hi,

Im trying to complete my first useful jsp (i had previously only done the hello world example) and i am getting quite a few errors which are confusing me. The code is below

<%@ page language="java" import="java.util.*, javax.naming.*, 
info.amadeusserver.interfaces.*, info.amadeusserver.ejb.*" %>
<%
String path = request.getContextPath();
String basePath = request.getScheme()+"://"+request.getServerName()+":"+request.getServerPort()+path+"/";

    InitialContext ic = null;
    ic = new InitialContext();
    DevicesHome home = (DevicesHome)ic.lookup("java:comp/env/Test");
    Devices devs = home.create();
%>

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
  <head>
    <base href="<%=basePath%>">
    
    <title>The UDK Main Page 'devices.jsp' starting page</title>
    
    <meta http-equiv="description" content="UDK Server Main Page">
    
    <!--
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css">
    -->
  </head>
  
  <body>
    <H1><%= devs.getServerName() %></H1> <br>
    <H2><%= devs.getHomeAddress() %></H2> <br><br>
    <TABLE BORDER=1 BORDERCOLOR =SILVER BGCOLOR=IVORY CELLPADDING=5>
    <% List devtable = devs.getAllDevices(); %>  
    <%! String[] headerRow = (String[])devtable(0); %>
    <% for (int i = 0; i<headerRow.length; i++) { %>
        <TR><TH ALIGN=LEFT> <%= headerRow[i] %> </TH></TR>
    <% } %>
    <% for (int i = 1; i<devtable.size(); i++) { %>
        <% String[] row = (String[])devtable.get(i); %>
        <% for (int r = 0; r<row.length; r++) { %> 
            <TR><TD> <%= row[r] %> </TD></TR>
        <% } %>
    <% } %>
  </body>
</html>

All the method calls and the first occurance of the devs variable get underlined in red despite being correct. Ive imported all the relavent classes at the start. I also get an error at the

<%! String[] headerRow = (String[])devtable(0); %>

which says

cannot resolve symbol: symbol :method devtable(int)

Does anyone have any idea why? im stumped been puzzling over it all day. Its probs somethings obvious that im not spotting.

Cheers
Ian

Ian,

Not sure about the method call and devs underlines, but I believe your code:

<%! String[] headerRow = (String[])devtable(0); %>

needs to be:


 <%! String[] headerRow = (String[])devtable.get(0); %>

HTH,
-Kit
