The CADK runs on the same machine as the rest of the Endeca Platform Services components, and has two specific requirements in addition to those required by Platform Services.
Note
For details on the Endeca Platform Services component requirements, see Supported Environments and Compatibility.
In particular, the CADK has these requirements:
The machine you are running the CADK on must have the Java 2 Platform Standard Edition 7.0 (aka JDK 1.7) installed. You will have the correct version of JDK with the Platform Services default installation, because it includes a suitable version of the JDK in the
$ENDECA_ROOT/j2sdk
directory.If you intend to use the build script provided with the CADK, you must have Apache Ant version 1.7.1 or later installed.
