Re: [Php-java-bridge-users] How to call a method with parameters?

[<php...@li...>]

Hi, Jost.

Thanks for your tremendous contributions to the PHP and Java user
communities.

Your reply actual gave me the answer to my problem.  Lately I've gotten used
to using PHP functions with pre-defined default values for arguments that
are not specified when the function is called.  The Java method I was trying
to call had a few optional parameters, and I just left them off, foolishly
thinking they would get filled in by default... and that was causing the
error.  Once I gave it all the parameters it expected, it worked fine.
Silly mistake!

Once I overcame that, I had another problem which I'll outline here for
posterity:
I couldn't get the "java.class.path" value defined properly until I came
across these two bits you posted in 2005:
"According to the README it is java.classpath" and "Please don't forget the
double-quotes"
http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thread11467.html

"java.classpath" vs. "java.class.path" -- There's probably a lot of
confusion about this since http://php.net/java states it as
"java.class.path" but apparently JavaBridge requires "java.classpath"

Leaving off the quotes might be another common problem since lots of
settings in php.ini don't require them -- for example setting extension_dir.
But java.classpath didn't work for me until I added the quotes.

Thanks again.
