Server Smalltalk Guide : Using the Java/Smalltalk RMI Mapping Wizard : Setting up the VisualAge for Java Remote Access Tool to API and tool servlet interface
Setting up the VisualAge for Java Remote Access Tool to API and tool servlet interface
The VisualAge for Java Remote Access to Tool API allows you to retrieve Java information from the servlet interface for the RMI wizard.
To set up the VisualAge for Java Remote Access to Tool API servlet interface, follow these steps:
1. Install VisualAge for Java.
2. Start the VisualAge for Java Workbench.
3. Select Windows>Options from the menu bar in the VisualAge for Java Workbench window. The Options dialog appears.
4. In the left-hand column of the Options dialog, click Remote Access to Tool API. The Remote Access to Tool API page of the Options dialog appears.
5. Select Start Remote Access to Tool API .
6. Click OK. To prevent Remote Access from starting automatically, deselect the Start Remote Access to Tool API checkbox.
7. In the left-hand column of the Options dialog, click Resources. The Resources page of the Options dialog appears.
8. Click Edit... to add directories to the Workspace class path. Adding directories to your class path allows VisualAge for Java servlet interface to find Java classes in those directories.
a. Select Add Directories... to add a directory from which you will need to access Java classes.
b. Click OK.
Add all the directories from which you will need to access Java classes.
9. Copy the RmiWizardServlet.class, RmiWizardServletStrings.class, and JavaTypeGenerator.class files from the \vast\java\sstjava.zip file to the following path:
IBMVJavaRoot\ide\TOOLS\com-ibm-ivj-toolserver\servlets\com\ibm\sst
where IBMVJavaRoot is the directory where VisualAge for Java is installed. Once the RMIWizardServlet is in the servlets directory, it is available to the Remote Access to Tool API.
