Help using JAR classes from NetBeans/JRuby/Rails

mohamed_l · January 21, 2009, 12:01pm

Hello and sorry for possible repost,

I am newbie using latest Netbeans, JRuby/Rails… under Netbeans, in a
new Ruby Application, this code works:

require ‘java’
Dir[“jars/*.jar”].each { |jar| require jar };
import ‘iControl.Interfaces’
b=Interfaces.new()

I need to do the same in a Rails app… so I start new Rails project,
and in a controller I do:

require ‘java’
Dir[“lib/jars/*.jar”].each { |jar| require jar };
import ‘iControl.Interfaces’
class SayController < ApplicationController
def hello
b=Interfaces.new()
end
end

This gives error: uninitialized constant SayController::Interfaces

Can someone tell me what’s the proper way to get this working?
Thank you very much.
Mohamed.

A couple things to try.

require ‘java’
Dir[“lib/jars/*.jar”].each { |jar| require jar };

Using relative paths here could be an issue, you might wish to convert
to an expression like Dir[File.join(RAILS_ROOT, “lib”, “jars”) +
“*.jar”] etc.

import ‘iControl.Interfaces’
class SayController < ApplicationController
def hello
b=Interfaces.new()

See if it works as ‘::Interfaces’. Sometimes Rails’ const_missing
dependency mechanism skews the constant lookup rules.

end
end

This gives error: uninitialized constant SayController::Interfaces

Thanks Nick… I tried this code, to no avail:

jars=""
Dir[File.join(RAILS_ROOT, “lib”, “jars”) +"/*.jar"].each { |jar|
jars+=jar+" "}

require ‘java’
Dir[File.join(RAILS_ROOT, “lib”, “jars”) +"/*.jar"].each { |jar| require
jar };
import ‘iControl.Interfaces’

class SayController < ApplicationController
def hello
@cur_dir = Dir.getwd
b=Interfaces.new()
init_result=b.initialize(“10.1.1.245”,443,“admin”,“admin”)
t=b.getSystemSystemInfo()
@bigip_version = t.get_version()
end
end

Using debugging session, I can see the paths are all correct for jar
files… but still hit same error, even using b=::Interfaces.new()

Did you get “uninitialized constant Interfaces” when running with the
::Interfaces version? If not, something’s not right.

Can you get the interfaces constant to load in a script/console session?

With ::Interfaces.new() I get:

uninitialized constant Interfaces

With Interfaces.new() I get:

uninitialized constant SayController::Interfaces

Under IRB, inside NetBeans, this works:

require ‘java’
=> false

Dir[“lib/jars/*.jar”].each { |jar| require jar }
=> [“lib/jars/axis.jar”, “lib/jars/commons-discovery-0.2.jar”,
“lib/jars/commons-logging-1.0.4.jar”, “lib/jars/iControl.jar”,
“lib/jars/jaxrpc.jar”, “lib/jars/mailapi.jar”,
“lib/jars/wsdl4j-1.5.1.jar”]

import ‘iControl.Interfaces’
=> [“iControl.Interfaces”]

b=Interfaces.new()
=> #<Java::IControl::Interfaces:0x44091520
@java_object=iControl.Interfaces@304a0ac5>

But IRB does not load in the context of Rails, right?

No, but that’s why I suggested using script/console, because it loads
Rails in the IRB environment. Maybe something Rails is loading is
messing with your load path or environment.

You’re right Nick, something is not right under Rails, please see

Thanks a lot.
