Creating a configuration file using WinConfig

6.7 Creating a configuration file using WinConfig

The configuration file described in the preceding sections contains all the necessary infor- mation on the desired system structure and can be created either with an editor or using

the

WinConfig graphical user interface.

 

The

WinConfig graphical user interface is only available on UNIX platforms and only for

openUTM.

❍ ❍ ●

WinConfig contains a direct connection to the GINA configuration generator config. This means that the configuration process can be executed almost entirely within the graphical user interface. The user controls the creation of a configuration file and the calling of the configuration generator by using WinConfig.

The individual configuration elements (HOST, TA-APPLICATION, APPLICATION,

FOREIGN_APPLICATION, SESSION, CONNECTION and FOREIGN_SESSION) of the configu- ration language from section 6.2 on page 46 are represented in WinConfig by icons and lines. Clicking on the icons or lines opens dialog windows in which you can enter or change the relevant parameters.

The next sections frequently use the terms “TA application”, “non-TA application”, “foreign application”, “session”, “connection” and “foreign session”. In the context described, they mean the following:

TA application

Transaction-monitored application that is connected via T-ORB. In

 

the configuration language, TA applications are represented by the

 

TA_APPLICATION statement.

Non-TA application

Transaction-free application (e. g. GUI clients) that is connected via

 

T-ORB/Client. In the configuration language, non-TA applications

 

are represented by the APPLICATION statement.

Foreign application

A foreign openUTM application. In the configuration language, for-

 

eign applications are represented by the FOREIGN_APPLICATION

 

statement.

Session

Connection between two transaction-monitored applications. In the

 

configuration language, sessions are represented by the SESSION

 

statement.

Connection

Connection between a transaction-monitored application and a

 

transaction-free application. In the configuration language, connec-

 

tions are represented by the CONNECTION statement.

Foreign session

Connection between a transaction-monitored application and a for-

 

eign openUTM application. In the configuration language, foreign

 

sessions are represented by the FOREIGN_SESSION statement.
