Oracle provides a number of sample Java programs (see Sample Programs) that demonstrate how the various classes belonging to the Security API are used. To use the security APIs or to run the sample programs, you must meet the following prerequisites:
Oracle's Hyperion® Foundation Services is running.
Run the programs from a machine that hosts at least one EPM System product.
epm_j2se.jar is added to system CLASSPATH. This file must be referenced as EPM_ORACLE_HOME/common/jlib/11.1.2.0/epm_j2se.jar, where EPM_ORACLE_HOME refers to a location such as C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1 on a Windows server.
The location of EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE is specified as a system environment variable or as a Java system property. For the current session, you can set this variable from the command prompt.
For example, for a Windows server:
EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE=C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1
A reg.properties file must be available within EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE, typically in the EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/config/foundation/11.1.2.0 directory.
