Java setup for Linux and UNIX operating systems
Use this procedure to setup the Java™ samples on Linux® and UNIX operating systems.
Procedure
-
Install a Java Development Kit (JDK). To determine the
supported Java versions, see IBM
Cognos Analytics 11.0.0 Supported Software Environments
(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27047186). Select your product and product version
and create a report for related software. Choose Development Tools under Supported software.
The report that is generated lists the supported Java versions.
- Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable to point to the location where the JDK is installed.
- Edit installation_location/sdk/java/Common/CRNConnect.java by locating the
line
public static String CM_URL = "http://localhost:9300/p2pd/servlet/dispatch";
and replacing
localhost:9300
with the name and, if necessary, port number of your IBM® Cognos® dispatcher. - If you want to compile all the samples, edit
installation_location/sdk/java/build-samples.sh and change the lines
CRN_HOME=/usr/cognos/xxx JAVA_HOME=/c/j2sdk1.5
so that they point to the locations where JDK and the IBM Cognos Analytics server and the JDK are installed, respectively.
- If you want to compile individual samples, edit
installation_location/sdk/java/sample_name/build.sh and change the lines
CRN_HOME=/usr/cognos/xxx JAVA_HOME=/c/j2sdk1.5
so that they point to the locations where JDK and the IBM Cognos Analytics server and the JDK are installed, respectively.
- Compile the Java samples by running build-samples.sh (to compile all samples) or build.sh (to compile an individual sample).
