In order to enable CCI support for TCP/IP, three executable modules are provided:
- CCITC32.DLL(cobtcp.so on UNIX systems)
- which enables the CCI interface routines necessary for CCI equipped machines to communicate with each other. The module,
its interface, and its associated functionality and other support modules, is generically referred to as
CCITCP. Micro Focus products use this (and other protocol-specific CCI modules) so that they do not need to worry about the complexities
of the underlying network protocol.
- CCITCP2.EXE(ccitcp2 on UNIX systems)
- a server registration module, which is used to register and advertise CCI server processes that are available for CCI clients
to call. It is designed to be run as a background application, and so is sometimes referred to as a "daemon" process.
- CCIINST.EXE(not supplied on UNIX systems)
- adds necessary entries to the TCP/IP services file automatically and registers the name of the machine which CCI clients
will use to connect to a CCITCP2 process. It generally needs to be run only once on a machine.
