HP OpenVMS systems

All patches required for the HP SDK for the Java™ Platform. Check the SDK documentation for the version of Java
you are installing to be sure that you have all prerequisite OpenVMS patches.

Installing on an ODS-5 enabled disk is required. Because of long file names and directory depth issues, the
installed code base and the accompanying documentation cannot be guaranteed to function properly in a non-ODS5
environment.

Removing Previous Version of XML Java Technology

There are two ways a user can remove the previous installation:

    1. Run XML-J$ROOT:[XML-J-2_0]UNINSTALL_XML-J-2_0.COM to remove the product.
        For example,

     @ XML-J$ROOT:[XML-J-2_0]UNINSTALL_XML-J-2_0.COM

2. The PCSI product installation will provide an option to delete the previous JAR based installation. It checks for
XML-J$ROOT:[XML-J-2_0]UNINSTALL_XML-J-2_0.COM and prompts for removal.

Downloading and Installing XML Java Technology

Downloading the Kit

The XML Java Technology for OpenVMS can be obtained in three different ways:

   1. OpenVMS Alpha via the e-Biz CDs for OpenVMS Alpha
   2. I64 Delta CDs for OpenVMS Integrity
   3. OpenVMS website for both OpenVMS Alpha and Integrity. To download the kit,
       please submit the registration form.

Expanding the Kit

To expand the XML Java Technology for OpenVMS JAR file, perform the following steps:

1. Create a temporary directory on an ODS-5 disk to hold the installation file that will be
extracted from the XMLJ-V0200-AXP.EXE or XMLJ-V0200-I64.EXE file. For example:

$ CREATE/DIRECTORY DISK$:[TEMP]

2. Copy XMLJ-V0200-AXP.EXE or XMLJ-V0200-I64.EXE to the temporary directory
created in Step 2

3. Set default to the temporary directory created in Step 2. For example:

$ SET DEFAULT DISK$:[TEMP]

4. Enter the following command to extract PCSI files

$ RUN XMLJ-V0200-AXP.EXE (For Alpha)
$ RUN XMLJ-V0200-I64.EXE (For Integrity)

The following is an example of expanding the self-extractable kit on OpenVMS Alpha and I64 respectively.

Installing the Kit

To install the XML Java Technology for OpenVMS kit, enter the following command:

$ PROD INSTALL XML_J

The following is an example of an installation log.

Configuration phase starting ...

You will be asked to choose options, if any, for each selected product and for any
products that may be installed to satisfy software dependency requirements.

HP VMS XML_J V2.0: XML Java Technology for OpenVMS is based on Apache Xerces-Java
Version 2.3.0 and Apache Xalan-Java Version 2.4.1

© Copyright 2007 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.

* This product does not have any configuration options.

Execution phase starting ...

The following product will be installed to destination:
HP VMS XML_J V2.0 DISK$ALPHASYS:[VMS$COMMON.]

Portion done: 0%...10%...80%...90%

XML-J$ROOT, XERCES-J$ROOT and XALAN-J$ROOT have been defined.
The following lines must be added to SYS$MANAGER:SYLOGICALS.COM so
that it will be defined each time the system is rebooted.

define/system/nolog/trans=concealed XML-J$ROOT DISK$ALPHASYS:[SYS0.SYSCOMMON.XML.]
define/system/nolog/trans=concealed XERCES-J$ROOT DISK$ALPHASYS:[SYS0.SYSCOMMON.
XML.Xerces-J-2_0.]
define/system/nolog/trans=concealed XALAN-J$ROOT DISK$ALPHASYS:[SYS0.SYSCOMMON.X
ML.Xalan-J-2_0.]

Verification of the installation can be performed using the XML-J Test Procedure.
To run the XML-J Test Procedure, enter the following command:

$ @XML-J$ROOT:[XML-J-2_0]XML-J-2_0-TP

The file XML-J$ROOT:[XML-J-2_0]XML-J-2_0_SetClassPath.com has been
provided to set up the Java class path for the XML-J Test Procedure.
It may also be useful to retain for your own XML applications.

After Installing the XML Java Technology for OpenVMS

After the installation is complete, perform the following tasks.

1. Optionally run the XML Java Test Procedure. To run the test procedure, enter the
following command:

$ @XML-J$ROOT:[XML-J-2_0]XML-J-2_0-TP

Interpreting the results of the XML Java Test Procedure

The XML Test Procedure compares the output from the tests with a set of benchmarks. Because of the
nature of the tests, some differences between the results and the benchmarks are to be expected. The
following describes the common differences which are expected to occur. These differences can be ignored
because they do not indicate a potential problem with the XML installation:

Xerces dom.Counter

The output of this program shows the time and count of elements, attributes, ignorable whitespaces, and
characters appearing in the document. Three times are shown: the parse time, the first traversal of the
document, and the second traversal of the tree. The times are not likely to match the times in the benchmark;
however, the element counts should match.

Note: The results produced by this program should never be accepted as true performance measurements.

Following is a session log containing a run of the XML Test Procedure followed by a section showing the
differences between the run log and supplied benchmark:

$@XML-J$ROOT:[XML-J-2_0]XML-J-2_0-TP

No test specified. All applicable tests will be run.
