WebSphere Business Integration Adapters API and run time

Make sure that you run this version of the adapter with WebSphere Business Integration Adapters runtime version 2.6.0.

The WebSphere Business Integration Adapters API JAR files and the associated scripts (CWConnEnv.bat and CWODAEnv.bat for Windows; CWConnEnv.sh and CWODAEnv.sh for UNIX platforms) are installed by the Adapter Framework Installer. Before installing the adapter, make sure that Adapter Framework is installed. If the installed version is not 2.6.0, you must download this version of the WebSphere Business Integration Adapters API. This section provides instructions for verifying the version of the API, downloading the latest version, and enabling the adapter to run on various versions of InterChange Server and Adapter Development Kit.

Verifying the runtime version

To check the version of the WebSphere Business Integration Adapters run time, locate the manifest file (ProductDir\lib\WBIA.jar) and open it in a suitable Java JAR editor. Look for the following lines:

Implementation-Title: "CWConnectorAPI"
Implementation-Version: 2.6.0

"Implementation-version" indicates the installed version of the API. If the version is not 2.6.0 or later, you must download version 2.6.0.
