Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8.1 2005Q2 Update 2 Developer's Guide

ProcedureTo use the package-appclient script bundled with the Application Server

  1. Under install-dir /bin directory, run the package-appclient script.

    For details, see the Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8.1 2005Q2 Update 2 Reference Manual.

    This creates an appclient.jar file and stores it under install-dir/lib/appclient/ directory.


    Note –

    The appclient.jar file provides an application client container package targeted at remote hosts and does not contain a server installation. You can run this file from a remote machine with the same operating system as where it is created. That is, appclient.jar created on a Solaris platform does not function on Windows.


  2. Copy the install-dir /lib/appclient/appclient.jar file to the desired location.

    The appclient.jar file contains the following files:

    • appclient/bin - contains the appclient script used to launch the ACC.

    • appclient/lib - contains the JAR and runtime shared library files.

    • appclient/lib/appclient - contains the following files:

      • sun-acc.xml - the ACC configuration file.

      • client.policy file- the security manager policy file for the ACC.

      • appclientlogin.conf file - the login configuration file.

      • client.jar file - created during the deployment of the client application.

    • appclient/lib/dtds - contains sun-application_client-container_1_0.dtd, which is the DTD corresponding to sun-acc.xml.
