How Do I Initialize Informatica Address Verification?

If you are using a C language APIs, you must call

AD_Initialize()

AD_InitializeW()

functions to initialize Informatica Address Verification. If you are using Java APIs, call the

AddressDoctor.initialize

function. The initialization function evaluates the settings and configures the engine accordingly.

You can call other functions such as

AD_GetAddressObject()

only after the initialization function is successful. If the initialization failed, Address Verification returns an error code of -1300.

The following example shows a sample code for C API.

AD_Initialize(
	"<?xml version='1.0' encoding='iso-8859-1' ?>\n"
	"<!DOCTYPE SetConfig SYSTEM 'SetConfig.dtd'>\n"
	"<SetConfig>\n"
	"<General />\n"
	"<UnlockCode>(Enter Code here)</UnlockCode>\n"
	"<DataBase CountryISO3='ALL' Type='BATCH_INTERACTIVE' Path='/ADDB'
	PreloadingType='NONE'/>\n"
	"</SetConfig>\n",
	NULL,
	NULL,
	NULL
);

Alternatively, you can store the

SetConfig.xml

in an external file. In such cases, you can use the following initialization call.

AD_Initialize( NULL,
	"SetConfig.xml",
	NULL,
	NULL
);

The following example shows a sample code Java API.

// Initialize the Engine using the 'Direct' API
	AddressDoctor.initialize(
	"<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-16LE'?>\n" +
	"<!DOCTYPE SetConfig SYSTEM 'SetConfig.dtd'>\n" +
	"<SetConfig>\n" +
	"<General WriteXMLEncoding='UTF-16LE' />\n" +
	"<UnlockCode>(Enter Code here)</UnlockCode>\n" +
	"<DataBase CountryISO3='ALL' Type='BATCH_INTERACTIVE' Path='/ADDB' PreloadingType='NONE'/>\n" +
	"</SetConfig>",
	null,
	null,
	null
);

Alternatively, you can store the

SetConfig.xml

in an external file. In such cases, you can use the following initialization call.

// Initialize the Engine using the 'XML' API
 AddressDoctor.initialize(
 null,
 “SetConfig.xml”,
 null,
 null
);
