Preface

This guide describes how to create code that will perform sealing and related tasks for protecting the content of files under Oracle IRM control.

Audience

This guide is for developers who want to create tools for sealing and unsealing protected content, or who want to adapt existing tools to support content protected by Oracle IRM. Users of this guide need basic familiarity with Oracle IRM, should be competent Java developers familiar with a Java IDE, and should know how to call web services from Java.

Documentation Accessibility

Our goal is to make Oracle products, services, and supporting documentation accessible to all users, including users that are disabled. To that end, our documentation includes features that make information available to users of assistive technology. This documentation is available in HTML format, and contains markup to facilitate access by the disabled community. Accessibility standards will continue to evolve over time, and Oracle is actively engaged with other market-leading technology vendors to address technical obstacles so that our documentation can be accessible to all of our customers. For more information, visit the Oracle Accessibility Program Web site at http://www.oracle.com/accessibility/.

Accessibility of Code Examples in Documentation

Screen readers may not always correctly read the code examples in this document. The conventions for writing code require that closing braces should appear on an otherwise empty line; however, some screen readers may not always read a line of text that consists solely of a bracket or brace.

Accessibility of Links to External Web Sites in Documentation

This documentation may contain links to Web sites of other companies or organizations that Oracle does not own or control. Oracle neither evaluates nor makes any representations regarding the accessibility of these Web sites.

Access to Oracle Support for Hearing-Impaired Customers

Oracle customers have access to electronic support through My Oracle Support or by calling Oracle Support at 1.800.223.1711. Hearing-impaired customers in the U.S. who wish to speak to an Oracle Support representative may use a telecommunications relay service (TRS). Information about the TRS is available at http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/consumerfacts/trs.html, and a list of telephone numbers is available at http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro/trsphonebk.html. International hearing-impaired customers should use the TRS at +1.605.224.1837. An Oracle Support engineer will respond to technical issues according to the standard service request process.

The following conventions are used throughout this guide:

• The notation <Install_Dir> is used to refer to the location on your system where Oracle IRM Server is installed.

• Forward slashes (/) are used to separate the directory levels in a path name. This is true when referring to files on a Windows file system or on a UNIX system. A forward slash will always appear after the end of a directory name.
