Java in Function:

You can write java code in Pega using activity java steps. And it's like normal java programming and there is no special/extra syntax involved. There are additional APIs available in Pega that can be utilized as well. Information about those APIs could be found in Pega Engine APIs menu.

Let us know if this helps or you need more information on this :)

Below is the syntax of calling a function from activity java step : 

pega_rules_utilities.findInPageList

Where Pega-Rules is the ruleset where the function is and Utilities is the library name. You need to replace hyphen in ruleset name by underscore and append library name.

And syntax for finding clipboard page is tools.findPage("pageName")

Best way to learn about these APIs is to write the normal activity step (e.x. calling a function) and then check Generated java. 

Let us know if this helps :)

And could i also know the reason for writing java step? Just asking if we can provide an better alternative.
