Preparing to run the example:

 

If you are not using the Capscan OnDemand service, please make sure that you have installed the Capscan Pool Manager and that it is up and running.

 

 

Running the example:

 

1.       Open a Command Prompt.

 

2.       cd "C:\Program Files\Capscan\SDK\Matchcode Client\Java\Examples\SimpleExample "

                                                                                                                       

3.       Make sure capscan.jar and the example directory is in the CLASSPATH.

 

4.       javac SimpleExample.java

 

5.       java SimpleExample

 

6.       The example will connect to the Matchcode server, run a search and display the results.

 

 

Trouble-shooting and hints:

 

1.       If you are running on a LAN make sure that the Capscan Pool Manager is running correctly.  To do this you can use the PoolMan Admin application that is installed along with the Capscan Pool Manager.

 

2.       If you are using the Capscan OnDemand service make sure that you can see the Internet.

 

3.       If you are using a firewall make sure that it is not blocking this example or the Capscan Pool Manager.  By default the Capscan Client/Server uses port 27920 for sending and receiving data.

 

4.       Try installing and running the Matchcode DC application to test that the Capscan Pool Manger is working correctly.  The installation for Matchcode DC can be found on the CD under:

 

Api\mcd_cs\win32\client\dc.
