Authorization API components
The authorization API Java classes are installed as part of the IBM Verify Identity Access Runtime for Java component.
These classes communicate directly with the Verify Identity Access authorization server by establishing an authenticated, Secure Socket Layer (SSL) session with the authorization server process.
Table 1 list the files related to the authorization API that are installed as part of the IBM Verify Identity Access Runtime for Java component. The Javadoc information is listed in the table for completeness.

(and many others) |
Javadoc HTML documentation for the Java classes and methods provided with the Verify Identity Access Java runtime component. |
| JAVA_HOME/lib/ext |

The Java Archive (JAR) file which contains the classes and methods associated with the administration APIs. Note: When you use the pdjrtecfg command-line interface to configure
the Verify Identity Access Java runtime component to a
particular JRE, the archive file is copied to
JAVA_HOME/lib/ext.
There is no need to modify the CLASSPATH in your environment to access the classes and methods defined in this archive file. For the IBM WebSphere Application Server version 8.x JRE, put PD.jar in WAS_HOME/tivoli/tam and add it to the CLASSPATH when using the JRE standalone. For example, if you are using the JRE outside of an IBM WebSphere Application Server JVM. |

This file consists of a demonstration that illustrates the use of both the local
and remote modes of Verify Identity Access
administration and authorization APIs. The demonstration provides a graphical user interface for defining the various setup parameters. See the |
