Update of SDK documentation for CA

The SDK for IBM Cognos has not been updated since 10.2.2. The current version of CA contains at least 12 new classes:

ShowHintsEnum
ReportMetadata
HistoryDetailMoserService
BaseReportMetadata
Exploration
Customization
DataSourceSchema
BaseModule
UploadedFile
Module
DataSet2
ReportCache

We are also unable to determine which existing classes have been changed, with new or deleted properties for example.

Standard Java docs are available for each class, but the SDK documentation had provided additional information such as class dependencies (parents & children), enum values, methods and more.

    The Cognos BI SDK has been feature frozen since the 10.2.2 release. The Cognos BI SDK is still supported, however, we have no plans to update the Cognos BI SDK or the accompanying Cognos SDK Developer Guide.

    There have been new APIs released with Cognos Analytics 11.x for administering the Cognos Analytics environment, data modules and dashboards. These new APIs are REST based and are documented in the CA 11.x documentation.
