Hi,

Im new to eclipse, and java and axl

I copied demo code from the cjsco developer site in the docs - axl section called !hello-world-with-java/hello-world-with-java

Presumably the code is good but eclipse flags this line:

String AXLRequest = "<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="*****//schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ns="####//www.cisco.com/AXL/API/8.5">";

(substitute the ***** with https: and the #### with http: )
with this error:
Syntax error, insert ";" to complete LocalVariableDeclarationStatement

why? and how do I resolve it?

thanks

This isn't really the place for general Java questions, but as String literals in Java are marked by surrounding text with double quotes, you can't have double quotes in the String contents without escaping them with a backslash.

Hi Nitin,

Thanks for the info - since this was from demo code I did not expect to need to modify it out of the chute, so I suspected it was an eclipse oddity. But escaping the extra quotes eliminated the error . The modified line was:

String AXLRequest = "<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\" xmlns:ns=\"http://www.cisco.com/AXL/API/8.5\">";
