Sooner or later you would like to test your code out of container. Of course you would like to use BusinessFlowManager and HumanTaskManager. To make use of them, they should be fetched from JNDI. Problem you may face is that WPS is running with security turned on. Writing JNDI client could be challenging because of JAAS. Official documentation is always missing some vital information. You end up surfing the net looking to some guidance. The same thing I did. The best one I found was blog from Nerdy Eddy. In first part he describes writing client with both SUN JRE and IBM one. To get around security check, EVERYONE group was given permission to use naming service. That will not help using BPC and HTM API. Better solution is one from second part where JAAS login is performed. You can see all the nasty exceptions you can get trying to connect. I got a many of them also. The end result for me was JUnit 4 template.
Here is the code:
I did changes to sas.client.props and ssl.client.props. To run JUnit I had add VM arguments in Elipse's Run Configurations window to following:
Working directory I changed to bin (build directory) because I wanted to use TraceSettings.properties file for logging. I also changed JRE to WPS JRE. To be able to use BPC API I also added org.eclipse.equinox.registry_3.2.1.R32x_v20060814.jar from WPS plugins directory to class path.
Running the JUnit code above you should get similar to:
