services. These Repository definitions are used by Jolt at runtime to access TUXEDO
services. Using the Repository Editor, you can test new and existing NonStop TUXEDO
services independently of the client applications. You can export services to a Jolt client
application or unexport services by hiding the definitions from the Jolt client.
. The Jolt Internet Relay is a component that routes messages from a
Jolt client to a Jolt Server Listener (JSL) or Jolt Server Handler (JSH). This eliminates the
need for the JSH and TUXEDO to run on the same machine as the Web server. The Jolt
Internet Relay consists of the Jolt Relay (JRLY) and the Jolt Relay Adapter (JRAD).
The separation of Jolt into these components permits the transactional and Internet components
of client/server applications to be implemented separately with the security and scalability
required for large-scale Internet and intranet services.
Key Features
With Jolt, you can leverage existing TUXEDO services and extend your transaction
environment to the corporate intranet or world-wide Internet. The key feature of the Jolt
architecture is its simplicity. Using Jolt, you can build, deploy and maintain robust, modular,
and scalable electronic commerce systems that operate over the Internet.
Jolt includes the following features.
Java-based API for Simplified Development. With its Java-based API, Jolt simplifies
application design by providing well-designed object interfaces. Jolt supports the Java JDK 1.02
and is fully compatible with Java threads. Jolt enables Java programmers to build graphical
front-ends that use the TUXEDO application and transaction services without the need to
understand detailed transactional semantics or without having to rewrite existing TUXEDO
applications.
Pure Java Client Development. Using Jolt you can build a pure Java client that runs in any
Java-enabled browser. Jolt automatically converts from Java to native NonStop TUXEDO data
types and buffers and from TUXEDO back to Java. As a pure Java client, your applet or
application does not need resident client-side libraries or installation, allowing client
applications to be downloaded via the network thereby simplifying software distribution.
Easy Access to TUXEDO Services via Jolt Repository. The Jolt Repository facilitates Java
application development by managing and presenting NonStop TUXEDO service definitions
that you can use in your Java client. A Jolt repository bulk loading utility lets you quickly
integrate your existing TUXEDO services into the Jolt development environment. Jolt and
TUXEDO simplify network and application scalability, while encouraging the reuse of
application components.
GUI-based Maintenance and Distribution of TUXEDO Services. The Jolt Repository Editor
lets you manage NonStop TUXEDO service definitions such as service names, inputs and
outputs. The Jolt Repository Editor provides support for different input and output names for
services defined in the Jolt Repository.
