php-java-bridge-users Mailing List for PHP/Java Bridge

My fault, sorry.  The jxl documentation states that the createWorkbook()
method is in jxl.Workbook, not in jxl.write.Workbook or
jxl.write.WritableWorkbook which I have inferred from its name.

Attached is a testjxl.php which will work.


Regarding the null pointer exception, please read that as a "class not
found exception".  It's actually a bug in the bridge 1.0.6a private
classloader which is trying to access a null java_library_path.  I will
change that null pointer to a proper "class not found exception" in the
upcoming version 1.0.7.  Thank you for reporting this problem.  Here's
the relevant log from /var/log/php-java-bridge.log:

try to load class jxl.write.WritableWorkbook from
jar:file:/usr/share/java/jdom.jar!/
java.lang.NullPointerException

        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:568)


BTW: The new PHP 5 engine allows introspection, so when the bridge
supports PHP 5, it will be possible to look inside a class and to
interactively pick a certain method or property of a class.
