RE: Trial of RDi SOA

Rdi and RBD will share the eclipse shell, as long as all the parts use
the same jvm... IBM has released JVM updates in some of their service
releases, so be careful.

If you install from the standard trial packages, install all the parts
you want (Rdi, RBD, WAS, HATS), THEN update to the newest versions,
you'll be fine. The order you install the products matters too. I
usually go in this order: RBD, WAS, RDi, HATS.

There was a thread over a year ago on how to get the trial of RDi SOA,
(http://archive.midrange.com/midrange-l/200805/msg00031.html) is the
data here still relevant? Specifically, do I download the trial of RDi
(non-soa version) and also the trial of Rational Business Developer?



Do I then install them to the same location? Or will the second

recognize the first and extend it. Also, will this give me access to

the

It depends on what you need. I wanted to try EGL, and only needed RBD. I
also tried to make RDI coexist with RBD in a shared installation. That
was a disaster, but RBD stand-alone worked just fine. This was a couple
of months (as in 2) back, so things may be different now.
