simpapp
is a sample ATMI application that includes one client and one server. This application is distributed with the Oracle Tuxedo software. The server performs only one service: it accepts a lowercase alphabetic string from the client and returns the same string in uppercase.
This topic is a tutorial that leads you, step-by-step, through the process of developing and running a sample Oracle Tuxedo ATMI application. The following flowchart summarizes the process. Click on each task for instructions on completing that task.
Before you can run this tutorial, the Oracle Tuxedo ATMI client and server software must be installed so that the files and commands referred to are available. If the installation has already been done by someone else, you need to know the pathname of the directory in which the software is installed (TUXDIR
). You also need to have read and write permissions on the directories and files in the Oracle Tuxedo directory structure so you can copy simpapp
files and execute Oracle Tuxedo commands.
The instructions for the simpapp
tutorial are based on a UNIX system platform. While specific platform instructions for the UNIX operating system environment remain largely the same, instructions for performing tasks (such as copying simpapp
files or setting environment variables) on non-UNIX platforms (such as Windows 2003) may be different. For this reason, the examples used in the tutorial may or may not provide reliable procedures for your platform.
After you complete this tutorial, you will be able to understand the tasks ATMI clients and servers can perform, edit a configuration file for your own environment, and invoke tmadmin
to check on the activity of your application. You will understand the basic elements of all Oracle Tuxedo applications—client processes, server processes, and a configuration file—and you will know how to use Oracle Tuxedo system commands to manage your application.
Note: | The following instructions are based on a UNIX system platform. Instruction for non-UNIX platforms, such as Windows 2003, may be different. Examples used in the sample applications may vary significantly, depending on the specific platform. |
simpapp
and cd
to it:mkdir simpdir
cd simpdir
Note: | This step is suggested so you can see the simpapp files you have at the start and the additional files you create along the way. Use the standard shell (/bin/sh ) or the Korn shell; do not use csh . |
TUXDIR=pathname of the Oracle Tuxedo system root directory
TUXCONFIG=pathname of your present working directory/tuxconfig
PATH=$PATH:$TUXDIR/bin
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$TUXDIR/lib
export TUXDIR TUXCONFIG PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH
You need TUXDIR
and PATH
to be able to access files in the Oracle Tuxedo system directory structure and to execute Oracle Tuxedo system commands. On Sun Solaris, /usr/5bin
must be the first directory in your PATH
. With AIX on the RS/6000, use LIBPATH
instead of LD_LIBRARY_PATH
. On HP-UX on the HP 9000, use SHLIB_PATH
instead of LD_LIBRARY_PATH
.
You need to set TUXCONFIG
to be able to load the configuration file, described in Step 4: Editing and Loading the Configuration File.
simpapp
files: cp $TUXDIR/samples/atmi/simpapp/* .
Note: | It is best to begin with a copy of the files rather than the originals delivered with the software because you will edit some of the files to make them executable. |
$ ls
README env simpapp.nt ubbmp wsimpcl
README.as400 setenv.cmd simpcl.c ubbsimple
README.nt simpapp.mk simpserv.c ubbws
$
Note: | Except for the README files, the other files are variations of simp*.* and ubb* files for non-UNIX system platforms. The README files provide explanations of the other files. |
Review the ATMI client program source code:
$ more simpcl.c

buildclient
to compile the ATMI client program: buildclient -o simpcl -f simpcl.c
The output file is simpcl
and the input source file is simpcl.c
.

As can be seen, we now have an executable module called simpcl
. The size of simpcl
may vary.

You now have a file called TUXCONFIG

file is a new file under the control of the Oracle Tuxedo system.

Booting server processes ...
exec simpserv -A :
process id=24257 ... Started.
2 processes started.
$
The BBL is the administrative process that monitors the shared memory structures in the application. simpserv
is the simpapp
server that runs continuously, awaiting requests.
To execute your simpapp
, have the client submit a request.
$ simpcl “hello, world”
Returned string is: HELLO, WORLD
As the administrator, you can use the tmadmin
command interpreter to check an application and make dynamic changes. To run tmadmin
, you must have the TUXCONFIG
environment variable set.
tmadmin
can interpret and run over 50 commands. For a complete list, see tmadmin(1). The following uses two of the tmadmin
commands.
Note: | The greater-than sign (>) is the tmadmin prompt. |
