the connection first, execute the SQL, and close the connection.
But the concurrency of call is very high, is there a way to create a connection pool, then we can use the connection pool to get the connection and execute the SQL, then return the connection to the pool.
if connection pool is not available, is there any way to create the connection outside the java callout, that we can just execute the SQL in java callout.
The OSB version is 11.1.1.6.0
Thanks.
Best Regards,
Raysen Jia

Hi Team,
Thanks for your help.
What I need is not only the db connection, may be other kind of things, such as read configuration from file...
If I write the code in java callout with static java method to create and close the connection, each time when request come in, OSB will create a new connection (or read the file), I think it's not the best practice to do this kind of work.
I think the weblogic is running in JVM, is there any way we can define variables or new object in the JVM directly?

Java Callout in OSB failing with null pointer exception

Hi,
We have a requirement where we need to convert XML String to org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.XmlAnyTypeImpl type using java-callout, but value is not getting set when we are trying to do the same. Below is the code we are using in the java callout:
byte [] bArray = xml.getBytes();
InputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(bArray);
Reader reader = new InputStreamReader(is,"UTF-8");
InputSource iss = new InputSource(reader);
iss.setEncoding("utf-8");
xmlNode1 =
DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance().newDocumentBuilder().parse(iss);
XmlAnySimpleType xmlObj = XmlAnySimpleType.Factory.parse(n);
xmlAnyTypeImpl.set_newValue(xmlObj);
Node resNode = xmlAnyTypeImpl.getDomNode();
Can someonce please help for the same.

First check whether the java class that is called is able to read the string message that is passed by the proxy service.

How to Handle Multiple Thread in JAVA Callout with OSB 11g

Hi Team,
With My OSB 11g, I want create a static Thread when Java callout.
Java code as below.
     private static Thread thread;
static {
          * lazy load thread and with thread-safe ensure
          if(thread == null){
               synchronized (HornetQConnectionHelper.class) {
                    thread = new ConnectionRecoveryThread();
                    // Daemon thread, JVM level, Won't be interrupted, Safe!
                    thread.setDaemon(true);
                    thread.start();
When this class was first called in OSB, the thread start run. while when I redeploy it, the old Thread is still running, if call the class again, it will create a new Thread. The two threads will run at the same time.
Any body know how do configure it, so that there is only one static Thread in the Weblogic JVM.
Thanks.

B2B Java Callout Class not found exception

Hello B2B Gurus,
I am facing class not found exception, when trying to call a java code from B2B and below the configuration done from B2B side.
Could you please help me to identify that the configuration done suffice the requirement
1.Created a call out from
Adminstration-- Callout-- Create Callout -- XXJavaCallout(Name of the Java Callout)

3.Agreement--Callout -- XXJavaCallout
Place the jar file in xx/yy/zz UNIX location.
Please let me know if any steps I have missed for using the callout functionality.
Thanks,

Edited by: Dathu Sunil on Mar 29, 2012 8:17 AM

Sunil,
Administration-- Callout Details -- Implementation Class -- XXClassFileNameMake sure that you are giving complete name of the class (without extension .class.). For an example if your class name is Sample and it is in package a.b.c then give class name as a.b.c.Sample
Administration-- Configuration -- Callout Directory -- xx/yy/zz (UNIX server that is accesible from B2B)This must be valid directory existing on machine where B2B is installed.
2.Partners--XX--Delivery Channel -- Select the channel where we need the call out -- Channel Attributes -- Transport Callout -- XXJavaCallout
3.Agreement--Callout -- XXJavaCalloutTransport Callout and Agreement Callouts are used for different purpose. Are you sure that you really need both in your case?

Including library dependency for Java Callout in OSB Proxy

Hi,
I have a simple question for which a simple answer is eluding me:
I have developed a simple Java Callout for us in a proxy message flow and that Java class has a dependency on the Commons IO library but for the life of me I can see how I can ensure the proxy is deployed with the library in the classpath because when I perform a simple publish and test the service I get the exception:
<8/06/2009 10:22:27 AM NZST> <Error> <OSB Transform> <BEA-382515> <Callout to java method "public static void com.oracle.mtm.tools.Archiver.archive(byte[],java.lang.String)" resulted in exception: null

     at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)
     at etc...
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/io/FileUtils
     at etc...
i.e. the Commons IO (e.g. org/apache/commons/io/FileUtils) is not in the classpath.
There must be a simple way of declaring this dependency or something and have the library loaded but I can't find it.
Any help much appreciated!

