The 2166xxx.exe is a stand-alone installation program, which can be used in conjunction with installable .jar files. If the installation program is executed without any installable .jar files in the same directory, then only two BBj components will be available for installation; ODBC and JDBC. If the installation program is executed with installable .jar files in the same directory, then those BBj components will be available during the install based on the available .jar files.
The installable .jar files are listed below:
*bbj.jar
*blm.jar
*ddbuilder.jar
*demos.jar
*enterprise_mgr.jar
*gml.jar
*guibuilder.jar
*resbuilder.jar
*thin_client.jar
**c-java_libs.jar
**doc.jar
**netbeans.jar
***webstart.jar
* = These components are automatically selected during the Typical Install when the appropriate .jar files are present.
** = These components may also be installed by selecting them through the Custom Install screen.
*** = The files contained in this .jar file are automatically installed when the webstart.jar file is present.
Before installation, ensure any previous versions of BBj are removed.
