Unable to un java class file in NX

[yadvdinesh]

Hi,

I have developed a small NX open java journal using eclipse. When I try to tun the journal in Nx through File->Execute->NXOpen-> .class file, it is giving me an error "No author license is available to be able to run this java class file". Can someone plz explain why I am getting this error and whats the solution?

PFA the error screenshot.


Thanx

yadvdinesh --

So, in order to execute an NX Open application (written in any language) one of two things needs to be true. The user must either:

1. Have a valid authoring license for that language available OR

2. Be running a "signed" version of the application.

(And in both cases, the user must have valid application licenses for the functionality being executed in the automation. Modeling licenses if modeling is being automated... CAM licenses if CAM is being automated, etc.)

And as you might suspect, an automation author will need a valid authoring license to "sign" an NX Open application.

(The signing process is detailed in the NX Open Programming Guide in the NX Docs, but in a nutshell, after the application has been compiled, the author can run a small "signing" application -- again, using a valid author license -- that will "approve" the application for execution by others who do NOT have a valid authoring license.)

So in other words...

The original author of the application can, as long as they have access to a valid authoring license, freely compile and execute their automation locally (so that testing can proceed quickly during development.)

Once they decide to distribute that application to others, they must "sign" it before others will be able to execute it.

SO... The big question then becomes...

Do you have access to a Java Authoring license?

If not, then give your sales rep a call.

Just found the answer of my second question in NX Open Help File...We can sign the NX open applications creatde in Eclipse using SignJar which is already present in the NX installation directory

If you do not have an authoring license, you will not be able to sign the application.
