Hi there,

Bonita Studio 6.3.3, Java 1.7.0.67, Windows 8.1

I've created a Java connector with no inputs and only outputs. the purpose is to pull data from a parameters file and return to the process.

When return values are hard coded the connector works but when I use Source->Externalize Strings (to create a messages.properties file) and then I execute I get an error

java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
org.bonitasoft.engine.bpm.connector.ConnectorExecutionException: USERNAME=install | org.bonitasoft.engine.core.connector.exception.SConnectorException: org.bonitasoft.engine.connector.exception.SConnectorException: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

According to Oracle this exception says:

*Signals that an unexpected exception has occurred in a static initializer. An ExceptionInInitializerError is thrown to indicate that an exception occurred during evaluation of a static initializer or the initializer for a static variable. *

I've had a look and I see the messages.java has static initializers, as this code is generated by Bonita how do we fix it?

Thanks and best regards Seán

Hi,

does the messages.properties file available in the .bar? Source-> Externalize Strings is an Eclipse feature (I mean not specific to Bonita). Can you try to provide the full stacktrace please?

Regards,

I haven't even got as far as a BAR, this is just within Studio.

There is no further stack trace, the simple way to test it is

Open Studio, create a new connector definition (use defaults) no ins or outs. Create a new connector implementation (use defaults) in the Java TODO section

add code

String s1 = "Test";

Do Source->Externalize Strings,

Eclipse will do its stuff...create a messages.properties file, the class and java code

Save the code then Test the connector using Development->Test Connector

This is where you will find the failure.

Ok, I understood the issue. The message.properties is not embedded in the jar connector that we are generating. We never thought about this use case. Please open a feature request.

Thanks for the report.
