JSP IOverload cannot be resolved to a type

sdk development
1

Hi,
I am stuck on this java error “IOverload cannot be resolved to a type”
I created a jsp file to change dynamically the database connection of connected user using (IOverload and IUniverse) on BOXI3 it works fine.
Now i’m trying to do the same on BI4.1 and i have faced many problems that I solved but still stuck on this error.

These are my steps:

I changed this parameter to allow jsp modifications
	-Folder : tomcat/webapps/BOE/WEB-INF/internal
	-File : global.properties
	-line : precompiled.jsp.files.use=true --> false

I added some code in BILaunchpad

	Folder : tomcat/webapps/BOE/WEB-INF/eclipse/plugins/webpath.InfoView/web/jsp/listing
	File : main.jsp
	Line : in <div id="bannerContent"> I added a combo box and "on change" I call change.jsp

I created change.jsp (this is a sample code that throw the error)

	Folder : tomcat/webapps/BOE/WEB-INF/eclipse/plugins/webpath.InfoView/web/
	File : change.jsp
	Lines :
			<%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.infostore.IInfoObject" %>
			<%@ page import="com.businessobjects.sdk.plugin.desktop.overload.*"%>

			<html>
			<body>
			<%
				IOverload A = null;
				IInfoObject B = null;
			%>
			</body>
			</html>

I added an exclude line for change.jsp in web.xml

	Folder : tomcat/webapps/BOE/WEB-INF/eclipse/plugins/webpath.InfoView/web/WEB-INF	
	File : web.xml
	line : 
	    <init-param>
            <param-name>excludeUrl234</param-name>
            <param-value>/change.</param-value>
        </init-param>

I added the jar file of overload and universe classes to lib folder

	Folder : tomcat/webapps/BOE/WEB-INF/eclipse/plugins/webpath.InfoView/web/WEB-INF/lib
	File : SL_plugins.jar

I modified the MANIFEST.MF to add the SL_plugins.jar but i added it with notepad

Folder : tomcat/webapps/BOE/WEB-INF/eclipse/plugins/webpath.InfoView/META-INF
File : MANIFEST.MF
line : ,web/WEB-INF/lib/SL_plugins.jar (the lines are limited to 70 caracter so i did the same)

I’m not a good java developper, and i don’t use eclipse,
for each modification i did the same in the tomcat work folder and restart it
and also i delete the proxytemp folder before restarting

i know that this is not the good way,
but still belive that this is also a solution, just need you help to make it work

thanks

You need to make sure that the correct library files are in the Build Path for your application. Here are the ones that I use by default in all of my apps:

bcm.jar
biarengine.jar
biplugins.jar
ceaspect.jar
cecore.jar
celib.jar
ceplugins_core.jar
ceplugins_cr.jar
cesession.jar
corbaidl.jar
ebus405.jar
logging.jar
TraceLog.jar
sdk.core.jar
sdk.core.server.common.jar
sdk.core.server.corba.jar
sdk.core.server.jar
sdk.core.session.cms.jar
sdk.core.session.jar
external/shared-objects.jar
dsl_sdk_commands.jar
dsl_sdk_requests.jar
dsl_sdk_server.jar
dsl_sdk_services.jar
SL_plugins.jar
CrystalReportsSDK.jar
cereports.jar
crlov.jar
CrystalEnterpriseRepository.jar
aspectjrt.jar
certjFIPS.jar
com.sap.js.passport.api.jar
cryptojFIPS.jar
derby.jar
freessl201.jar
log4j.jar
ssljFIPS.jar
guice-1.0.jar

There are dependencies between many of the files, which is why you need to include all of these in the Build Path.
