10.1 Documentation Errata

This section describes documentation errata. It includes the following topics:

• Section 10.1.1, "Java Classes for Custom Policy Plug-in Must Use JDK 1.4.2"

• Section 10.1.2, "Incorrect Class Name in Custom Policy Example"

10.1.1 Java Classes for Custom Policy Plug-in Must Use JDK 1.4.2

The Oracle Application Server Release Notes, in the chapter titled "Managing Policies in Oracle Application Server Certificate Authority", describes how to develop custom policy plug-ins. The section titled Steps in Creating a New Policy Plug-in does not specify the version of JDK that should be used to compile Java classes for custom policy plug-ins. The version currently supported is JDK 1.4.2. Change Step 2 in the instructions to say:

"Save the java class implemented in step 1 and compile using JDK 1.4.2, after adding the $ORACLE_HOME/oca/lib/oca-1_3.jar file to the java CLASSPATH and obtaining the class file."

Using a different version of JDK may result in errors such as a "500 Internal Server Error."

10.1.2 Incorrect Class Name in Custom Policy Example

The Oracle Application Server Release Notes, in the chapter titled "Managing Policies in Oracle Application Server Certificate Authority", describes how to develop custom policy plug-ins. The example program listing in the section An Example of a Custom Policy Plug-in, Line 3 contains an incorrect class name:

3: import oracle.security.oca.policy.custom.OCACustomPolicyplugin; 

The correct class name is oracle.security.oca.policy.custom.OCACustomPolicyPlugin. Replace Line 3 with the following text:

3: import oracle.security.oca.policy.custom.OCACustomPolicyPlugin;
