This document describes the Natural User Access Method which is an interface for third party vendor products for Natural print and/or work file support.
The following topics are covered:
The NATAMUSR module provides an exit interface (entry point
NATAM9EX) for software vendors to handle Natural print and work
files, that is, it actually consists of two parts:
the Natural User Access Method stub NATAMUSR delivered
with Natural and
the Natural User Access Method exit NATAM9EX delivered by
a software vendor.
The NATAMUSR module (with the access method exit) may be installed in one of the following ways:
linked to the Natural nucleus,
linked to the Natural driver (when driver and front-end are split),
linked to an
alternative
Natural parameter module (as loaded via profile parameter
PARM),
linked as a separate module; in this case, the following Natural profile parameters are required:
RCA=(NATAM09),RCALIAS=(NATAM09,xxx),
where xxx is the name of the separate module in the load library.
To invoke the third party product for Natural print and/or work file
processing
For details about the Natural User Access Method exit installation and other information about the third party exit handler, refer to the documentation of the relevant software vendor.
