How to get the API

The Client API archive files can be downloaded from the Extensions page of the Rational Asset Manager web client.

If you have the Eclipse client installed, you can create a plug-in project the requires the com.ibm.ram.client plug-in which will place the client API on the class path of your project.

Note that the following characters should not be used when creating asset types, categories, attributes, and other elements such as names:
+, -, &, |, !, (, ), {, }, [, ], ˆ, ", ˜, *, ?, :, \ 
GUIDs and the Version field of an asset must not contain the following characters or patterns:
  • These characters: #, %, +
  • This pattern: Any String that ends with a "\" (backslash)
    For example:
    • Valid: abc\\:acme\\:test\\:artifact\\:67753211073
    • Invalid: abc\\:acme\\:test\\:artifact\\:67753211073\
