Configure the environment for handling file attachments
use service components that send and receive file attachments, add to the workbench a set of libraries for file attachment support.Locate the following files, and copy them into the Java™ Runtime Environment (JRE) that the workbench and Rational Agent Controller use.
- activation.jar
- mail.jar
You can find these libraries in the com.ibm.rational.ttt.common.models.core plug-in, which is in RPTv8 installation directory. To configure the workbench to handle file attachments, perform the following steps.
To configure an agent computer that uses only the Rational Agent Controller and does not require access to the workbench, perform only step 1, and restart the Rational Agent Controller service.
- In the file system, locate the library files activation.jar and mail.jar in the com.ibm.rational.test.lt.models.ws plug-in to the directory of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) that Eclipse uses.
By default, the library files are located under the following directory: C:\Program Files\IBM\IBMIMShared\plugins\com.ibm.rational.ttt.common.models.core_version\lib\attachment
- Copy the library files into the jre/lib/ext of the JRE.
By default, this is the following directory: C:\Program Files\IBM\SDP\jdk\jre\lib\ext
- Add the following VM argument either to the Eclipse launch command line or to the eclipse.ini file: -vmargs -Dosgi.parentClassloader=ext
The eclipse.ini file is located in the same directory as the eclipse.exe launcher binary file that is used to run RPTv8.
