Creating the necessary environment to start developing services with Rio is straight forward.

While not necessary, we recommend setting the RIO_HOME environment variable to point to the install location of Rio

This section will discuss setting up the environment in the context of creating a project.

Project Classpath

Note that setting up the classpath does not mean setting the CLASSPATH environment variable

If you are going to develop using pure POJOs, you do not have any project dependencies on Rio to develop your services (see the introduction). If you are going to use Rio or River (Jini) technology APIs, you will need the add the following JARs into your project's classpath:

JAR Location
Description
rio.jar
RIO_HOME/lib
Rio APIs
jsk-platform.jar
RIO_HOME/lib/apache-river/lib
River (Jini) API and interfaces
jsk-lib.jar 
RIO_HOME/lib/apache-river/lib
River (Jini) API and implementations found in jsk-platform.jar

Here is a screenshot of what the above looks like using IntelliJ
