SDK Packages

The following are some key packages in using the CA IAM CS SDK:

• com.ca.datamodel—Contains a library supporting loading and representation of data model metadata (XML documents conforming to the syntax spelled out in the datamodel.xsd schema) as Java objects.
• com.ca.jcs—Contains all classes that comprise the CA IAM CS implementation. CA IAM CS supports connectors which accept LDAP input at the top level and convert it into the native language of the endpoint system with which they communicate.
• com.ca.jcs.assoc—A collection of classes and interfaces which support the representation and processing of associations between objects.
• com.ca.jcs.cfg—A collection of classes used to configure CA IAM CS and its contained components.
• com.ca.jcs.enumeration—A collection of classes used to handle returning the results of SEARCH operations back to client applications.
• com.ca.jcs.filter—Contains components for representing, analyzing, and converting LDAP filters passed to search operations.
• com.ca.jcs.meta—Contains components which are metadata-driven or assist in the condensing of information derived from metadata to allow efficient processing.
• com.ca.jcs.processor—Contains components for the processing of LDAP operations like add, modify, search, and such. Three styles are supported: attribute-style, method-style, and script-style.
• com.ca.jcs.validator—Contains all support for writing and configuring pluggable validators.
• com.ca.jcs.converter—Contains all support for writing and configuring pluggable converters.
