I am automating a forms application using java driver marathon. I can launch the application from the automation code and navigate to following the blocked screen.
There is a table where I want to read the data, I have the decompiled java code with me.
This method returns the focused row successfully.
driver.findElement(By.name("ListView229")).getAttribute("getFocusedRow");
getFocusedRow is a java method I can call it like above.
Now I want to call the =>
public final String getCellData(int paramInt1, int paramInt2)
driver.findElement(By.name("ListView229")).getAttribute("getCellData(1,0)";
I used the above code but returns null, I can call the java methods which does not have parameters.
How I can call the java methods which have parameters?
You need to use driver.execute_script to call the getters that require parameters. The following should work:
WebElement e = driver.findElement(By.name("ListView229"));
String s = driver.executeScript("return $1.getCellData(1, 0);", e);

By following the Java Quickstart example, I am able to create a new Google App Script project and retrieve the scriptId. Also, by referring to the Restful API document, the script should be able to be executed using Method: scripts.run. However, I don't know how to retrieve the return value using com.google.api.services.script.Script in Java.
I've tried:
Script scriptService = getScriptService();
Script.Scripts scripts = scriptService.scripts();
Script.Scripts.Run run = scripts.run(scriptId, request);
and decompiled run function:
public Script.Scripts.Run run(String var1, ExecutionRequest var2) throws IOException {
Script.Scripts.Run var3 = new Script.Scripts.Run(var1, var2);
Script.this.initialize(var3);
return var3;
}
The function doesn't return an ExecutionResponse object which I am looking for.
Per the REST API documentation, calling script.run does not immediately return an ExecutionResponse object, but an Operation object that may contain an ExecutionResponse:
{
"done": boolean,
// Union field result can be only one of the following:
"error": {
object(Status)
},
"response": object(ExecutionResponse)
,
// End of list of possible types for union field result.
}
If we look at the Java API Client library, we see that method Script.Script.run takes arguments of the script ID, and an ExecutionRequest, and then returns a Script.Script.Run request that must be .execute()d:
Create a request for the method "scripts.run". This request holds the parameters needed by the script server. After setting any optional parameters, call the AbstractGoogleClientRequest.execute() method to invoke the remote operation.
The request referred to by the quoted documentation is Script.Script.Run, and has methods like .setAccessToken() for additional configuration, and several execution methods like .execute() and .executeMedia() to actually submit the execution request and return the Operation.
I'm writing an app that loads javascript dynamically using rhino(or a browser); I got 2 files:
// in a file called fooDefinition.js
var definition = {
foo: function(data){return bar(data)},
loadFile: "barLib.js"
}
now, bar() is defined like this:
// in a file called barLib.js
function bar(data){
return data + " -> bar!";
}
This is what I want to do:
load fooDefinition.js into the environment
read the value of loadFile (in this case: "barLib.js") and load the file (NOTE: load the file through external mechanism, not through javascript itself!)
call foo
external mechanism & example usage (Java pseudo code):
// assume engine is a statefull engine (rhino for example)
String str = /*content of fooDefinition.js*/;
engine.eval(str);
String fileToLoad = engine.eval("definition.loadFile");
engine.load(IOUtils.readFileToString(new File(fileToLoad)));
String result = engine.eval("definition.foo('myData')");
I've tried this in Google Chrome's JS console and no error was thrown
I wonder is this the correct way of accomplish such task?
TL;DR:
Are the attributes of an object loaded and checked when the object is defined?
If your engine is statefull that is it keeps track of defined variables, yes your approach is corrent and will work as expected
But if it is not, your way will fail, because when you call the following
String fileToLoad = engine.eval("definition.loadFile");
your engine haven't any info about definition object and as a result it return an exception (in JavaScript).
