For a J2EE application client application and or Thin application client application to be launched using Java Web Start (JWS), the properties files bundled in Application Client for WebSphere Application Server must be installed in the Java Web Start. Use this tool to create those property JAR files. The Java Web Start client is used with platforms that support a Web browser.
Java Web Start is not supported on WebSphere Application Server for i5/OS. The buildClientLibJars tool copies the JAR files from the Application Client for WebSphere Application Server installation and creates a properties.jar file, which contains the properties files from the Application Clients installation properties directory to a specified location. When this property is created, the tool uses the value of keystore, storepass and alias to sign all the JAR files in the specified location.
Windows Usage: buildClientLibJars.bat target_dir keystore storepass alias
Unix Usage: buildClientLibJars.sh target_dir keystore storepass alias
Where:
target_dir Timearget directory where the Application
Clients library JAR files copied to.
keystore Specifies a keystore file.
storepass Specifies the keystore password.
alias Specifies an alias for the key object in the key file.
