Installing the Client Development Kit for z/OS

This topic provides steps to install the Client Development Kit (CDK) for z/OS using command-line tools to configure and deploy client applications for WebSphere Application Server.

About this task

The Client Development Kit (CDK) for z/OS contains the following command-line tools that are used to configure and deploy client applications for WebSphere Application Server:
  • clientConfig

    The clientConfig command is used to start the Application Client Resource Configuration Tool (ACRCT). The most common task that you perform with the ACRCT is opening and modifying the components of enterprise archive (EAR) files.

  • clientUpgrade

    The clientUpgrade command migrates the V5.0.x and V6.0.x client resources to the V6.1 level resources.

  • endptEnabler

    The endptEnabler command enables a set of Web services within an EAR file.

  • Java2WSDL

    The Java2WSDL command maps a Java class to a Web Services Description Language (WSDL) file by following the Java API for XML-based Remote Procedure Call (JAX-RPC) specification.

  • WSDL2Java

    The WSDL2Java command is run against the WSDL file to create Java APIs and deployment descriptor templates according to the JAX-RPC and Web Services for Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) specifications.

  • wsdeploy

    The wsdeploy command adds WebSphere product-specific deployment classes to a Web services-compatible enterprise application EAR file or an application client Java archive (JAR) file.

  • EJBDeploy

    The EJB deployment tool provides a command-line interface (ejbdeploy) that you can use to generate enterprise bean deployment code. To learn more about this command line refer to the Application Server Toolkit information center.

  • UDDI Utility Tools

    The UDDI Utility Tools is a suite of functions that can be used to migrate, move, and copy UDDI Version 2 entities, including child entities and their respective Version 2 entity keys, into a Version 3 UDDI Registry.

The Client Development Kit is included with the WebSphere Application Server z/OS product and located in the following directory:
$WAS_HOME/downloads/ClientDevKit/setup.exe
When the Client Development Kit is installed, the directory looks as if it is a Windows platform directory.

To install the Client Development Kit:

Procedure

  1. Install and Customize your z/OS WebSphere Application Server.
  2. Locate the Client Development Kit executable file in the $WAS_HOME/downloads/ClientDevKit/ directory. FTP the setup.exe file in binary mode to your Windows-based client machine.
  3. Execute the setup.exe installation file.
  4. Follow the InstallWizard prompts to complete the installation.

What to do next

You are now ready to configure applications that can be deployed into the WebSphere Application server runtime.
