Ok so I pretty much tripped in front of the finish line that is me figuring this out :/. Um I've been trying to learn how to use filters and I've hit a snag that is confusing me. Ok so I wrote a filter to just add "This is a test" to xComments, it's a simple test to prove a point before I push foward with a request. So everything seems to be set up, made the class file(Compiled with no problems), made the component and modified the .hda to point to the class file (I think); yet I'm getting the error "The content item was not successfully checked in. Unable to do filter 'filterFile' for type 'validateStandard'. java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: filter/filterFile : filterFile (wrong name filter/filterFile)."
Here is the information about filter
Class Path: .../custom/filterFile/classes/filterFile.class
HDA File:
classpath=$COMPONENT_DIR/classes
@ResultSet Filters
4
type
location
parameter
loadOrder
validateStandard
filterFile
null
1
@end
It seems like the filter can't find the class file even though I said classpath is "$COMPONENT_DIR/classes" and put location as "filterFile".
