Compiling java code in activity step
Below is the sample code which i am writing to retrieve the filename inside folder and subfolder by giving the directory name as an inputs
I am trying to use a user function/method to call the method if the file is a directory. But i am getting the following compilation error. I wanted to know what i am doing incorrectly.
Compilation Error
Test compilation failed: ----------

Indeed I would add the code above to a Function and then call that function from your activity. In that way you also ensure more reusability.

thanks Leo, I dont think that would be possible, because there may be different subfolders with in a directory which would be tough to call the piece of code which checks for file and writes its filename. So we have to determine the looping occurs recursively to check the filename in each of the subfolders.
Correct me if i am wrong. If so can you let me know how the approach.

1. When you write your java code in pega activity step you should mention complete package of that class
String files; (It should be like java.lang.String)
String size;
2. public void listFilesAndFilesSubDirectories(String Path);{ -- Wrong syntax, method is difrentiated with ";" due to this compiler checks whether your class is interface or abstract. if not it will throw an error like that.
3. tools.findPage("TempDirectoryListPage").getProperty(".DownLoadError").setValue("Either directory does not exist or is not a directory or No Access.");
Here it already finds the page "TempDirectoryListPage" now you are trying to access DownLoadError. here the problem is with "." it cannot find the "."
tools.findPage("TempDirectoryListPage").getProperty(".DirectoryNameList(<APPEND>)").setValue(files);
in java if you want to access an a property value you should use obj.propertyMethod. But here pega is doing that. so you can directly access that property using getProperty("YourPropertyName")
