Errors Creating Java Stub for COM Object

[JR__Bob__Dobbs-qSBHQ2]

I have a .NET assembly that I have exposed through COM. I am able to use the object with cfobject. I would like to create a java stub for ColdFusion 7. I have used the com2java tool to create the .java files from the .tlb for the com object, but am recieving error messages when I try to compile them.

Command used: javac -J-mx100m -J-ms100m *.java -classpath C:\CFusionMX7\lib\jintegra.jar

_ConnectProxy.java:26: illegal start of expression
static { .JIntegraInit.init(); }
^
IeConnectHelperProxy.java:26: illegal start of expression
static { .JIntegraInit.init(); }
^
2 errors

My platform is Windows 2003, ColdFusion 7.02

Any help is appreciated.

Did you ever get an answer to this? I'm having the same issue.

I have not resolved this issue. I have worked around it by using an ASP.NET web service to expose the .NET assembly.

I was able to get past this step by editing the Java files referenced in the error message and removing the period in front of .JintegraInit.init() such that:

static { .JIntegraInit.init(); }
becomes:
static { JIntegraInit.init(); }

I have not completed a COM to Java conversion successfully though the error above did keep me stopped for a while.

I'm trying to work around the following error when intantiating a COM object: "The cause of this exception was that: AutomationException: 0x800a000d - Type mismatch." but have had no luck.

Too bad... that's the backup plan I'm looking at. I'll let you know if I find an answer. Has the performance on the web service been good?

Its not great but it's acceptable, your opinion may vary.
