MSF framework processes its messages. These exit programs perform E-mail-
related functions and are passed information about the MSF message. These exit
programs can use two other APIs to retrieve or change part of the MSF message.
The remaining APIs are used to configure information to the MSF framework that it
uses to tag and identify the parts of an MSF message. There are APIs to add,
remove, and list these MSF-data-type definitions as part of MSF's configuration.
SNADS File Server APIs
You would use these APIs if you were dealing with AnyMail/400 mail server frame-
work (MSF) messages that contained SNADS attachments. You would use the file
server object read API if the MSF message was originated by OfficeVision or object
distribution. You would use the create and write APIs if the MSF message was
destined for an OfficeVision user or an object distribution user, or if you want to
temporarily store attachments.
Office Exit Programs
Descriptions of the office exit programs follow:
Directory Search exit program
This exit program is provided for those who want the ability to search other files
that contain user information. For example, when in OfficeVision and a user is
on the Search System Directory display, if this exit program is provided, the
F10 key is provided to call this exit program and as a result return the user ID
and address.
Directory Supplier exit program
This exit program is provided for system distribution directory shadowing. It
provides the ability to prevent add, change, and delete operations of select data
from being supplied to a collector system. The advantages this provides is
additional security to allow other systems on the network to see only the data
you want them to see. It also gives you a way to provide partial replication
through shadowing.
Directory Verification exit program
This exit program is provided to verify data that is being added, changed, and
deleted in the system distribution directory. It is called for when data is directly
being changed on the system and also when data is being changed through
shadowing. This gives you the ability to verify that data is valid for specific
fields (like telephone number format). It also gives you the added security of
ensuring that the systems changing your data are authorized to do so. You
could also use this exit program to provide partial replication for data that has
already been sent from the other systems.
Document Conversion exit program
This exit program allows other document conversion programs to be called
when a request is made for the OfficeVision program to process a document
that is an unsupported type.
Document Handling exit program
This exit program allows other editors and applications to be called from the
OfficeVision word processing and print functions.
