You can import Java packages for active or passive Java transformations. Import packages in the Import Packages section of the Java editor.
For example, to import the Java I/O package, enter the following code in the Import Packages section:
import java.io.*;
You can import built-in, third-party, or custom Java packages. If you import third-party or custom Java packages, you must add the packages to the classpath. For more information about configuring the classpath, see
Classpath configuration.
After you import Java packages, you can use the imported packages in the other sections.
You cannot declare or use static variables, instance variables, or user methods in the Import Packages section.
When you export a mapping or
mapping
task that contains a Java transformation, the jar or class files that contain the third-party or custom packages required by the Java transformation are not included in the export XML file. Therefore, when you import the mapping or task, you must copy the jar or class files that contain the required third-party or custom packages to the Secure Agent machine.
