Task description
See the developerWorks site for WebSphere Adapter Toolkit for
hardware and software prerequisites for the toolkit and for
specific information on how to integrate the toolkit into the
version of WebSphere Integration Developer or Rational
Application Developer for WebSphere Software that is installed
on your system.
Note: Make sure you select the tab for version 6.2 of the
WebSphere Adapter Toolkit.
You do not run an installer program for the toolkit. Instead, you
bring the toolkit, the samples, and the adapter foundation classes
(including the Javadoc for the Adapter Foundation Classes and
the Javadoc for DESPI and EMD) into WebSphere Integration
Developer by launching the Eclipse Update Manager.
To access the Javadoc, perform the following steps:
1. From the Rational Application Developer for WebSphere
Software or WebSphere Integration Developer menu, select
Help → Help Contents
2. Choose Websphere Adapter Toolkit documentation and then
select the Javadoc you want to view.
Note: To view the Javadoc for JCA 1.5, go to the download
section of the J2EE Connector Architecture site.
