Verifying Deployment

Procedure

Prerequisites: You must first complete the procedure that is found at Installing Platform SDK.

Start of procedure

1. Use your file manager to locate the destination directory for the Platform SDK installation. It will be assumed that the default location, which is the C:\Program Files\GCTI\Platform SDK for <.NET/Java> 8.1 directory, was used for this procedure.
2. Confirm that your Platform SDK components look similar to what is shown in the following image:
   
3. Examine each directory (including the root installation directory) to confirm its contents. The tables below give a description of the expected result for .NET and Java installations.

End of procedure

Folder Contents for a .NET Installation

Folder	Contents
\	The root directory contains the following two files: ip_description.xml—This file contains data for the read_me.html file. read_me.html—This Read Me file identifies the build number, platform compatibility, and a link to the latest Release Note.
\ApplicationBlocks	Contains one subdirectory for each application block that is included with this release of Platform SDK. Each subdirectory is a self-contained unit that contains all files required for that application block. Subdirectories typically include Visual Studio solution files and the following folders: QuickStart—A small code sample that shows the application block in action. (Not provided for all application blocks.) Src—Source code for each application block is provided for you to use as-is, or to customize as needed.
\Bin	This directory holds the .NET libraries (as both .dll and .xml files) for all APIs and application blocks contained in the .NET version of Platform SDK, including the Core and Commons namespaces.
\Doc	This directory stores the combined Platform SDK API Reference (in .chm format). This document contains detailed information about how to develop content using the Platform SDKs. A second .chm file in this folder contains stand-alone documentation for the deprecated Packaged Statistics SDK.
\Xsd	This directory contains XML Schema Definition files that define the structure of the serialized messages used by the Platform SDKs.

(Not provided for all application blocks.) src—Source code for each application block is provided for you to use as-is, or to customize as needed.
\doc	There are two subdirectories containing documentation: The api subdirectory stores the combined Platform SDK API Reference (as expanded JavaDoc files for Windows, or in the api.jar archive for UNIX). This document contains detailed information about how to develop content using the Platform SDKs. • The packagedstatisticsdeprecated directory contains stand-alone documentation for the deprecated Packaged Statistics SDK.
\lib	This directory contains the Java archive (.jar) files for all APIs and application blocks contained in the Java version of the Platform SDK, including: commons.jar, connection.jar, kvlistbinding.jar, kvlists.jar, protocol.jar, and system.jar.
\thirdparty	This directory contains required third-party components necessary for working with the Platform SDKs.
\xsd	This directory contains XML Schema Definition files that define the structure of the serialized messages used by the Platform SDKs.
