This guide a complement to the IBM® Rational® Build Forge® reference material, thus constituting a guide to the API use by describing its architecture, installation procedure, and main transactions, plus providing sample code to exemplify the main concepts.

Purpose

The Java™ API was made available in the IBM® Rational® Build Forge® Version 7.0.1, which enables programmatic interaction with the engine for the execution of projects and management of Build Forge data. Javadoc HTML documentation can be accessed in the http://[installedhost]/clients/java/docs directory. It provides detailed information on packages, classes and methods. This documentation serves its purpose as a comprehensive reference, but it does not provide guidance on use patterns.
