  • I think that there is a java driver, not ure of the name.  If you can't find one though and a versed in web services, load XMLA (XML for Analysis) onto the Analysis Services server and you can then use web service calls to get metadata and data (Discover and Execute calls respectively).

    Cheers,

  • At the moment you have to download it as an SDK (from here) but with AS2005 it is the underlying protocol for communicting with the server, so it comes 'built in'. 

    Make sure you read the readme/install notes - you need to create a virtual dir which i don't think the installer does for you
