National Language Support APIs
These APIs provide the capability to retrieve cultural values, to convert sort
sequence to different CCSIDs, to convert and truncate character strings, and to
work with data that uses CCSIDs.
National Language Support APIs
This set of APIs gives you the capability to work with language IDs, sort sequence
tables, and single- or double-byte character string data. The sort API allows a sort
using a national language sorting sequence.
This set also includes an API that converts all characters to either uppercase or
lowercase.
National Language Data Conversion APIs
This set of APIs provides the capability to convert character data from one CCSID
to another.
Character Data Representation Architecture (CDRA) APIs
These APIs are part of the Character Data Representation Architecture that allows
access to the system CCSID support.
Network Management APIs
Network management APIs give you the capability to manage one or more nodes
from another node. The network management section consists of the following
groups of APIs:
Advanced Peer-to-Peer Networking (APPN) topology
SNA/Management Services Transport
Alert
Node list
Registered filter
Change request management
Advanced Peer-to-Peer Networking (APPN) Topology Information
APIs
APPN topology information APIs allow an application to obtain information about
the current APPN topology, and to register and deregister for information about
ongoing updates to the topology. The specific types of topology updates that an
application may register to receiver follow:
Network network node (*NN) updates
Network virtual node (*VN) updates
Local end node (*EN) updates
Local virtual node (*VN) updates
APPN
network
topology identifies the following in an APPN subnetwork. (An APPN
subnetwork consists of nodes having a common network ID and the links con-
necting those nodes.)
All network nodes and virtual nodes in the subnetwork
Transmission groups interconnecting network nodes and virtual nodes in the
subnetwork
Transmission groups from network nodes in the subnetwork to network nodes
in adjacent subnetworks
