UMDS Quick Start
Running UMDS Example Applications

To run UMDS client example applications, perform the following platform and source language procedure.


Windows Java Example  <-

To run UMDS example Java applications on a Microsoft Windows machine, perform the following procedure.

  1. Save the openmdx-kernel jar file to UMDS [installdir].

  2. Locate the UMDS client jar file in [installdir]. It was placed there by the UMDS Client Installation.

  3. Open a Command Prompt and start a UMDS receiver connection to the server. Substitute the UMDS Server's IP address and port number for ip:port.

    java -cp [installdir]\[umdsjarfile];[installdir]\openmdx-kernel.jar umdsreceive -S ip:port mytopic
    

  4. Open a second Command Prompt and Start a UMDS source connection to the server for the same topic. Substitute the UMDS Server's IP address and port number for ip:port.
    java -cp [installdir]\[umdsjarfile];[installdir]\openmdx-kernel.jar umdssend -S ip:port mytopic
    

If there are problems, first check version compatibility by issuing the following command:

java -version

Compare the installed java version with the version in the UMDS jar file name. The jar file version number should be equal to or lower than the installed java version.