It seems your engine is statefull and all things will work correctly
How do I call a Java method from Javascript? I tried the following
http://www.gwtproject.org/doc/latest/DevGuideCodingBasicsJSNI.html#calling
But it is not working. I can't put the JS into Java file because the library uses a callback. In my App.html file:
function pickerCallback(data) {
var doc = data[google.picker.Response.DOCUMENTS][0];
var name= doc[google.picker.Document.NAME];
var fileId = data.docs[0].id;
// set the path text field
//[instance-expr.]#class-name::field-name
//[instance-expr.]#class-name::method-name(param-signature)(arguments)
// Call static method
//#com.onix.sdm.client.SDM_Mailer::setSelectedFolder(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)(name, fileId);
$entry(#com.onix.sdm.client.SDM_Mailer::setSelectedFolder(name, fileId));
}
In SDM_Mailer.java:
private static void setSelectedFolder(String folder, String id) {
SDM_Mailer myThis = SDM_Mailer.getInstance();
myThis.textFolder.setText(folder);
myThis.folderId = id;
}
When I load the app, in gives this error in the browser console:
Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token ILLEGAL
On this line:
$entry(#com.onix.sdm.client.SDM_Mailer::setSelectedFolder(name, fileId));
I also tried the line immediately before that (commented for now), which also gave the same error.
I can't put the JS into Java file because the library uses a callback
That's by design - the purpose of this syntax is not to expose methods where they can be called by external JS, but instead to let you call it from within JSNI. This is because the JSNI can be modified to actually call the java method.
If you want to call Java/GWT methods from in plain js, you must expose them for this. You linked http://www.gwtproject.org/doc/latest/DevGuideCodingBasicsJSNI.html#calling, but didn't actually use the important part:
public static native void exportStaticMethod() /*-{
$wnd.computeLoanInterest =
$entry(#mypackage.MyUtilityClass::computeLoanInterest(IFI));
}-*/;
This is the important piece - you must expose the function to where the outside JS can call it, but you must do this exposing from within a JSNI func. Note that we are not calling the function here, just referring to it.
I think you missed the Type Parameter:
$entry(#com.onix.sdm.SDM_Mailer::setSelectedFolder(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)(name, fileId));
JSNI is well explained at DevGuideCodingBasicsJSNI
I have a Java class that reads text from the clipboard stored in an oracle database, when I try to execute the function that uses that class i get the following error.
select texttransfer
from dual;
ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception:
oracle.aurora.awt.UnsupportedOperation: GUI not supported.
here is the class code:
public String readClipboard() throws UnsupportedFlavorException, IOException
{
String text = "";
Clipboard clipboard = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard();
Transferable contents = clipboard.getContents(clipboard);
text = (String)(contents.getTransferData(DataFlavor.stringFlavor));
return text;
}
public static String world()
{
return "Hello world";
}
function code:
create or replace
FUNCTION TextTransfer RETURN VARCHAR2 AS
LANGUAGE JAVA NAME 'TextTransfer.readClipboard() return java.lang.String';
However, when I call the method world() it executes perfect.
Thank you
This is not possible as the Exception oracle.aurora.awt.UnsupportedOperation: GUI not supported already says. In Oracle you have no windowing system so you canno access the clipboard.
Java stored procedures (as well as pl/sql procedures) are executed on server side and has no access to GUI of client (including clipboard, screen, audio system, etc.). Are you really want to read clipboard of server OS?
The following is an extract from Oracle documentation.
Oracle-specific Peer implementation that throws an exception,
oracle.aurora.awt.UnsupportedOperation, if you execute Java code on the Oracle9i server that attempts to materialize a user interface.
Oracle9i's lack of support for materializing user interfaces in the server means that we do not pass the Java 2 Compatibility Kit tests for java.awt, java.awt.manual, and java.applet
From java code i am able to run the vbscript by using this code
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("wscript C:\\ppt\\test1.vbs ");
But want to know how to call the method of vbscript from java..for example in test1.vbs
Set objPPT = CreateObject("PowerPoint.Application")
objPPT.Visible = True
Set objPresentation = objPPT.Presentations.Open("C:\ppt\Labo.ppt")
Set objSlideShow = objPresentation.SlideShowSettings.Run.View
sub ssn1()
objPPT.Run "C:\ppt\Labo.ppt!.SSN"
End sub
how to call only ssn1() method from java.Otherwise can we run the macro of a power point from java code..kindly help!!
