Is installation of lapixxxx.exe required?

We want to deploy J2EE applications on a Oracle 9iAS server.If you want to use the Livelink JAVA Lapi, is the installation of Lapixxxx.exe required on the 9iAS server? Or is it enough to include the JAVA class-files (jar) in your Java-project?

Message from chris meyer via eLinkFor Java LAPI you only need the com/opentext/api in your classpath. The remaining files are not required.cheers,chriseLink Discussion: LAPI Discussion wrote:>Is installation of lapixxxx.exe required?>Posted by Stalman, Fokke on 02/18/2004 10:40 AM>>We want to deploy J2EE applications on a Oracle 9iAS server.>>If you want to use the Livelink JAVA Lapi, is the installation of Lapixxxx.exe required on the 9iAS server?

Thanks for your reply.The java-application is not running on the Livelink-server but on a different machine (Oracle 9iAS server)I asked this because someone told me that the JAVA API to initiate a workflow in Livelink is not 100% JAVA but is using DLL's. That's why I need to intall a LAPI executable on the Oracle 9iAS applicationserver.Now I'm trying to find out if this really necessaryIs it possible to copy the classfiles from the \com\opentext\api directory from the Livelinkserver to the applicationserver (and add the dir to the classpath)?Or is it possible to add the <<Livelinkserver>> \com\opentext\api in my classpath on the applicationserver? (Using a share)Or do I have to install LAPI on the applicationserver?Kind regards,Fokko

The Java API to initiaite a workflow is pur Java. It does not use DLLs.If you are using LAPI 9.1sp4 or 9.2.0, you can copy the lib/lapi.jar file to yoru application server. Otherwise, you can copy the class files (or create your own jar file) to the application server.Note that you should not copy the class files from \com\opentext\api from the Livelink server support directory. You should copy the files from the LAPI installation bin directory.You get the LAPI class and jar files by installing the Livelink SDK.
