[opencms-dev] Invoking openCMS from Java, not within a servle t/Tomcat

[O'Reilly John]

Hi,

I have also been attempting to use OpenCms from within a separate vm.  Using
CmsShell as a basis I've got as far as retrieving content description using
the following code:

CmsBase.setBasePath("C:\\devtools\\Tomcat
4.1\\webapps\\opencms\\WEB-INF\\");
String propsPath = CmsBase.getPropertiesPath(true);
Configurations conf = new Configurations(new ExtendedProperties(propsPath));
OpenCms opencms = new OpenCms(conf);

CmsObject cms = new CmsObject();
opencms.initUser(cms, null, null, "Admin", "Administrators", 1, null); 

String target = "/testapp/index.html";
CmsFile file = cms.readFile(target);
String contents = new String(file.getContents());
System.out.println(contents);


I've been trying to get the opencms engine to generate html (content
combined with templates) but have been unsuccessful so far.  Any ideas
warmly welcomed.

rgds,
John

Hi,

I tried to write a program which instantiates opencms without tomcat 
running, like th CmsShell. However, I got exception in the middle of the 
instantiation something like "....unable to intiate registry..." kinda. I 
think I'm missing something. It should be possible to get openCMS working 
without tomcat right? Have any clues about what to bear in mind?

Murat
Thanks
