Configuring an environment for developing and running Configuration Manager Proxy applications

Before you start:

The Configuration Manager Proxy (CMP) is a set of Java classes that are packaged in a single JAR file. To run or develop Java applications that use the CMP (CMP applications) the following prerequisites are required in your environment:
To set up a computer in preparation for building and running CMP applications, you must configure your CLASSPATH so that it includes the WebSphere MQ Classes for Java and the CMP files.

You can run CMP applications and, therefore, control Configuration Managers on machines that do not have a WebSphere Message Broker product installed. For more information, see Configuring environments without the broker component installed.

ConfigManagerProxy.jar contains the English message catalog for displaying broker (BIP) messages from the event log of the Configuration Manager. If you want a CMP application to display broker messages in a language other than English, you also need to add the directory that contains the localized message catalogs to your CLASSPATH, for example, C:\Program Files\IBM\MQSI\6.0\messages.
