8.1.1.2 DLI and TSI Configuration Process

This section summarizes the process for configuring DLI sessions and TSI connections.

DLI and TSI text configuration files are used as input to the

dlicfg and tsicfg preproces-

sor programs to produce binary configuration files which are used by the

dlInit and

dlOpen functions. For embedded ICPs, only a DLI configuration file is used (not a TSI

configuration file).

During your client application development and testing, you might need to perform

DLI configuration repeatedly (as well as TSI configuration for a Freeway server).

The DLI and TSI configuration files provided with the product are listed in Table 8–2.

The DLI and TSI configuration procedures are summarized as follows. Keep in mind

that TSI configuration does not apply to an embedded ICP environment.

1. For a Freeway server, create or modify a TSI text configuration file specifying the

configuration of the TSI connections (for example,

spsaltcfg in the

freeway/client/test/sps directory).

2. Create or modify a DLI text configuration file specifying the DLI session configu-

ration for all ICPs and serial communication links in your system (for example,

spsaldcfg in the freeway/client/test/sps directory).
