To run AS/400 Toolbox for Java, the AS/400 system to which you are connecting must be running one of the following:
When you
want to run a Java program that uses AS/400 Toolbox for Java classes on the
AS/400 Java virtual machine (JVM), make sure to use the jar file that includes
AS/400 native optimizations. For more information, see Note
1 in Jar files.
If you are going to use the spooled file viewer functions (SpooledFileViewer class) of AS/400 Toolbox for Java, you must ensure that host option 8 (AFP Compatibility Fonts) is installed on your AS/400.
Also, the Host Servers option of OS/400 must be installed and started on AS/400.
Note: SpooledFileViewer, PrintObjectPageInputStream, and PrintObjectTransformedInputStream classes work only when connecting to V4R4 or later systems.
The print support in AS/400 Toolbox for Java requires additional function in the OS/400 print server.
Ensure that the QUSER profile is enabled and has a valid password. To do this, enter DSPUSRPRF USRPRF(QUSER) on an AS/400 command line. The resulting display shows the status for QUSER.
Start the OS/400 host servers by running two commands from an AS/400 command line:
The TCP/IP Connectivity Utilities for AS/400 licensed program, 5769-TC1
,
is installed on the AS/400.
For more information on host server options and TCP/IP, see the TCP/IP
topic in the AS/400e Information Center and the OS/400 TCP/IP Configuration and Reference, SC41-5420 .
If you are going to use secure sockets layer (SSL), you need to install the following:
Note: AS/400 Client Encryption licensed program is backward
compatible with Cryptographic Access Provider licensed program. In
other words, when 5769-CE3 is installed, you can use 5769-AC3 or 5769-AC2.
SSL connections perform slower than connections without encryption and you can only run them from an SSL capable server, V4R4 or later.
For more information on SSL, see Secure sockets layer.
Note: Like the SpooledFileViewer, PrintObjectPageInputStream, and PrintObjectTransformedInputStream classes mentioned above, full Blob and Clob (JDBC) support and SSL are available only when connecting to V4R4 and later AS/400 systems.
