Who should use this Guide
This guide has been written for developers who will be using LANSA Integrator, in particular the Java Service Manager, to interact with Java classes (programs).
It is assumed that the reader has some knowledge of the target operating system (for example i5/OS, Windows or Linux). If you are developing your own services or Java classes, you must have a working knowledge of Java.
If you are a LANSA developer and will be using the Java classes shipped with the Java Service Manager, detailed knowledge of Java is not required. RDML programming knowledge is a prerequisite.
A fundamental understanding of Java and the Java virtual machine environment is an asset in understanding the overall architecture and operation of the Java Service Manager.
For information about installing LANSA Integrator, refer to the Guide, the Installing LANSA on Windows Guide or the Installing LANSA on Linux Guide. If you are installing LANSA Integrator with no other installation site in your vicinity, please refer to the Installing LANSA Integrator Guide.
