Installation of SDKs
Distribution Package Content
The ActivID ActivClient (referred to as ActivClient) SDK is located in the \SDK folder of the ActivClient distribution package. The SDK is organized per API with one sub-folder for each supported API. Code samples are included with each API.
In each API folder, the content of the distribution package is organized by supported language with one folder for each language (Java, C, C++).
Each language folder in turn contains the necessary set of binaries, source files, and samples for that particular language.

BSI ContentInstallation Steps
Use the content of the ActivClient SDK distribution package (samples, header files, and so on) on the developer workstation. You do not need to distribute it to end-user environments.
ActivClient is also required on the developer station and provides the smart card middleware required for the ActivClient SDK. In the ActivClient setup, install the ActivClient Common Services (for PIV and BSI APIs) and Digital Certificate Services (for Microsoft Cryptography and PKCS#11 APIs). You can install additional components as desired.
For end-user environments, ActivClient installation is required and sufficient.
