Using CA IDMS DLI Transparency Within CA IDMS/DB Programs › About This Chapter

About This Chapter

CA IDMS DLI Transparency can be used in the CA IDMS/DB environment. A program written to use CA IDMS/DB must conform to CA IDMS/DB programming standards. All CA IDMS DLI Transparency functions available to batch programs are available to CA IDMS/DB programs. No restrictions are imposed, and no additional or special capabilities are added.

In addition to the conversion considerations for batch programs, using CA IDMS DLI Transparency in the CA IDMS/DB environment requires these considerations:

• Data communications
• Language interface
• Schedule (PCB) call processing
• The CA IDMS DLI Transparency program definition table
• Operational considerations

This chapter discusses each of these issues.
