Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / register java classes as COM Objects

« on: October 28, 2008, 09:56:45 pm »

Hi all,

I was searching about the topic how java classes can be registered as COM objects to use them from inside EA as plug-in.

I have found the following description:
http://www.codeguru.com/java/tij/tij0195.shtml

The Microsoft JVM provides a methode to  register a simple Java class as COM object with javareg
... but the Microsoft JVM is no longer supportet :-(

Has anybody an idea where I can get a Microsoft JVM?
... or has anybody another idea how to register a Java class as COM object?

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / open a Repository with the Java API

« on: September 15, 2008, 11:30:02 pm »

hi,

I use the eaapi.jar to access the EA repository with Java. I did the configuration as described in the help file:
http://www.sparxsystems.com.au/EAUserGuide/index.html?setup.htm

However, when I try to acces an existing model I always get null for the requested elements. For instance the following code do not deliver a collections for authors and for the models:
         ....
         org.sparx.Repository r = new org.sparx.Repository();
         boolean opened = r.OpenFile("E:\\eaTest.eap");
         Collection<Author> authors = r.GetAuthors();
         Collection<org.sparx.Package> models = r.GetModels();
         ....

Has anyone  a suggestion what I have done wrong?

PS: the eaTest.EAP contains a root package with subpackages and two authors!

thx, horst
