Setting Up Client Machines to Access C++ APIs

To set up your client machine to access the component interface API using C++:

1. Install the PeopleSoft PeopleTools on your file server.

   See PeopleSoft 9.2 Application Installation for your database platform.

2. Set the environment variable PS_HOME to point to the installed PeopleSoft PeopleTools directory (for example, c:\pt860).

3. Set the environment variable PATH to include the directory containing jvm.dll and the directory containing the PeopleTools client binaries.

   For example, %PS_HOME%\bin\client\winx86; or, if the PeopleTools installation is done locally, the path is <PS_HOME>\jre\bin\client.

4. Install the JVM supplied with the Oracle JDK. The JVM is located in the %PS_HOME%\JRE directory.

5. Set the environment variable CLASSPATH to include the psjoa.jar file (typically <PS_HOME>\class\psjoa.jar).
