Question

---

When I try to show an applet at Bonita Form through HTML Widget with Data:

<applet archive="jarfile-with-applet-code.jar" code="com.company.applets.MyFooApplet.class" width="400" height="500"> </applet>

I got this error:

Exception: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.company.applets.MyFooApplet.class
load: class com.company.applets.MyFooApplet.class not found.

I already JAR file (Select Pool > Application > Dependencies > Add JAR), but still not works.

I think when I press [Run] at toolbar, the WAR generated lost dependencies.. or template generated to page dont find the applet class..

Answer 1

I used an applet in Bonita to embed ms office documents. Ive made it to work by using default package in the applet class. Then add your applet jar and dependencies in your proccess by selecting the pool -> Application -> Resources -> Add File, of course it better if you first signed the applet jars. Note that (Select Pool > Application > Dependencies > Add JAR) approach wont work cause these are the runtime core process libraries, the applet is an standalone application independent from the BOS core. I Hope this helps
