I am writting a java program that will be launched automatically from an automatic activity.
I that program I should now that I am in that activity and show it in dialog box.
Do I need to query _ACTIVITY from the process ? And how to get the uuid of the activity ?
Thank you once again.
Best regards |

I don't think I have got ur question correctly.
But if ur trying to get the name of the activity for which this Java application has run, u can do the folowing.
Is there some container field which uniquely identifies ur workitem, if there is, set it in the Description field of Activity.....
Set that field as the Java application parameter i.e args[0] for the application.
Next , with the workitem in hand, I am sure there is an API to get the activityName....i.e workitem.activityName() or something |

You need to be much more specific.
You are going to launch a program from an automatic activity? How? Is this a UPES?
Your other questions are all based on the answers to the above.

Thank you.
It is a PEA.
A batch file that is in program property.
But there is an other question please; how to get the programID during the execution time of that automatic activity?
When trying to get the programID, workflow throws an exception and stops : NOT AUTHORIZED.
here is a piece of code :
Agent agent = new Agent();
try
{
agent.setLocator(Agent.LOC_LOCATOR);
}
catch (PropertyVetoException e1)
{
e1.printStackTrace();
}
try
{
agent.setName("agent");
}
catch (PropertyVetoException e1)
{
e1.printStackTrace();
}
System.out.println("1");
ExecutionService service = agent.locate("", "");
service.passthrough();
eAgent = agent.getExecutionAgent();
inContainer = eAgent.inContainer();
programId = eAgent.programID();//<----this is generating the NOT
//AUTHORIZED ERROR OR EXCEPTION.
thank you, all of you. |

Two things:
1. You can directly invoke a java program by workflow if you set the setting right on the program.
2. What is programID? What are you expecting? At the point where you are getting the error, you are in the java program called by ProgramID.
If you are talking about ACTIVITY, then you should be able to get it from the container.
The following is the code from the sample ActImpl supplied along with the product.
| Code: |
Agent agent = new Agent( );
agent.setLocator( Agent.LOC_LOCATOR );
agent.setName( "LOCAL" );
ExecutionAgent pea = agent.getExecutionAgent( );
if ( pea != null )
{
// get the input- and output container
ReadOnlyContainer input = pea.inContainer( );
ReadWriteContainer output = pea.outContainer( );
// display all input container members
System.out.println( "Input Container:" );
DisplayContainer( input );
// copy the data members from the input- to the output container
CopyContainer( input, output );
output.setLong("_RC", 0);
// display all output container members
System.out.println( "Output Container:" );
DisplayContainer( output );
// return the output container to the PEA
pea.setOutContainer( output );
