Hi Anthony,
i have developed a Java class how you said me. I receive the sms, if run application from Eclipse. But if I invoke this class from script .aef not operate. For an simply example i have also created an Notepad example but not open pop up with notepad but also in this case if I run application from Eclipse all correctly function.
Above there is my script and java source for Notepad example.
Have you any suggestion?
***************************************SCRIPT testNOTEPAD.AEF********************************
Start
Do
          testpackage.Notepad AA = new testpackage.Notepad();
End
In console i read this output:
Begin Debugging C:\UCCX_Script_Esempi\TestNotepad.aef...
when i stop debug:
Done Debugging C:\UCCX_Script_Esempi\TestNotepad.aef.
but Nptepad.exe not running
*******************************************JAVA SOURCE ********************************************
package testpackage;
import java.io.*;
public class Notepad {
      public static void Main(String args[]) {
           try {
               Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
               Process pr = rt.exec("notepad.exe");
               BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(pr.getInputStream()));
               String line=null;
               while((line=input.readLine()) != null) {
                   System.out.println(line);
               int exitVal = pr.waitFor();
               System.out.println("Exited with error code "+exitVal);
           } catch(Exception e) {
               System.out.println(e.toString());
               e.printStackTrace();
