WLI Client

Question

Need a java client which can access the WLI workflow. Tried using the WLPI class but I am unable to login using the GUI. I am alos unable to look up the EJBs as the JNDI names are not bound. Any pointers on how to lookup the EJBs and access the workflow ?
Thanks,

Answer 1

below is some code to use WLI from a client. this is on version 7.
make sure to use the right user name and password. depending on the
configuration, a different user might be configured for the weblogic
server (wls) admin, and the weblogic integration (wli) admin. in the
integration samples server, the admin user is both the wls and wli admin
user and defaults to admin, security.
you should be able to lookup the beans described in
http://e-docs.bea.com/wli/docs70/devclient/import.htm#1025696
note that the jndi names are not the class names...i think i had to look
at the deployment descriptors to find them.
if you post your error it might help.
Properties p = new Properties();
p.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory");
p.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "t3://appserver:7001");
p.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "admin");
p.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "security");
Context ctx = null;
Admin admin = null;
WLPIPrincipal wlpiPrincipal = null;
try {
ctx = new InitialContext(p);
AdminHome adminHome = (AdminHome)ctx.lookup("com.bea.wlpi.Admin");
admin = adminHome.create();
WLPIPrincipalHome wlpiPrincipalHome =
(WLPIPrincipalHome)ctx.lookup("com.bea.wlpi.WLPIPrincipal");
wlpiPrincipal = wlpiPrincipalHome.create();
} catch(Exception ex){
ex.printStackTrace();
} finally {
// remember to remove them when done
try{ admin.remove(); } catch(Exception ex){}
try{ wlpiPrincipal.remove(); } catch(Exception ex){}
try{ ctx.close(); }catch(Exception ex){}
