Moving on:
I have:
<cfset docPath = expandPath("./testDoc.rtf")>
<cfset myFile =
CreateObject("java","java.io.FileOutputStream").Init(CreateObject("java","java.io.File").Init(docPath))>
<cfscript>
paths = arrayNew(1);
/*
This points to the jar we want to load.
Could also load a directory of .class files
*/
paths[1] = expandPath("iText-2.1.2u.jar");
paths[2] = expandPath("iText-rtf-2.1.2u.jar");
//create the loader
loader = createObject("component", "javaloader.JavaLoader").init(paths);
myDoc = loader.create("com.lowagie.text.Document").init();
myRTF = loader.create("com.lowagie.text.rtf.RtfWriter2");
// myRTF = myRTF.init(myDoc,myFile)
// thisRTF = myRTF.getInstance(myRTF, myFile);
</cfscript>
<cfdump var="myRTF">
No I need to instantiate an object of type RtfWriter2 the constructor
takes type Document and OutputStream. I would have though my init()
would work but CF says it can't find a constructor that takes these
types, what am I doing wrong here?
Does anyone have a basic hello world example I could take a look at that
uses these classes? Once I can get to having the RtfWriter2 I'm pretty
sure I can figure it our the rest of the methods seem pretty easy to use
and the lowagie site has some good examples.
