Java API not working

[neole]

I would like to use the JAVA API to read and modify modesl in Enterprise Architect.

SSJavaCOM.dll is located in my PATH as well as the eaapi.jar. Furthermore, I copied SSJavaCOM.dll to System32 and SysWOW64 folder. I use JDK 8 with 32 Bit. I also checked out the code examples provided in the software release of Enterprise Architect.

The following minimal example does not work (neither the provide Java code examples).

final org.sparx.Repository r = new org.sparx.Repository();
r.OpenFile("C:\\test.eap");

I get the following exception:

java.lang.Exception: Failed to construct object. Error code: 0x80004002
   at org.sparx.Repository.comConstructor(Native Method)
   at org.sparx.Repository.<init>(Repository.java:199)

I also tries to run the application as administator.

My environment ist

* Windows 10 Version 1709
* Enterprise Architect 14

Thank you so much for your help

Honestly, if at all possible you better switch to .Net for this.
There is a lot more example code available in C# than there is in Java, and I've seen quite a lot of people struggle with the Java API.

Also you can't make add-ins with Java.
