ACSE/Presentation: Transaction Processing API (XAP-TP)

This specification defines the X/Open ACSE/Presentation (XAP) programming interface Transaction Processing extension (XAP-TP). X/Open has already defined an ACSE/Presentation (XAP) programming interface (C303) which provides for access to the ISO OSI protocol stack at the upper two layers (Association Control Service Element and Presentation) of the OSI 7-layer model. The XAP-TP extension to XAP provides a programming interface to the OSI Transaction Processing facilities, which support X/Open's interface specifications for TP applications (Peer-to-Peer, XATMI, TxRPC). In addition, the programming interface is at a level which enables existing Transaction Monitors and applications to have access to OSI TP for interworking with new applications, thereby enabling users to retain their considerable investment in existing TP applications while they develop new conformant ones.
