data-input via TI Java-Extensions

[saltRR]

This is my first topic here, and I hope it fits the requirements.

I tried to programm an input possebility with the Java-extensions, getting a possebility to make Ti-processes more interactive.
I tried it with a simple reader and .readline approach.
And I also tried to create a pop-up window with the class JOptionPane.

Both resulted that the TI-Process is getting stuck and i have to restart the TM1-server.
I also tried to wrap it into an

• try{}catch(){}

, if it is just throwing an exception i dont see.

But because there is no error message and it is just stuck, I don't know what the problem is.

It feels like the window should be shown and it is waiting for me to do the input, but i shows nothing where i could do the input.

Is there a reason TM1 is blocking any windows to pop up or is there an option or workaround for it?

I don't think this is going to work. TI runs on the server - how will it make a connection to the user who runs it?

Whatever pop-up you might have would be on the server, not the client. Also, since TM1 is likely running as a service there would be no desktop interaction anyway.

It would be helpful to say exactly what you're trying to accomplish. There may be another tool besides Java extensions that could help you achieve your goal.
