Running Thin application client code on a client machine

This topic provides the steps necessary to run Thin application client code on a client machine.

Before you begin

You must install the Thin application client from the Application Client for WebSphere Application Server installation before performing this task. For more information, see Developing Thin application client code.

Procedure

  1. Set up the Thin application client environment. Run the setupClient command.
    [Windows]
    app_client_root\AppClient\bin\setupClient.bat
    [AIX] [Linux] [HP-UX] [Solaris]
    app_client_root/AppClient/bin/setupClient.sh
  2. Compile your client application. Run the Java compilation command.
    [Windows]
    "%JAVA_HOME%\bin\javac" -classpath "%WAS_CLASSPATH%; 
    <list_of_your_application_jars_and_classes> " -extdirs %WAS_EXT_DIRS% 
    <your_application_class>.java
    [AIX] [Linux] [HP-UX] [Solaris]
    $JAVA_HOME/bin/javac -classpath "$WAS_CLASSPATH: 
    <list_of_your_application_jars_and_classes>" -extdirs $WAS_EXT_DIRS 
    <your_application_class>.java
  3. Run a Java command to invoke your client application.
    [Windows]
    "%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java" %WAS_LOGGING% -Djava.security.auth.login.config="%WAS_HOME%\properties\wsjaas_client.conf"
    -classpath "%WAS_CLASSPATH%;<list_of_your_application_jars_and_classes>" 
    -Djava.ext.dirs="%JAVA_JRE%\lib\ext;%WAS_EXT_DIRS%;%WAS_HOME%\plugins;%WAS_HOME%\lib\WMQ\java\lib" 
    -Djava.naming.provider.url=iiop://<your_application_server_machine_name> 
    -Djava.naming.factory.initial=com.ibm.websphere.naming.WsnInitialContextFactory 
    "%SERVER_ROOT%" "%CLIENTSAS%" "%CLIENTSSL%" <fully_qualified_class_name_to_run>

    [AIX] [Linux] [HP-UX] [Solaris]
    $JAVA_HOME/bin/java $WAS_LOGGING 
    -classpath "$WAS_CLASSPATH: <list_of_your_application_jars_and_classes>" 
    -Djava.ext.dirs=$JAVA_JRE/lib/ext:$WAS_EXT_DIRS:$WAS_HOME/plugins:$WAS_HOME/lib/WMQ/java/lib"
    -Djava.naming.provider.url=iiop://<your_application_server_machine_name> 
    -Djava.naming.factory.initial=com.ibm.websphere.naming.WsnInitialContextFactory 
    $SERVER_ROOT $CLIENTSAS $CLIENTSSL <fully_qualified_class_name_to_run>
    For information on IIOP and corbaloc URLs, see Developing applications that use JNDI.
