Introduction
The installation instructions guide you in installing, updating, and uninstalling Rational® Programming Patterns V9.5.1.
Rational Programming Patterns is a set of development tools that are built on the Eclipse platform (www.eclipse.org). You can think of the Eclipse platform as the framework and Rational Programming Patterns and other bundled offerings as the tool contributors.
Rational Programming Patterns is installed on the IBM® Rational Software Delivery Platform. This platform is a common development environment that contains the development workbench and other software components that are shared by multiple products.
- A client that is integrated with different products, depending on your environment: Rational Developer for System z® (IBM Developer for z Systems™) or Rational
Developer for AIX® and Linux.
The client is also always integrated with Rational Team Concert™.
If you want to work on Batch Flow Charts and Screen Navigation Charts that come from the PacDesgin module of VisualAge® Pacbase, you must also install Rational Software Architect in the client.
- A server that is integrated with Jazz™ Team Server.
You can install Rational Programming Patterns V9.5.1 by updating version V9.5.
You can also complete a full installation of the new version.
