Level II Developer’s Toolkit
Major Level II Toolkit Changes for 6.0
SPECTRUM Software Release Notes Page 117
• Implementation of a gateway between SPECTRUM and another
network management system using the Asynchronous
SpectroSERVER API. A gateway allows the sharing of alarm
information between network management systems and allows
centralized management of a network whose subcomponents are
managed by different network management systems.
• Development of new intelligence circuits that add new or customized
management functions to SPECTRUM using the Inference Handler
API. Inference handlers provide the procedural knowledge that
controls how a model type reacts to changes in its environment.
Creating an inference handler requires the development of C++ code
that registers the inference handler to monitor environmental
conditions and defines the model type’s reaction to changes in these
conditions.
Major Level II Toolkit Changes for 6.0
This section describes new features for the Level II toolkits.
1. In SSAPI, two CsMailService object constructors are commented; these
constructors are scheduled for deprecation in a future release. Do not
use these constructors.
2. The Level 2 Toolkits now include the following portability headers:
• fstream.h
• iomanip.h
• ios.h
• iosfwd.h
• iostream.h
• istream.h
• ostream.h
• strstream.h
In order for you to do any development work on either platform, you
must use the Aprisma-developed portability layer (instead of directly
