The Java toolkit

The IBM® Cognos® Software Development Kit includes a Java™ toolkit that is based on Apache Axis. You can use the Java toolkit to interact with the Software Development Kit. For more information about Apache Axis, see the Apache Web site.

The IBM Cognos Software Development Kit CD includes the Javadocs documentation, which can be found in installation_location/sdk/java/doc/cognos/javadoc. Javadocs provides language-specific examples of accessor methods so that you can retrieve and set properties for the BI Bus API objects.

To build and run Software Development Kit clients using the IBM Cognos Software Development Kit Java toolkit, you need a Java Development Kit.
