Introducing

HP

Software Integration

SocketsML for full integration

HP Software Integration Sockets/

XL

(P/N 92616A) is a high-level

software tool set that enables full

integration of existing or new ap-

plications with little or no modifi-

cation to the application or its

data structures. HP Software

Integration

SocketslXL combines

comprehensive application-to-

application communications ca-

pabilities with data manipulation,

software process control, and

communication across a LAN.

The product is supported on

HP MPE XL platforms and can

function with HP

Sockets/UX

(P/N 92568A).

Application communication and

data translation features

Comprehensive, table- based

(sources and destinations that

are specified by identifiers rather

than network addresses and can

be changed without modifying

source code)

application-to-appli-

cation communications

-

pro-

vides file and message transfer,

Additional features

-

locaY

remote program control; 12 data

access routines to simplify build-

ing of application interfaces

(adaptors); administration of the

integrated environment; and de-

velopment aids

-

simulation of

interfaces, and data and error

logging.

Substantial reduction of

integration and maintenance

effort

Once an interface has been speci-

fied, HP Sockets can save approxi-

mately 50% or more of interface

coding and testing time. The num-

ber of lines of code for applica-

tion interfaces can be reduced by

between approximately 60 and

80%. Since HP Sockets interfaces

ing, random or sequential mes-

sage access, guaranteed delivery,

tion,

messaging, and destructive/

nondestructive message reads

High-performance data transla-

tion, manipulation, record

reformatting

-

resolves data

differences en route without

change to the application; handles

language-specific differences

(C, FORTRAN, Pascal, COBOL),

record restructuring, overflow/

underflow handling, truncation

and padding, data type conversion,

alignment conversion, adding and

deleting fields, initializing unused

fields, assigning constraints to

fields, configuration language that

specifies record formats to the

sender and receiver, and changes

to one application process that

only requires changes to HP Sock-

ets data definition and manipula-

tion tables.

do not cause rewrites to existing

application code, projects can be

implemented one step at a time,

reducing the hurdle of initiating

an integration project.

There is little to no impact on

existing software applications.

HP Sockets allows integration of

applications without altering the

internal data models, thereby pro-

tecting investments in existing

applications.

Unparalleled flexibility in

software configurations

Interface programs can be con-

structed that do not need source

code changes when the following

interface characteristics are

changed: network address of send-

ing or receiving application, type

of CPU on which the other appli-

cation resides, invocation and

execution parameters for process

control, communication buffer

sizes (impacting performance),

and record formats at sending or

receiving end.
