   Tutorials for Developing a BEA Tuxedo Application

Before Developing Your BEA Tuxedo Application

Before you begin developing your BEA Tuxedo application, it may be helpful to review the various concepts related to its design and the tools that are available to you. These concepts include identifying clients or the various ways input from the outside world is gathered and presented to your business for processing, and identifying servers or the programs containing the business logic that process the input data. Also important is reviewing the concept of typed buffers or how a client program allocates a memory area before sending data to another program. Another concept worth reviewing is that of the BEA Tuxedo messaging paradigms. Client programs access the BEA Tuxedo system by calling the ATMI library. Most calls in the ATMI library support these different communication styles available to programmers, such as request/response and conversational. These are the building blocks of every BEA Tuxedo application.

For more information on concepts, such as application queues, event-based communication, and using ATMI, and on the tools available to you, refer to BEA Tuxedo System Architecture in Introducing the BEA Tuxedo System. For information on programming an application, refer to Programming a BEA Tuxedo Application Using C and Programming a BEA Tuxedo Application Using COBOL.
