The documentation to this class states that it "Initializes ArcObjects for Java for usage in ArcGIS Engine." That class appears to be an ArcObjects component, not a Runtime component. In Runtime, you use the ArcGISRuntime class to initialize its components after authorization is achieved. Care to elaborate?

I suspect you are writing ArcObjects code and not Runtime code. They are very different things.

There is a forum for ArcObjects where you will get better answers.

http://forums.arcgis.com/forums/20-ArcObjects-SDKs

The Runtime SDK for Java which is what we are enthusiatic about in this forum isn't ArcObjects based. We've written it from scratch and it's really the replacement for ArcGIS Engine development.

If you'd like more information on the Runtime SDK for Java we're always happy to help and I'd encourage any new projects to be developed in this instead of ArcObjects.

Good luck

Mark

PS I can move your post to the ArcObjects forum is you want.
