How to Install Third-Party Jar Files

Many protocols that iWay Service Manager supports require the presence of third-party jar files.

The j2ee.jar file is required for a number of iWay Service Manager features and functions across protocols.

J2EE is not a component that is normally distributed with JRE. If you are compiling an iSM exit that requires J2EE, Oracle provides a skeleton version that does not contain any method code. This version can be downloaded using the following link:

http://download.java.net/maven/2/javax/javaee-api/6.0/javaee-api-6.0.jar

The actual .jar file that contains the appropriate method code is licensed and supplied by the vendor of an application server (for example, Glassfish, JBOSS, and so on). The Apache Tomcat web server does not provide a J2EE, so you must locate the appropriate executable code. For example, you may need the mail.jar file from Oracle if you are using iSM mail systems.

There is a j2ee.jar file that is distributed by Oracle, which can be used. This file can be downloaded using the following link:

Download and install the software according to the instructions from the vendor and copy the j2ee.jar to [IWAYHOME]/lib.
