Configuring the Software Development Kit

To configure the Software Development Kit, follow this process:

• If you want to run the Framework Manager script player from outside the bin directory, configure the FM_INI_FILE_PATH environment variable as a system variable on a Microsoft Windows operating system. The environment variable must point to the Framework_Manager_location\configuration\fm.ini directory.
• To allow the browsing or import of system objects such as tables, views, synonyms, stored procedures, or functions from a relational database in Framework Manager, edit the entry for ImportDatabaseSystemObjects in your fm.ini file.

  By default, ImportDatabaseSystemObjects is set to FALSE. Users can see only the user tables in the import and expression editor dialog boxes. To allow browsing or import of system objects, set the preference to TRUE.

• Set up the samples for IBM Cognos Business Intelligence and Framework Manager.

  For more information, see the Installation and Configuration Guide for your IBM Cognos product.
