Package Contents
To get started with the Filter SDK, unzip the package to a directory on your machine.
TIP: The Filter SDK packages for non-Windows platforms store the correct file permissions for the files in the SDK (for example, some files must be executable) . OpenText recommends that you unzip the SDK on the platform where you intend to use it. If you unzip the SDK on Windows and then copy the files to a non-Windows machine, the file permissions might be lost.
The Filter SDK contains:
- All the libraries and executables necessary for extracting text from a wide variety of formats.
-
The include files that define the C API. These files can be found in the
include
directory. - The Java API implemented in the package
com.verity.api.filter
contained in the fileKeyView.jar
. - The .NET API implemented in the namespace
KeyView.Filter
in the libraryfilter_dotnet.dll
. - The C++ API, which can be found in the
cppapi
folder. - The Python API, which can be found in the
pythonapi
folder. - Sample programs that demonstrate File Extraction and Filter functionality using the APIs.
- The files necessary to create a custom document reader, and the source for a sample document reader for UTF-8.
