Setting up custom class files and JAR files

Custom class files and JAR files are mainly used for adding Receive/Send custom channels. The JAR or class files can also be used to call classes in your mappings, and even custom classes that are not available in IEC, by default.

When using class files, you must create the proper directory structure corresponding to the package of the class, for example, com.infor.test.custom.Custom.class. The Custom.class file must be located inside the directory .../com/infor/test/custom.

Use these guidelines:

• JAR file is local to a node where it is added.

  For multiple nodes or hosts that will use the JAR file, you must add the JAR file to each node.

• You can upload your Java codes in EC through custom JARs or custom classes.

• Before you can add custom class files, you must first set up the class package as a directory.

• When you import agreements that have a mapping requiring custom jar/files, you must extract the custom jar/files first in the classes folder under the PA Root Directory, for the import functionality to work.
