Yes, there is an open source Java API at http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/joarse.
I didn't take advantage of Java 5 features such as generics at the time I wrote this, but I think now it would be appropriate to do so as Java 5 has been available for quite some time now. I don't have time to do this at the moment, but I'd welcome contributions. This API is much more of an OO API than Remedy's, and perhaps more importantly takes advantages of Java collections so is far less verbose and is easier to use. (See code samples at http://joarse.sourceforge.net/doc). Yes, it still uses JNI - a pretty thin and straightforward layer built on top of the RTL project. There are many reasons for this, not the least of which is proprietary encryption and server compatibility mapping, which are built into the C API and not otherwise accessible to developers. No, it's not a 100% complete wrapper either. It probably serves most integration needs though.

Julio, I feel your chances of getting that from the Remedy Java API are around nil. The API isn't even OO, let alone equipped with Collections (which was a year 2000 feature) - hence, while a nice Java API would be welcome, it's never going to happen until the Remedy Java API is taken seriously (I include removing JNI in this statement). However. I had heard of an open source Remedy Java API, if you fancy contriburing towards an alternative.1 John Java System Solutions : http://www.javasystemsolutions.com _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are" _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are"
