  1. At a command prompt, change to the directory where the oajcinstaller.jar is located.

  2. Enter the following command:

    java -cp oajcinstaller.jar com.ddtek.jdbc.oajcinstaller.Installer -ib {yes|no} -d {*install_dir*}

    where:

    -ib {yes|no}. If yes, the OpenAccess SDK 8.1 documentation library is installed.
    -d install_dir Specifies the full path, including the drive letter on Windows machines, to the JDBC Client installation directory.Note that if the directory path contains spaces, you must enclose the path name with double quotation marks, for example:
    -d "c:\Program Files\Progress\DataDirect\oajdbc81"
  3. If the JDBC Client was successfully installed, a message appears confirming the installation.

Example:

java -cp oajcinstaller.jar com.ddtek.jdbc.oajcinstaller.Installer -ib yes -d "C:\Program Files\Progress\DataDirect\oajdbc81"

This OpenAccess SDK command-line example performs the following actions:

  • Installs the OpenAccess SDK JDBC Driver
  • Installs the OpenAccess SDK Online Books (-ib yes)
  • Installs the JDBC driver to the installation directory (-d "C:\Program Files\Progress\DataDirect\oajdbc81")
