This document explains how clients use the RPC communication area. The RPC communication area defines a context for RPC clients
The purpose of the RPC communication area includes the following:
to assign the COM_BROKER_ID
and server name, see
COM_SERVER_CLASS
,
COM_SERVER_NAME
and
COM_SERVER_SERVICE
to assign the COM_CLIENT_USERID
and
COM_CLIENT_TOKEN
for use with Conversational RPC to hold, for example, the conversation ID, see
COM_SERVER_CONVID
for use with EntireX Security to hold the
COM_CLIENT_PASSWORD
, COM_CLIENT_SECTOKEN
and
others
to keep the results of the last RPC request, for example the error code
The layout of the RPC Communication Area is described in the reference section.
The PL/I Wrapper allows the RPC Communication Area to be provided as an additional parameter for the generated RPC stubs.
