Application Development Environment
On the client development system, the STDL compiler
is used to process the STDL source files and to produce
both support software that facilitates client program de-
velopment and the correct type of stub for the client
program. The STDL source files are generated by the
ACMS ADU compiler that is supplied with the ACMS
product.
Runtime System
The TP Web Connector runtime system uses ACMS
RPC to communicate with tasks on ACMS systems.
The TP Web Connector includes the TP Web Connector
gateway. The TP Web Connector gateway executes on
OpenVMS systems and allows the TP Web Connector
to call ACMS tasks.
Management Interface
The TP Web Connector provides a graphical user inter-
face to manage the parameters required for communi-
cations with tasks running on the TP systems.
TPware .NET Support
TPware .NET is an interface between the Windows
based client applications and the TPware Gateway
server, which in turn communicates with the ACMS sys-
tem. It belongs to the TPware product family and,
manages and monitors the ACMS applications from the
Windows platform. It has a set of API Client Services
that are referenced by the Windows based applications
to communicate with the ACMS system on OpenVMS.
These API Client Services form the TPware .NET Inte-
gration Class Library. The TPware .NET and the TP-
ware Gateway server are the points of contact on the
respective Windows and OpenVMS platforms.
Following are the features supported by the TPware
.NET framework:
1. Support for Desktop as well as Web based applica-
tions using ASP .NET in any of the languages sup-
ported by the Microsoft .NET Framework
