[Php-java-bridge-users] Abstract classes

[Robert H. <rob...@gm...>]

I'm trying to use the jexcelapi http://www.andykhan.com/jexcelapi/ . 
The java code to create a work books looks like this

import java.io.File;
import java.util.Date;
import jxl.*; 

 Workbook workbook = Workbook.getWorkbook(new File("myfile.xls"));

Here is my PHP version
$fname1 = tempnam("/tmp", "demo.xls");
$file =  new java("java.io.File", $fname1);
echo java_last_exception_get();
$workbookStatic = new java("jxl.write.Workbook");
echo java_last_exception_get();
$workbook = $workbookStatic.createWorkbook($file);

and here is my output
Warning: java.lang.NullPointerException in
/var/www/html/ross/oww_testing/stats/carrier_report_old_ross_style.php
on line 14
Object
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: createworkbook() in
/var/www/html/ross/oww_testing/stats/carrier_report_old_ross_style.php
on line 16


FYI line 14 is $workbookStatic = new java("jxl.write.Workbook");

I can't figure out how to run the static function createworkbook.  If
anyone has any tips I'd really appreciate it.

Shouldn't this be 

  $workbookStatic->createWorkbook($file);

The . has a different meaning in PHP, the above code will cause PHP to
look for createWorkbook in the global scope and then append the result
to the object $workbookStatic.

Does this help?
