Orbeon Custom Processors

All,
Note, if someone has replied I may have missed it because my ops mailing list must have expired. A forward of the answer if one exists would be nice. Thanks! :-)

I'm trying to develop a custom processor that will call a suite of web services. I have the Java code used in another app and want to have an XForms app send an instance to the processor which in turn will pass the instance to the Java classes and then on to the proper web service.

For the environment I have an Orbeon nightly build .war running under Tomcat. I say that because I'm not sure I have everything I need to get the Java code compiled.

I read the documentation on the Java Processors but I have the following questions:
   1. Do I have to have a /java directory somewhere (i.e. sourcepath= oxf./java) in the "resources" for the Java code to be compiled?
   2. I have the files in a directory with the "apps" under the "resources" directory but it is not called /java. I cannot tell if the Java code is being compiled when I refresh the browser that executes my XForm.
Thanks,
Randy

You can always check Nabble to see if posts/answers went through:

The Java processor is meant to compile the Java files you provide.
They don't need to be under a "java" directory. But you need to run
Orbeon Forms with a JDK, not a JRE, so that  the Java compiler is
available.

You might want to check if your Java processor at least is running. In
your log4j.xml, try putting a category for class:

org.orbeon.oxf.processor.JavaProcessor

and set it to debug mode.
