Java COM Automation with Jacob and JBuilder

I am using JACOB in java scriplets running under Tomcat with MS WMI classes like WIN32_ and CIM_ for remotely connected PCs.All works fine for simple cases, but...1) I am not able to copy a file with CIM_Datafile class from remote to local machine:<%@ page import="com.jacob.com.*" %><%@ page import="com.jacob.activeX.*" %><% String user=”xxx”; String Password=”yyy”; String directoryName = "C:\\Temp"; String COMPNAME=”zzz”; ActiveXComponent locator = new ActiveXComponent("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator"); Dispatch services = locator.invoke("ConnectServer",new Variant(COMPMNAME), new Variant("root\\cimv2"),new Variant(user),new Variant(password)).toDispatch(); String query = "ASSOCIATORS OF {Win32_Directory='" + directoryName + "'} " + "WHERE AssocClass=CIM_DirectoryContainsFile ResultClass=CIM_DataFile ResultRole=PartComponent Role=GroupComponent" ; Dispatch objectSet = Dispatch.call(services, "ExecQuery", query).toDispatch(); EnumVariant enumval = new EnumVariant(objectSet); while (enumval.hasMoreElements()) { Dispatch item = enumval.Next().toDispatch(); String name = Dispatch.get(item, "Caption").toString(); out.println(name +"
"); if(name.equals("c:\\temp\\test.txt")){ String copyFile= "c:\\Temp\\new\\ test.txt "; Variant copy_retcode= Dispatch.call(item,"Copy",copyFile,null); out.println(copy_retcode +"
"); }%>The code above works and copies test.txt on remote machine from c:\\Temp to c:\\Temp\\newDo you know a way of how to copy it from remote to local machine?2) I am trying to get registry values on remote machine by using EnumValues method of StdRegProv in WMIFor VB it described in details in: http://safari.oreilly.com/9780735622975/ch17lev1sec4#X2ludGVybmFsX1NlY3Rpb25Db250ZW50P3htbGlkPTk3ODA3MzU2MjI5NzUvY2gxN2xldjFzZWM4Converting into Java/Jacob I have:int HKLM = "0x80000002";String strKeyPath = "SOFTWARE\\ODBC" ; ActiveXComponent locator = new ActiveXComponent("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator"); Dispatch services = locator.invoke("ConnectServer",new Variant(COMPNAME), new Variant("root\\default"),new Variant(user),new Variant(password)).toDispatch(); Dispatch oReg = Dispatch.call(services, "Get", "StdRegProv").toDispatch(); Variant ret = new Variant (); ret= Dispatch.call(oReg, "EnumKey", HKLM, strKeyPath ); out.println( “ret=”+ret +"
");it returns 0 – means OK, but I do not know how to retrieve results going to the arrSubKeys parameter of VB original code:objReg.EnumKey HKLM, strKeyPath, arrSubKeysThanks in advance.
