This chapter describes the installation method to install the functions:
CATIA V5 CAA APIs, DELMIA V5 CAA APIs and ENOVIA VPLM CAA APIs media contain all deliveries necessary to install all available APIs.
If you use a CAA vendor-written application, the CATIA V5 CAA APIs, DELMIA V5 CAA APIs or ENOVIA VPLM CAA APIs level must be at the same level as the applicable CATIA V5 , DELMIA V5 or ENOVIA VPLM level installed. In addition, the CAA vendor must supply the application rebuilt on that level.
Installation of CATIA V5 CAA APIs, DELMIA V5 CAA APIs, ENOVIA VPLM CAA APIs can be divided into three main steps:
Windows
Remark:
The CAA CD APIs contain build time data for both windows 32-bit and 64-bit platforms. Those CDs can be installed on 32-bit and 64-bit runtime installations.
UNIX
Remark:
To build AIX 64-bit CAA applications on top of AIX 64-bit CATIA, DELMIA, or ENOVIA DMU runtime, the standard CAA UNIX CD must now be used.
The CAA online documentation, also named CAA Encyclopedia, is installed with the CAA APIs. You can access it with an HTML browser at the following addresses:
<CATIA, DELMIA, or ENOVIA CAA APIs installation path>/CAAV5HomePage.htm
or
<CATIA, DELMIA, or ENOVIA CAA APIs installation path>/CAADoc/Doc/online/CAACenV5Default.htm
