[JET] How to Dynamically call JET transform api through a plugin? [message #535825]

Hi,
I am trying to dynamically call JET transform api through a plugin. But I am getting some error. Please help me with it

Detailed explanation:

1) I have created a new wizard plugin Which selects a particular file.
2) This is an XML file which i need to futher process using JET and create some new files.
3) I am already done with the JET templates for that XML. Now the question it to merge the 2 systems.
4) Hence on when we click the finish button of the wizard i give the xml file as input to the JET template.
5) I am using the following code to invoke JET template

IResource fileRes = (IResource) file // the path to xml file;
IStatus status = JET2Platform.runTransformOnResource("com.tibco.mdm.trwJetTemplate ",fileRes,monitor);

But it gives me a weird error when i click on finish button an alert message pops up sayin error in org/eclipse/jet/JET2Platform

and it gives no other error.

Please help me with this

Thanks in advance
Herat

i have included org.eclipse.jet in my plugin dependancies ...

I found some thing here http://wiki.eclipse.org/JET_FAQ_Why_do_I_get_errors_stating_ variable_%27org.eclipse.jet.resource.project.name%27_is_unde fined%3F

and i implemented everything mentioned .. but still not working

the modified code is as follows:

IResource fileRes = (IResource) file;

Map<String, String> variables = new HashMap<String, String>();
variables.put("org.eclipse.jet.resource.project.name", "com.tibco.mdm.trwJetTemplate");

IStatus status = JET2Platform.runTransformOnResource("com.tibco.mdm.trwJetTemplate ",fileRes,variables,monitor);

A ClassDefNotFoundError from a referenced plug-in suggests something
went wrong in loading that plug-in in the first place.

We can deduce that the org.eclipse.jet plug-in is installed (otherwise,
your wizard plug-in would not have loaded). But, some other problem may
have occurred that is preventing the org.eclipse.jet plug-in from
loading correctly.

Take a look at the Error Log view, and see whether there are log entries
that might provide more details. (You might need to do Window > Show
View > ... to make the view visible).

Also, take a look in the Plug-ins View to see whether the
org.eclipse.jet plug-in is loaded. Alternatively, you can just create a
simple JET transform and try running it. Successfully doing that is a
sign the JET is correctly installed and operational.

Lastly, in your original post you had this code snippet:

IStatus status = JET2Platform.runTransformOnResource(
"com.tibco.mdm.trwJetTemplate ",fileRes,monitor);

Note the space after trwJetTemplate. Remove it - it cannot be doing
anything good.

Thanks Paul,
Just one last question.
I am selecting a value from the wizard plugin lets say Person. This value i want to send it to the Jet template . is there any way to do it so that i can process the template according to this value.

Thanks in advance

The method JET2Platform.runTransformOnResource() has a variant that
accepts a Map. This map defines JET variables that will be available to
the templates. A quick example:

Map<String,Object> predefinedVariables = new HashMap<String,Object>();
predefinedVariables.put("myVar", myValue);
JET2Platform.runTransformOnResource(...., predefinedVariables, ... );

In a template you would refer to the variable in XPath epxressions:

<c:get select="$myVar"/>
