Types of sample programs

OpenTP1 samples are as follows:

Base sample
Comes with TP1/Server Base.
DAM sample
Comes with TP1/FS/Direct Access.
TAM sample
Comes with TP1/FS/Table Access.
MCF sample
Comes with the message control facility (TP1/Message Control, TP1/NET/Library, and communication protocol supporting product).
delvcmd command
Dispatches commands for MultiOpenTP1.
COBOL language templates
Are DATA DIVISION templates used when a UAP is written in COBOL.
Sample scenario templates
Is the sample scenario template used when the system is operated using a scenario template. To use this template, you must have a JP1 product (JP1/AJS2, JP1/AJS2 - Scenario Operation, or JP1/Base) that is a prerequisite for systems that use a scenario template.
Real-time acquisition item definition templates
Templates used for the real-time statistical information service.

These samples are independent of each other and stored in separate directories. They can be used by themselves.

Organization of this subsection: (1) Files accessed from application programs

Base sample, DAM sample, and TAM sample can use sample programs (UAPs) and the OpenTP1 file system. UAPs in each sample use programs of the same format. However, the location for storing databases used by the UAPs varies depending on the sample as follows:

Database for Base sample: On memory table
Database for DAM sample: DAM file
Database for TAM sample: TAM table

UAPs in each sample reference or update data in the database. The access procedure helps the user understand how to use the OpenTP1 API.
