Re: Unable to download VMware vCloud SDK for Java

The URL found on landing page of the vCloud SDK for Java works for me, are you using this one: http://vmware.com/download/download.do?downloadGroup=VCDSDKJAVA100

 

The vCloud API is just another level of abstraction of the infrastructure and it actually sits on top fo the vSphere API. It's high level of abstraction that gets you to think about a vDC (Virtual Datacenter) versus a specific entity in your infrastructure. For more details, check out this Intro to the vCloud API video - http://communities.vmware.com/thread/228834 and here is a good FAQ with more info - http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-10659

Re: Unable to download VMware vCloud SDK for Java

Good morning,

 

I've been trying to download the vCloud SDK for Java, but the link seems to be broken and the connection just timeout. The link I'm using is the one on this page: http://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/developer/forums/vcloudsdkjava. I also tried the links mentioned in the previous post with no luck.

 

Anyone having the same issue? Is there any other way to get this SDK?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Victor

VMGomez,

 

Please check your internet connection in case there's something being blocked, both the vCloud SDK for Java 1.0 and 1.5 links all work for me.

 

Here's the vCloud SDK for Java 1.5
