The procedures, names, and paths in this manual use Windows conventions and default locations, unless otherwise indicated. For other operating systems and non-default locations, substitute accordingly. Names and case may vary between operating systems.

Java 2 Standard Edition (J2SE™) JDK 1.8 or higher is required for iWay components. OpenJDK 1.8 is also supported.

For Windows, Linux, and Solaris, you can download and install the latest supported JDK from:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

For other platforms, contact the appropriate vendor.

After installing the JDK, the Java command must be in your search PATH to install and run iWay. Ensure the following is in your PATH variable:

/java_home/bin

where:

java_home

Is the absolute path where the JDK is installed.

To determine if Java is properly installed and in your search PATH, execute the following at a command prompt or shell:

java -version

Information on the Java build appears, for example:

java version "1.8.0_152"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.8.0_152-b16)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 152-b16, mixed mode, sharing)

Note: The terms JDK™ and Java SDK™ are synonymous.

Many adapters require third-party libraries, such as JDBC drivers, provided by the vendor of the target data source, system, or protocol. You must copy these files into the iWay directory structure after you install iWay. More information is available in Preparing Adapters.
