Tools to Install

During the CA Gen Custom Installation, a list of available CA Gen components is displayed. The components that should be installed depend upon the type of work to be performed on the Windows workstation system.

You can generate, build, and assemble the application's EAR file from a Windows system. Or, you can generate EJBs on a Client/Server Encyclopedia, transfer the remote files to a Windows system, then build and assemble the application's EAR file. The following table lists the components of EJB creation:

Component

Notes

Workstation Construction Toolset

Provides the generators and Windows Build Tool needed to create a generated application.

Implementation Toolset

Provides the tools needed to build EJBs that were generated elsewhere.

Encyclopedia Construction Server

Can generate EJBs. However, they must be built by the Workstation Construction Tool or Windows Implementation Toolset.

Enterprise JavaBeans

A separately purchased option that adds the ability to generate EJBs to the Workstation Construction Tool or the Encyclopedia Construction Server.

Java RMI Middleware

This component is needed only at runtime. The cooperative flow runtime that used Java RMI to allow generated clients to interoperate with EJB Servers.

Java Web Services Middleware

 

This component is needed only at runtime. This is the cooperative flow runtime that uses Java SOAP Web Services to allow generated clients to interoperate with generated Web Service Servers.

CFB Converter Services to EJBs

This component is needed only at runtime. It provides support for non-Java clients such as GUI C or C and COM Proxies to interact with CA Gen EJBs. Must also install the Java RMI middleware.
