The WASD Java environment was first implemented in December 1997 and there has been no further development. Developed using the first-release JDK1.1 beta kit for OpenVMS Alpha V7.1. Verified working with the final release JDK 1.1.6 in September 1998, still working with the JDK 1.1.8-3 update in June 2000, then in March 2002 verified against JDK 1.3.1. Confirmed working for Java 5 and Java 6 at December 2014. That it continues to work nearly twenty years after coding is a testament (to something, not sure exactly what :-)

This directory provides some demonstration Java scripts. These are here only to provide examples on approaching scripting using this environment ... and of course to provide some skeletal code for use in real Java scripts.

Of course the demonstrations will only work if Java is installed on the server system!   ... Check Now

The class that makes CGI support relatively easy is CGIplus.java (javadoc).

The wrapper procedure JAVA.COM ensures the required runtime environment is established.

Note that due to the way classes are specified by the WASD server Java class names invoked as main()s must be all lower case.

For setup requirements check the Other Environments chapter in the Scripting documentation.
