Java Import Package

Pathway/iTS provides a Java import package used by the converted web clients. This

package consists of classes that enable Java-based clients to interact with Pathway

applications. The Java import package includes public classes in the following

categories:

•

Host connectivity (gateway) classes, which define the connectivity protocol with

the hos Compaq NonStop™ Himalaya system and also delegate certain host

processing on behalf of the clients.

•

HTML screen interaction classes, which define the attributes and structures

associated with SCREEN COBOL screen fields and the SCREEN COBOL

statements associated with displaying and accepting screens.

•

Data-type classes, which define the storage and casting rules associated with

SCREEN COBOL alphanumeric (PIC X), numeric integer (PIC 9), and numeric

non-integer (PIC 9P and PIC 9V) data types.
