SDK jar files

[monica]

I have a cognos 10.1.1 installation and an sdk of same version on this path <cognos>/sdk /java/lib
- axis.jar
- axisCognosClient.jar
- axisReportNetClient.jar
- cognos-axis.jar
- cognosClient.jar

Have these jar files . Please let me know among these what are the jar files I need to use and which must be removed.And also let me know do I need to copy these jars to any other location also...

Thank you,

You need to use all of the jar files listed. And you will have to copy them to a specific directory if you plan to deploy your Java application to a Machine that does not contain Cognos SDK. All of the files are required so you must not remove them, they are what makes up the Cognos Java SDK.

Hi Charles,

Thanks for your reply.Actually as per below IBM notes
https://www-304.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21441931

I got confused. Here they are saying not to use reportnet jar file ...so felt that may be causing issue..

Read the java sdk documentation.

I always favor cognos-axis.jar/cognosClient.jar over axis.jar/axisCognosClient.jar.  You do not use both sets.
Also, the documentation details many other jars that you'll need as well.  You don't really need them all, either.  Check out page 23.  You don't need mail.jar, for example... but it really depends on the calls you are making.
