Quick Start: Creating search rules using the Java API

The following Java code example creates two text patterns that the Output service searches for. The first text pattern is Mortgage. If found, the Output service uses the form design named Mortgage.xdp. The second text pattern is Automobile. If found, the Output service uses the form design named AutomobileLoan.xdp. If neither text pattern is located, the Output service uses the default form design named Loan.xdp.

/*

 * This Java Quick Start uses the following JAR files

 * 1. adobe-output-client.jar

 * 2. adobe-livecycle-client.jar

 * 3. adobe-usermanager-client.jar

 * 4. adobe-utilities.jar

 * 5. jbossall-client.jar (use a different JAR file if LiveCycle ES is not deployed

 * on JBoss)

 * 

 * These JAR files are located in the following path:

 * [LiveCycleES root]/LiveCycle_ES_SDK/client-libs

 * 

 * For complete details about the location of these JAR files, 

 * see "Including LiveCycle ES library files" in Programming with LiveCycle ES