This should make you happy :) Go to the WScript section : http://technet.microsoft.com/library/ee156618.aspx
Here's my idea... in your vbscript file, make your script listen to a command line parameter that would specify which method to call. Then, in Java, you could only have to use this parameter whenever you want to call a specific method in the file.
Otherwise, if you want to access powerpoint in java, you will need to access its API like you did in vbscript, which is possible if vbscript can do it but the approach / syntax may change.
I'm not so much into the visual basic script side, but if you can expose your visual basic script as a COM object, the you can access the methods of it from java by usage of frameworks such as for example com4j:
http://com4j.java.net/
The PowerPoint application object's .Run method lets you call any public subroutine or function in any open presentation or loaded add-in
This post answers the OP's question:
Otherwise can we run the macro of a power point from java code..kindly help!!
(but does not address the original vbscript question)
There's the JACOB library, which stands for Java COM Bridge, you can find here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/jacob-project/?source=directory
With it you can invoke Excel, Word, Outlook, PowerPoint application object model methods.
I've tried this with Excel but not PowerPoint. (This is just some sample code, one might want to make it more object oriented.)
public class Excel {
private static ActiveXComponent xl = null;
public static Init() {
try {
ComThread.InitSTA();
xl = ActiveXComponent.connectToActiveInstance("Excel.Application.14");
// 14 is Office 2010, if you don't know what version you can do "Excel.Application"
if (xl==null) {
// code to launch Excel if not running:
xl = new ActiveXComponent("Excel.Application");
Dispatch.put(xl, "Visible", Constants.kTrue);
}
}
catch (Exception e) {
ComThread.Release();
}
}
public static String Run(String vbName) {
// Variant v = Dispatch.call(xl, "Run", vbName); // using string name lookup
Variant v = Dispatch.call(xl, 0x103, vbName); // using COM offset
// return Dispatch.get(this, "Name").getString();
return v.getString();
}
public static Variant Run1p(String vbName, Object param) {
// Variant v = Dispatch.call(xl, "Run", vbName, param);
return Dispatch.call(xl, 0x103, vbName, param);
// return Dispatch.get(this, "Name").getString();
}
public static Worksheet GetActiveWorksheet () {
// Dispatch d = xl.getProperty("ActiveSheet").toDispatch();
Dispatch d = Dispatch.get(xl, 0x133).toDispatch ();
return d; // you may want to put a wrapper around this...
}
}
Notes:
For Excel, at least, to get Run to invoke a VBA macro/subroutine several things have to be true:
The Excel workbook containing the macro must be "Active" (i.e. must
be the ActiveWorkbook) otherwise Run will not find the VBA subroutine. (However the workbook does not have to be
screen visible!! This means you can call a VBA Macro that is in an add-in!).
You can then pass the name of the macro using the following syntax as a string literal:
VBAProjectName.VBAModuleName.SubroutineName
For COM object invocations, you can use the name lookup version or the id number version. The id numbers come from the published COM interfaces (which you can find in C++ header files, or possibly have JACOB look them up for you).
If you successfully did the connection to Excel, be sure to call ComThread.Release() when you're done. Put it in some appropriately surrounding finally. If the process of your Java code terminates without calling it, the COM reference count on Excel will be wrong, and the Excel process will never terminate, even after you exit the Excel application. Once that happens, needless to say, Excel starts to behave screwy then (when you try to use it next, it runs but will fail to load any plug-ins/add-ons). If that happens (as it can during debugging esp. if you are bypassing finally's for better debugging) you have to use the task manager to kill the Excel process.
