Access a java object in created in one data step in another datastep

deleted_user — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 18:25:48 GMT

I create a java object in one data step and would like to access it in another. Can someone tell me how to do this?

data _null_;

dcl javaobj rm(...);

run;

data _null_;
set dataset;
rm.callVoidmethod(...);
run;

Thanks.

Have you looked at the SAS DOC on this topic?

Yes, everything seems to be done in just one data step. I need help referencing a javaobj created in one data step but used in another.

It's unclear what you want to accomplish in the two DATA steps, from my perspective. There are other technical references at the SAS support http://support.sas.com/ website -- consider using the Google advanced search argument below and hopefully you might find some suitable information for your question.

I am working with multiple data sets that cannot be merged together and need to reference the same javaobj workspace. So I would need multiple data steps.

Suggest you open a track with SAS support for input/feedback.
