Okay this is exactly what I am looking at doing. We need to do a directory
listing off the IFS on a AS400. I have found a applet that works perfectly
for it. But now I need to convert it to a servlet so it can display a
webpage.
I know what to do for a "hello world" servlet with passing a parm, but now I
need help converting this program:
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import com.ibm.as400.access.*;
public class IFSList extends Object
{
public static void main(String[] parameters) {
System.out.println( " " );
String dir = "root";
String system = "systemIP";
String user = "user";
String password = "pass";
// if both parameters were not specified, display help text and
exit.
if (parameters.length >= 1) {
// Assume the first parameter is the system name and
// the second parameter is the directory name
String directoryName = dir + parameters[0];
try {
// Create an AS400 object for the AS/400 system that holds
the files.
AS400 as400 = new AS400(system, user, password);
// Create the IFSFile object for the directory.
IFSFile directory = new IFSFile(as400, directoryName);
// Generate the list of name. Pass the list method the
// directory filter object and the search match criteria.
//
// Note - this example does the processing in the filter
// object. An alternative is to process the list after
// it is returned from the list method call.
String[] directoryNames = directory.list(new
directoryFilter(),"*");
// Tell the user if the directory doesn't exist or is empty
if (directoryNames == null)
System.out.println("The directory does not exist");
else if (directoryNames.length == 0)
System.out.println("The directory is empty");
}
catch (Exception e) {
// If any of the above operations failed say the list failed
// and output the exception.
System.out.println("List failed");
System.out.println(e);
}
}
}
}
class directoryFilter implements IFSFileFilter {
public boolean accept(IFSFile file) {
try {
if (!file.isDirectory()) {
System.out.print(file.getName());
System.out.println("/t");
System.out.println(file.length());
}
return true;
}
catch (Exception e) {
return false;
}
}
}
My major problems are "public class IFSList extends Object" and the
directoryFilter class. How do I convert these parts over? Just some hand
holding is all I need here.
