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

Hi,

the PHP/Java Bridge, as the successor of that module, separates the Java and PHP sides; which is
precisely the reason why the PHP/Java Bridge does work, and the original PHP module doesn't.

We could give you instructions how to start a simple JVM. However, as soon as you need to access
standard libraries, you'll need a standard servlet engine, anyway.

So we've decided to not waste your (and our) time by not providing any non-standard bindings.

Dear Mr. Boekemeier,

is there no simple solution for combining the apache(without tomcat),
the javabridge and in phpfiles embedded javacode???
(And without using the in php integrated javamodule, which actually
doesn't work :o) )

I can't imagine that the only way is to use that tomcat application...

My java knowledge is very poor, but I'm able to use google :o) and I
think I'm not that stupid, so if you can give some hints, how to get
this bridge working, I could be able to get the rest on my own
(perhaps!!!)

Previous installation used a copy command (Copy java-x86-windows.dll
from the JavaBridge.war to C:\PHP\ext), but version 3.2.1 was used, and
there the"java-x86-windows.dll" file exists. In all of the versions
which could be downloaded at sourceforge, this file is no longer
existing...

I want to use birt, that's why I'm trying to use that bridge...

Greetings,
Matthias

there are certainly other ways to run a Java VM. -- In fact you can even write your own server, if
you don't like one of the existing containers.

But if you have no experience with Java, I suggest to install Tomcat or any other J2EE server to
run Java.

Hi there,

Thanks again fort he quick answering...


1.) Install tomcat.

--> I'd like to use it without tomcat, I think you said, this would be
possible, right?

And that's my problem, cause I don't use tomcat, I have no autodeploy
folder... ;o)

Am I the only person, wanting to use it without tomcat???

I'm confused... ;o)

Hi,


> I'm total new in this sector and don't know anything about java... :o(

a Java servlet engine or J2EE application server define an operating environment which allows 
one to run Java (web-) applications. The JavaBridge.war is such an application.

The php-java-bridge download archive contains a JavaBridge.war, which is a standard Java (web-)
application.

In order to access Java libraries from within Apache or PHP CLI (standalone), you need to run
Java somewhere. The easiest way to do this is to install a J2EE server or servlet engine and to
copy JavaBridge.war into its autodeploy folder.

1.) Install tomcat.

2.) Deploy JavaBridge.war

3.) Copy the created JavaBridge folder to C:\WWW

Dear Mr. Boekemeier,

Ok, that sounds fine :o)
I'think the problem is not the bridge itself, it's me who's the one...
*smile*

I'm total new in this sector and don't know anything about java... :o(

I don't know whar you mean by
"All you need to do is to copy the JavaBridge directory created from the
J2EE server or servlet engine to the Apache htdocs directory "
JavaBridge directory created from the J2EE server? Which one, is it in
the compressed downloadable folder, or do I have to install it on my
own???

My local system:
Win XP
Apache 2.0.59 (C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2)
PHP 5.1.6 (C:\php)
An WWW-Folder for the files (C:\WWW)

And I downloaded all the bridges which are available on sourceforge.net
(Version 4.1.8 --> 5.1.2)

So what do I have to do next???

THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR PATIENCE!!!!

If the bridge is working I write a documentation in English (and German)
for those who have the same problems, I guess, that won't be to much
people, but if just one is searching and helped, it was worthwhile...
:o)

Sorry for my "stupid" questions, but the one who's not asking, is the
one who can't win... *smile*

Hi,

> My Problem is, I don't want to use tomcat, 

Well, you can use any servlet engine or J2EE server to run Java.


> I thought I'm able to use the Javabridge just with apache

Yes. All you need to do is to copy the JavaBridge directory created from the J2EE server
or servlet engine to the Apache htdocs directory.


> problem, but as already said, I have to use it without... :o)

I don't see any way to run Java libraries without actually running Java... That said, the Linux
binaries have been compiled to native code, they don't use any Java.

But IF you want to use Java, you don't have a choice; you need to start the Java VM.

Hi,

if you follow the documentation, you won't get this error. Again, this problem happens because you
have started some application on port 8081.

If you still have problems with the PHP/Java Bridge or with the documentation, please open a
problem report, please use http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=117793&atid=679233.

Good Morning,

Thanks for your answer, Mr. Boekemeier.
Yes, I' read that one, too... :o)

My Problem is, I don't want to use tomcat, I thought I'm able to use the
Javabridge just with apache, too... Right?

No, installing the bridge in combination with tomcat should be no
problem, but as already said, I have to use it without... :o)

Is there any possiblitity?

Greeting from Germany,
Matthias

According to the last mail. The exception was by an application listening on port 8081. That application is JavaBridge.rar.  The INSTALL.J2SE document describes how to call a php function from java but I need to call java function from PHP which is described in INSTALL.STANDALONE.  I need that to be working.

This is the desciption in the document (INSTALL.STANDALONE). The bolted text is what i want to achieve. Hope I was clear this time.


* Extract the JavaBridge.jar library from JavaBridge.war, for example
  with the command:

   java -classpath JavaBridge.war TestInstallation
   
* Add the following 3 lines to the main class of your non-J2EE
application:

     public static final String JAVABRIDGE_PORT="8087";
     static final php.java.bridge.JavaBridgeRunner runner = 
       php.java.bridge.JavaBridgeRunner.getRequiredInstance(JAVABRIDGE_PORT);
     
* Add JavaBridge.jar to the main library of you non-J2EE
application. This can be done by adding the following line to your
application's META-INF/MANIFEST.MF:
  
    Class-Path: JavaBridge.jar

It is also possible to simply merge all files into your non-J2EE
application..
  
* Start your non-J2EE application.


Call your Java methods from PHP
-------------------------------

* Use the following code to call methods:

    <?php require_once("http://localhost:8087/JavaBridge/java/Java.inc");    $myClass = new java("com.my.non.j2ee.application.MyClass");    $myClass->myMethod(...);
