Startup of application failed - otk_java_appl CREO 7.0

[hamzawaseem]

Hi,

I am trying to work with CREO Object Toolkit Java, there are few sample apps such as "InstallTest" and a User Guide, I followed the User Guide but still unable to run java apps, I get this error when starting any auxiliary application, "Startup of application failed".  My version is 7.0. Can anyone help me?

Thanks,
Hamza

Try typing "startup failed" in the "Search all content" window at the top right of the page you're viewing this on. Lots of results there, since this question is an oft-repeated one. Likely something to do with not having the JRE installed or your path specification being incomplete or wrong, I guess. I'm not doing any J-Link stuff with Creo, so I can't help with specifics.

Could it be a missing license for JOTK?

I am not sure you can develop JOTK without one.

Hi,

1.]

Install Creo Parametric 7.0.2.0 ... do not forget install item containing Java OTK and J-Link.

2.]

Install 64bit version of Java ... JDK and JRE

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html 

3.]

Compile "InstallTest" ... see my following batch file

@echo off

set CLASSPATH=E:\PTC\Creo7_020_Jlink\Creo 7.0.2.0\Common Files\text\java\otk.jar;%CLASSPATH%
set CLASSPATH=E:\PTC\Creo7_020_Jlink\Creo 7.0.2.0\Common Files\text\java\pfcasync.jar;%CLASSPATH%
echo CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%

del *.jar

del *.class

del trail.txt.*

D:\programy\jdk1.8.0_271\bin\javac.exe *.java

D:\programy\jdk1.8.0_271\bin\jar.exe cvf mh.jar *.class

pause

4.]

Add following option into config.pro file, for example

jlink_java_command D:\programy\jre1.8.0_271_64bit\bin\java.exe

5.]

Start Creo and run application.
