i need more details like the build u r using the path set.

When I try to open a session with the following line

session = pfcGlobal.GetProESession();

I get an exception:

Exception caught: java.lang.NullPointerException
    java.lang.NullPointerException
       at com.ptc.cipjava.CIPRemoteApp.getTransport(CIPRemoteApp.java:22)
       at com.ptc.pfc.pfcGlobal.pfcGlobal.GetProESession(pfcGlobal.java:12)
       at start.main(start.java:25)


My Path and CLASSPATH variables look like as follows:

path:

<JDK Loadpoint>\bin

CLASSPATH:

<JDK Loadpoint>\lib\classes.zip

<J-Link loadpoint>\jars\cipjava.jar

<J-Link loadpoint>\jars\pfc.jar


Compiling is without errors. When I start my applet,
I get always the same errors, if proe is running or not!
Have You any idea?

How are you starting your applet - is it from within Pro/E or Outside eg in a browser?.

If it is from a browser, you will have to either connect to Pro/E or start Pro/E. Once you have connected, you can get the session. See below. Here timeout is an Integer for how long it will try to connect. I usually use 20.


 try
        {
                  connection=pfcAsyncConnection.AsyncConnection_Connect(null,null,null,timeout);
         
          try{
            session = connection.GetSession();
             }
          catch(jxthrowable x){
           }
        }

        catch (jxthrowable x){
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Could not Connected to Pro/E");
          }

As for tutorials, there are some that are in the Pro/E loadpoint - not brilliant but just enough to get you going.

happy b'day to meena
