1.7. PicketLink Installer
The PicketLink Installer is a simple Apache Ant script that applies all the necessary changes to your JBoss Enterprise Application Platform or WildFly installation, including:
-
Updates the PicketLink module with the latest libraries.
Important
The installer is not a required step in order to get you started with PicketLink. But if you want the PicketLink module updated with a specific version(in order to avoid ship the libraries inside your deployment) in your server installation, it can be very useful.
The installer can be obtained from http://downloads.jboss.org/picketlink/2/2.7.0.CR1/picketlink-installer-2.7.0.CR1.zip. Once you've downloaded, extract the ZIP file, enter the directory that was created and execute the following command:
ant
Now you should be prompted for the full path of your JBoss Application Server installation.
