This section explains the programs to be used when the user uses remote API facilities to manage establishment and release of connections. The COBOL-UAP creation programs provided by the remote API facilities are as follows:

• CBLDCRAP('CONNECT ') - Establish a connection with a RAP-processing listener
• CBLDCRAP('CONNECTX') - Establish a connection with a RAP-processing listener
• CBLDCRAP('DISCNCT ') - Release a connection with a RAP-processing listener

The COBOL-UAP creation programs (CBLDCRAP) provided by the remote API facilities can be used in UAPs of TP1/Server Base or TP1/LiNK.

When the user defines DATA DIVISION of COBOL-UAP creation programs, the COBOL language templates can be used as samples. The COBOL language template for the remote API facilities (CBLDCRAP) is stored in DCRAP.cbl under the /BeTRAN/examples/COBOL/ directory.
