Enterprise Communication Interface (ECI)
ECI Test Program, Libraries, and Include Files
ECI Test Executable
To test the ECI connection, an ECI test executable is available.
On the installation media you can find the following zip files:
- packages/<EP_MACH>/eci_test_files.zip (contains test executables eci_test and ecis_test)
- packages/<EP_MACH>/ecishared.zip (contains libraries epclt_eci and epshr_eci)
- packages/<EP_MACH>/epshared.zip (contains libraries epshr and libz)
Replace EP_MACH with your operation system specific value.
To install the ECI test executable, perform following steps:
Create a directory eci_test.
- [UNIX] mkdir /tmp/eci_test
- [Windows] md c:\temp\eci_test
Extract package eci_test_files.zip into the just created eci_test directory.
Extract package ecishared.zip into the eci_test directory.
Extract package epshared.zip into the eci_test directory
With the ECI test executable you can connect to the Java Client or an eci server:
Start a Java Client.
To check the used ECI port, click on the button .
In this sample the used ECI port is 44444.
Start the ECI test executable:
- Open a command shell.
- On Unix, set the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH
- [csh/tcsh shell] setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /tmp/eci_test/axalant/bin/<EP_MACH>
- [sh/bash shell] export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tmp/eci_test/axalant/bin/<EP_MACH>
- Change to the directory with the test executable.
- [UNIX] cd /tmp/eci_test/axalant/bin/<EP_MACH>
- [Windows] cd c:\temp\eci_test\axalant\bin\<EP_MACH>
- Enter command:
- [UNIX] ./eci_test 1 localhost 44444
- [Windows] eci_test_vc10.exe 1 localhost 44444
