Importing the PeopleSoft external dependencies

After you have imported the PeopleSoft resource adapter, you need to import the external dependencies. These external dependencies are JAR files that provide the resource adapter with the necessary support for deployment and other tasks.

The external dependencies JAR files are specific to the application. They must therefore be imported into the connector project.

The two JAR files that comprise the external dependencies are:

  • The component interface (CI) JAR file, which contains the CI Java API classes for the interfaces that will be exported.
  • The psjoa.jar file that contains PeopleSoft proprietary classes. (The psjoa.jar file must be the same version or release level as the PeopleSoft server that you will access.)
For the purpose of demonstrating how to import the external dependencies, it is assumed that the CI JAR file is named psftci.jar and that both it and the psjoa.jar file reside in your file system in the example path C:\resourceadapterci.

To import the external dependencies:

  1. From the File menu, select Import. The Import wizard opens.
  2. In the Select an import source list, select File system and click Next. The File System page opens.
  3. Beside the From directory field, click Browse. The Import from Directory window opens.
  4. In the Select a directory to import from list, navigate to the C:\resourceadapterci folder in your file system and select it.
  5. Click OK. The Import from Directory window closes.
  6. In the right pane of the File System page, select both the psftci.jar check box and the psjoa.jar check box.
  7. Beside the Into folder field, click Browse. The Import into Folder window opens.
  8. In the navigation tree, expand PeopleSoft and select connectorModule.
  9. Click OK. The Import into Folder window closes and the File System page of the Import wizard now resembles the following figure:

  10. Click Finish.
  11. In the Project Explorer view, expand Connector Projects, PeopleSoft, and connectorModule. The imported psftci.jar and psjoa.jar files should now appear under the connectorModule folder.
