Installing the plug-in for Eclipse and Rational Application Developer for WebSphere Software (RAD)

About this task

The AppScan® Source Client installation includes the AppScan Source for Development plug-in for Eclipse and Rational® Application Developer for WebSphere® Software (RAD) components. The installation also requires Eclipse Updates and the addition of the plug-in to your development environment.

Procedure

  1. Start the installation wizard.
  2. You are presented with a screen that allows you to select the national language that will be displayed in the installation panels. Select the language and click OK to proceed.
  3. After you launch the installation wizard, the Welcome - Installation Wizard panel opens and recommends that you quit any open applications. Click Next to begin the installation procedure.
  4. Select AppScan Source for Development for Eclipse, RAD, MobileFirst from the list of client components.

    Click Next advance to the next installation panel.

    Important: After the AppScan Source for Development plug-in installation, you must update the features from the Eclipse or Application Developer IDE.
  5. In the Installation Target Specification page, specify the installation directory. The default directories, by operating system, are:
    • 32-bit versions of Microsoft Windows:
      <SYSTEMDRIVE>:\Program Files\HCL\AppScanSource
    • 64-bit versions of Microsoft Windows:
      <SYSTEMDRIVE>:\Program Files (x86)\HCL\AppScanSource
    • Linux: If you are the root user, the Installation Wizard installs your software in /opt/hcl/appscansource. If you are not the root user, you can install the AppScan Source for Development Eclipse plug-in - which installs to <home_directory>/AppScan_Source by default.
    • macOS: /Applications/AppScanSource.app
    Important:
    • The installation directory name can only contain English characters. Folders with names containing non-English characters are not permitted.
    • If you are installing on Windows, you must have Administrator privileges to install AppScan Source components.
    • If you are installing on Linux, you must have root privileges to install AppScan Source server components.

    Click Next to advance to the next installation panel.

  6. In the language pack selection panel, choose the language packs to install. When you install a language pack, the AppScan Source user interface will display in that language when it runs on an operating system that is running that locale.

    By default, English is selected (and cannot be deselected). If the installation wizard is displaying a national language other than English (in other words, a language other than English was selected in the installation wizard welcome panel), that language will also be selected in this panel (however, it can be deselected).

    After you have selected the language packs that you want to install, click Next to advance to the next installation panel.

    Note: If you do not install a specific language pack, you will not be able to add that language post-installation.
  7. Review and accept the terms of the license agreement and then click Next to continue.
  8. Review the summary of installation options before copying files. Click Install. The installer copies files to the hard disk drive.
