Error: java.io.FileNotFoundException: dfc.properties

Hi,

I am working on a new java/DFc class with a method in it. I am trying to connect to our test docbase using the following:

public static void findUsersWithPendingTasks() throws DfException {                        //DfClientX clientX = new DfClientX();            //IDfClient client = clientX.getLocalClient();            IDfClientX clientX = new DfClientX(); //Step 1            IDfClient client = clientX.getLocalClient(); //Step 2            IDfSessionManager sMgr = client.newSessionManager(); //Step 3            IDfLoginInfo loginInfoObj = clientX.getLoginInfo();            loginInfoObj.setSecurityMode( IDfLoginInfo.SECURITY_MODE_SECURE );            loginInfoObj.setUser( "prodinowner" );            loginInfoObj.setPassword( "prodinowner" );            loginInfoObj.setDomain( "" );//    sMgr.setIdentity( strRepositoryName, loginInfo );            sMgr.setIdentity( "testdoc", loginInfoObj );            IDfSession session = sMgr.getSession( "testdoc" ); //Step 4

I am executing the method in debug mode and it failed at "Step 2" with the following errors:

I have my dfc.properties file in Composer at C:\Composer 6.7\Composer\plugins\com.emc.ide.external.dfc_1.0.0\documentum.config. I could not figure out why it says

java.io.FileNotFoundException: dfc.properties

Please share your knowledge and experiences for figuring this out.

Thanks.

Do you have the C:\Documentum\config folder as a linked resource?

Try adding the directory wher DFC is to your Classpath in your project

VadimYakovlev

Add the location of the dfc.properties (e.g. the c:\documentum\config folder) to the build path of your eclipse project as a linked source folder

Thanks Francois and Vadim.

I see 'C:\Documentum\config' in my classpath already and also I have dfc.properties file under 'C:\Documentum\config' too.

Please advise me.

Thanks.

Not sure which classpath you are referring to. Please do clarify.

What IDE are you in in t he debug mode? Is it Eclipse?

If so:

open project porperties --> java build path --> Source tab

do you have the C:\Documentum\config folder referenced in the list of source folders on the build path?

If not, then add it there

athati

Thanks Vadim.

Oh.

Under 'Project Porperties --> Java build Path --> Source tab' I see, 'my Project name/src' folder and dfc.properties exists there. I tried to add, but I could not navigate to 'C:\Documentum\config'. I hope I am clear.

Please advise me.

Thanks.

Thank you very much Vadim.

I did "Link Source" option and linked to "C:\Documentum\config" and my issue is resolved.

Thanks a lot again.

VadimYakovlev

No problem.
