Purpose
This document is designed to help you perform these tasks:
•
Learn about the TNS/E native execution and development environment and how it
differs from the TNS environment.
•
Determine which programs can be converted and the effort required to convert
them.
•
Plan a conversion strategy.
•
Convert programs written in C and C++ from TNS to native mode.
•
Convert programs written in COBOL from TNS to native mode.
•
Convert Transaction Application Language (TAL) programs to pTAL (portable TAL)
programs.
•
Convert user libraries.
•
Use the Data Definition Language (DDL) to support TNS and native programs.
•
Make changes in the Guardian application program interface (API), Open System
Services (OSS) API and utilities, and Common Run-Time Environment (CRE) API
required to convert programs to TNS/E native mode.
•
Enable TNS and native programs to share data.
The manual assumes that you are familiar with the programming languages, compilers,
and tools used to create the programs you plan to convert to TNS/E native mode.
This manual does not describe RVU installation, configuration, and conversion or
migration issues that are not related to converting an existing application to TNS/E
native mode. For information on these issues, see:
