Compiling a Generic Server Plug-In

To compile the generic server plug-in, the following external .jar files must be added to the project:

  • aims-spi.jar

  • ac-interfaces.jar

  • slf4j-api-1.7.24.jar

These files are located in the cms_install_dir\cms_portal\WEB-INF\lib directory, where cms_install_dir represents the installation directory of ActivID CMS.

Note: ActivID CMS includes the log4j bridge (log4j-over-slf4j-1.7.24.jar) on the server side, which means that users can use either slf4j or log4j in their code. However, the appender packages must be added to the logback.xml file to enable logging for the plugin package.
