If you obtained CA Rule Engine distribution as a ZIP archive, installation only requires extracting it to the desired location. A new folder containing the CA Rule Engine distribution will be created at that location. In this guide, the distribution folder is referred to as aionjre_home.
If you obtained CA Rule Engine as a component of another product, please refer to your product documentation to determine the location of aionjre_home.
CA Rule Engine is compatible with JDK 1.4.2 or later. JDK 1.4.2 or later must be installed to use CA Rule Engine to develop inference enabled applications. To compile and run the samples using supplied scripts, Apache Ant 1.6.1 or later also must be installed and found in PATH.
You must ensure that the following jar files are found on CLASSPATH when developing and running your inference enabled application:
The aionjre.jar file is located in the aionjre_home folder. The others are included in the lib folder in the CA Rule Engine distribution for your convenience.
Examples of CLASSPATH settings are shown in sample batch files (for Windows) and corresponding shell scripts (for UNIX or Linux) provided in the samples folder in the CA Rule Engine distribution. For more information on the sample applications provided with CA Rule Engine, see Documentation and Samples. The sample batch or script files also illustrate the use of log4j configuration for CA Rule Engine. For more information on configuring log4j, see Configure Logging and Execute for CA Rule Engine.
The CA Rule Engine specific files needed for running the JSR-94 Technology Compatibility Kit (TCK) are located in the tckconfiguration folder in the CA Rule Engine distribution.
