Java

The CallAPI can be used to process scripts in the AE system from your own Java programs.

This requires the class UCCALL3 to be imported from the package com.uc4.uccall3.

The delivery directory contains sample programs that provide a detailed description of how a script activation can be implemented.

Detailed information about the Java class is provided in the included documentation.

Scripts are always activated with the following steps:

You can log on to several AE systems at the same time and process various scripts. In this case, a Dialog license is used for each connection.

In your program, you can use the functions listed below.

Description	Data type of return code	Function
Logging on to the AE system	boolean	logon() logon(client, user, [departmentDepartment name to which the Automation Engine user belongs., [passwordA secret combination of characters for a Automation Engine user.]]) logon(specifications) Data type of client: int Data type of user: java.lang.String Data type of department: java.lang.String Data type of password: java.lang.String Data type of specifications: java.util.Properties The Java class "Properties" is used for specifications to be made. The following parameters can be configured: "system" - name of the AE system to which a connection should be established "language" - message language "timeout" - period in seconds during which the CallAPI waits for an AE system response "client" - client "user" - user "dept" - department "pass" - password "cpn_host" - DNS name or TCP/IP address of the computer on which the communication process runs "cpn_port" - port number of the communication process
Retrieving a connection error	java.lang.String	getConnectionError()
Specifying INI file	void	setConfigurationFile(path and name of INI file) Data type of script: java.lang.String
Activating a script	java.lang.String	activateScript(script) Data type of script: java.lang.String
Retrieving the RunID of the last activated script	int	getRunNumber()
