How to specify library paths when using SiteMinder SDK with Tomcat (JNI java agent)?

When using the SiteMinder SDK with Tomcat, depending on the system, 1 or both following is done:

1. Specify a symbolic link to the SiteMinder SDK library in Tomcat's lib directory.
   
   
2. Specify the following in setenv.sh in the Tomcat startup shell.
   
   export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/{home_SDK}/bin64
export CAPKIHOME=/opt/CA/SharedComponents/R1280SP1/CAPKI

Environment

Release : 12.8.xx (Applicable to all the fully supported releases)
Component: SMPC (Siteminder Policy Server)

 

Resolution

For the JNI API Java Agent, make sure:

1. The LD_LIBRARY_PATH (Linux) has reference to the libraries libsmjavaagentapi.so, libsmerrlog.so, and libsmcommonutil.so; 
   
   
2. Ensure that can the JNI Java AgentAPI JAR file can be located when compiling or running an Agent that uses the Java Agent API. The JAR file is smjavaagentapi.jar;
   
   
3. Compile the Java Agent API application using javac. For an example, see java-build.bat or java-build.sh in the sample directory smjavaagentapi (1).
