Manifoldcf is not a library but is instead a full application. You do not want to be using a connector by itself; you need the rest of the application as well. You can configure a livelink connection either using the UI or the rest API. Please consult the documentation.

I'm writing code to build a connector to a LiveLink server. I have been looking at the online java docs for ManifoldCF's LiveLink connector, but I'm confused on how to use the API. It's my understanding that the class LiveLinkConnector from the package org.apache.manifoldcf.crawler.connectors.livelink can be used to connect to a LiveLink server. But this class seems to require configuration parameters that are set in the configParams class of the package org.apache.manifoldcf.core.interfaces. If this is the case, how can I set the configuration parameters of my LiveLink server connection using this approach? Also, is there a better approach to do this? I'm very unclear on how to write the connection. I am building an Eclipse based project and I have already done an ant build of all the ManifoldCF code necessary in order to use the API. I also have the lapi.jar in my build path, so I believe the necessary configurations to use the API are in place. I would greatly appreciate it if I can get some ideas on how to build the connector through the API. Example code would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Pranesh