Well I managed to answer my own question in the end. It's simply a matter of selecting jar dependencies from other jars which can be done by double clicking ("opening") the jar within the OSB Conf project which opens a jar dependencies dialogue box. As expected it's easy when you know how...

2.How to debug my application in Eclipse Europa by putting break points.
3.how should i add Tomcat6.0 to my project in order to debug my application so that i can put break points while running the applications and observe the values.

You may find this tutorial useful regarding to JSF, Eclipse and Tomcat: http://balusc.blogspot.com/2008/01/jsf-tutorial-with-eclipse-and-tomcat.html
To put breakpoints, just doubleclick on the left gray rule of the code, you'll get blue bullets at the left rule, indicating a break point. Run Tomcat in debug modus (rightclick Tomcat � debug). Use the Eclipse debug perspective to step in the code (window � open perspective � debug).

iMovie cannot edit mpg files, unles they come directly from a supported camera.
I would suggest that you use a free third party app to convert it.
Get MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5, which is free.
Drag you mpg clip into MPEG Streamclip.
Then, FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME
Choose Apple Intermediate Codec, and save it where you can find it. You should be able to import this file into iMovie, using the FILE/IMPORT/MOVIE command.
Note: If your file is an MPEG2 clip, you may need to purchase the Apple QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component from Apple. MPEG Streamclip will tell you if you need this. Don't buy it unless you have to. It costs about $20. You just have to install the component. MPEG Streamclip will use it in the background.

ALSB / OSB Java callout to gunzip

We have an input file which is in a gz format, which we need to gunzip before passing onto our business service.
We're writing a simple Java callout component to do this - taking an input stream and returning an output stream.
What variable should I pass into my input stream from the callout in the proxy service message flow?
I've tried $body and $input, but neither of these work.
Thanks in advance

Invoke DBAdapter from Java Callout

Hello,
in OSB I need to invoke a DB-Adapter from a Java Callout. How can I achieve this?
I cound not find any documentation about this (javadoc etc).
Horst

Ideally you should not need to access DB adapter from a Java callout. Use java callout for transformations, get back the transformed data, and call a business service based on DB Adapter.
Alternatively, call java callout and make write code in Java to access DB directly using Weblogic datasource and connection pool.
And if you dont want to do it any other way, create a business service based on the said DB Adapter, create a wrapper proxy(which internally calls the DB adapter based business service) of Any XML type with HTTP transport or even a WSDL based webservice, and call this from your Java code.

ALSB - Java Callout (.jar using commons-httpclient-3.1)

Hello everyone,
I'm having a not so funny problem.
I made a Java class, that will be called by a Proxy Service (Java callout). I'm using the commons.httpclient-3.1.jar (+ codec and logging).
Here's the code:
package util.http;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.*;
public class UtilitaireHTTP {
// method used by the Proxy Service
public static String getLastModified (String url){
return getHeader(url,"last-modified");
private static String getHeader(String url, String header){
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
String lastModified = "404";
HeadMethod head = new HeadMethod(url);
try {
//not working
/*int statusCode = client.executeMethod( head );
if (statusCode == 200){
     lastModified = head.getResponseHeader(header).getValue();
//working
lastModified = "200";
catch(Exception e){
     System.out.println(e);
finally {
// release any connection resources used by the method
head.releaseConnection();
return lastModified;
Here's the problem: Whenever I remove the comment block, test it (it's going to work with JUnit), create a JAR. Import it into ALSB jar resources folder. When I do a Java Callout in a Proxy Service I won't be able to see my method getLastModified. If I put that block in comment, re-do all the export import, I'll see the method in the list.
//not working
/*int statusCode = client.executeMethod( head );
if (statusCode == 200){
     lastModified = head.getResponseHeader(header).getValue();
//working
lastModified = "200";
Anyone knows the solution or problem.
Thank you!
Van

While playing with java callouts i've built working "groovy callout" sample. This way you can keep logic in your alsb proxy service rather than in jar file. Have a look. http://blog.aujava.com/?p=64
