Setting Up Your Development Environment for Java

This section explains how to set up the development environment to implement your IP in Java for a third-party SQL engine. Follow this procedure to set up source code, build files, schema, and OpenAccess SDK service for your IP.

To implement a new IP, you must setup the required source files for your IP to allow you to compile and create a Java class file. The IP module is loaded by the OpenAccess SDK Server for the client/server version or by the OpenAccess SDK Local Server for the local version. The OpenAccess SDK includes JAR files and templates necessary to build your IP.

Setting up to develop a new IP is a three step process:

1. Set up the source for your IP to allow the IP module to be built. See Setting Up an IP Source and Schema for more information.
2. Configure an OpenAccess service for your data source using the OpenAccess SDK Manager. See Setting Up an OpenAccess SDK Service and Data Source for more information.
3. Perform a test connection to your data source from an OpenAccess SDK client. See Connecting to Your Data Source for more information.
