P
package
A collection of related classes; for example, JDBC.
Pathsend API
The application program interface to a Pathway system that enables a Pathsend process to
communicate with a server process.
Pathsend process
A client (requester) process that uses the Pathsend interface to communicate with a server
process. A Pathsend process can be either a standard requester, which initiates application
requests, or a nested server, which is configured as a server class but acts as a requester
by making requests to other servers. Also called a Pathsend requester.
Pathway CGI
An extension to iTP Secure WebServer that provides CGI-like access to Pathway server
classes. Extended in the NonStop Server for Java so that Java servlets can be invoked
from a ServletServerClass, a special Pathway CGI server.
Pathway
A group of software tools for developing and monitoring OLTP programs that use the
client/server model. Servers are grouped into server classes to perform the requested
processing. On NonStop systems, this group of tools is packaged as two separate
products: TS/MP and Pathway/TS.
Pathway/TS
An HP product that provides tools for developing and interpreting screen programs to
support OLTP programs in the Guardian environment on NonSotp servers. Pathway/TS
screen programs communicate with terminals and intelligent devices. Pathway/TS
requires the services of the TS/MP product.
persistence
A property of a programming language where created objects and variables continue to
exist and retain their values between runs of the program.
portability
The ability to transfer programs from one platform to another without reprogramming. A
characteristic of open systems. Portability implies use of standard programming
languages such as C.
