I'm trying to call java within php. I have JAVA JRE 1.6 installed. The php I'm using is distributed by our partner so I couldn't configure it to use JAVA. I've modified the "php.ini" file to add the JRE path to it: java.class.path="/usr/java/jre1.6.0_01" java.home="/usr/java/jre1.6.0_01/bin" java.library.path="/usr/java/jre1.6.0_01/lib" I've wrote a Basic java within php, but I get error: "Fatal error: Class 'Java' not found. What am I missing? Can I import java in php? Below is the java part: <?php // get instance of Java class java.lang.System in PHP $system = new Java('java.lang.System'); // demonstrate property access echo 'Java version=' . $system->getProperty('java.version') . '<br />'; echo 'Java vendor=' . $system->getProperty('java.vendor') . '<br />'; echo 'OS=' . $system->getProperty('os.name') . ' ' . $system->getProperty('os.version') . ' on ' . $system->getProperty('os.arch') . ' <br />'; // java.util.Date example $formatter = new Java('java.text.SimpleDateFormat', "EEEE, MMMM dd, yyyy 'at' h:mm:ss a zzzz"); echo $formatter->format(new Java('java.util.Date')); ?>
