J-Link and Creo 1 - max. 6 or 7 jlink tools possible??

Hi,



I'm testing Creo 1 on a 64-bit Win XP PC with the latest 64-bit java.


I edited the 9 java tools we have so that they work on the new ribbon UI, and I got all that working (with the new the Designate command).


BUT... as soon as Iload more than 6java tools, I get an error like:


! Message Dialog: Warning
! : Startup of application "BuildAssyFromTextFile" failed.


The java tool mentioned in the error message is always the first one mentioned in config.pro; all following tools load nicely. I tried at least 100 combinations of java tools, and all java tools work untill I load more than 6 of them.


When I made thetools in WF4,I already discovered that the names of the help- and messagetexts have to be unique, so I made sure that there are no naming conflicts there.


For clarity: each java tool is called by these 2 lines in config.pro:


add_java_class_path K:\Csn\Creo\J_Link\Creo_1_0\CreoFindSurfaceModels\build\classes
toolkit_registry_file K:\Csn\Creo\J_Link\Creo_1_0\CreoFindSurfaceModels\build\classes\protk.dat


Anyone has a clue what can be wrong??


As said, all tools work nicely, unless there's more than 6 of them...


Thanks, regards, Jaap

Hi Jaap,
I ran into this as well. PTC seems to have introduced a limit of the string length for the add_java_class config.pro option.
My workaround was to move all classpath definitions from config.pro to .psf in the ../parametric/bin folder.
ENV=CLASSPATH+=%PRO_DIRECTORY_JLINK%\dom4j-1.6.1.jar
ENV=CLASSPATH+=%PRO_DIRECTORY_JLINK%\poi-3.8-20120326.jar
ENV=CLASSPATH+=%PRO_DIRECTORY_JLINK%\poi-ooxml-3.8-20120326.jar
ENV=CLASSPATH+=%PRO_DIRECTORY_JLINK%\poi-ooxml-schemas-3.8-20120326.jar
ENV=CLASSPATH+=%PRO_DIRECTORY_JLINK%\xmlbeans-2.3.0.jar

Hi Bjarne,


wow, it works!! Thanks so much!!


Now this is really something I wouldn't have found out myself... although it makes sense now, because there was this one combination of 7 (instead of 6) java tools that worked. Probably the 7 tools with the shortest pathnames 🙂


Kind regards, Jaap
