Add support for Asynchronous applications with Creo Object Toolkit Java (Java OTK)

Add support for Asynchronous applications with Creo Object Toolkit Java (Java OTK)

Only Synchronous applications are currently supported in Java OTK. Otk.jar does not have the required libraries to run Asynchronous applications.

This is a step backwards from Java OTK Free (J-Link), which is free and allows both Synchronous and Asynchronous applications.

I think that the OTK Java should support Asynchronous applications. The free JLINK API has always supported Asynchronous applications. Some applications can not be Synchronous as designed. Please allow OTK Java be supported for the Asynchronous API. The work around is now to develop an Asynchronous application starting CREO and then calling a Synchronous application upon the CREO startup. This solution makes it more difficult to debug the Synchronous application because now we are forced to use remote debugging. Although, this solution is the recommended way for developing  Asynchronous applications to call a Synchronous application for performance reasons but the debugging is more complex. 

 

Please support the Asynchronous API for OTK Java.
