This appendix lists the most common ATMI function calls and shows how their parameters map to CPIC verbs. The mappings are shown in the following order:

• tpcall()

• tpacall() with or without reply

• tpgetrply()

• tpservice()

• tpreturn()

• tpcancel()

• tpconnect()

• tpsend()

• tprecv()

• tpdiscon()

• tpforward ()

The tables on the following pages show the parameters of the ATMI call, what the content or meaning of the parameters is, and notes that indicate the usage with the CPIC verbs.

Table 1-1 tpcall

tpcall()	Parameters	Contents	CPIC Notes
svc		Service Name	Used in CMALLC to identify the CICS transaction to be invoked.

len		Length of User data	0 < data <= 32K
odata		Reply data	CMRCV receives the data until it has been completely transmitted (data_received is set to CM_COMPLETE_DATA_RECEIVED) and return code is set to CM_OK or CM_DEALLOCATE_NORMAL
olen		Reply data length	0 < data < 32K

len		Length of user data	0 < data <= 32K
flags	TPNOREPLY	false	The last data is sent with a CMSEND with send_type set to CMSEND_AND_PREP_TO_RECEIVE. This changes the state of the conversation to receive and a CMRCV is issued to await the reply
		true	Since no reply is expected, a CMDEAL deallocates the conversation after all data has been received

Table 1-4 tpservice

tpservice()	Parameters	Contents	CPIC Notes

cltid		set by BEA Tuxedo	For security
flags	TPCONV	If true, service is conversational
	TPTRAN	N/A	Sync level 2 not supported in this release, therefore the service cannot be called in transaction mode
	TPNOREPLY	If true, requestor not expecting a reply	The conversation is terminated with a CMDEAL normal
	TPSENDONLY	N/A	If set, the CPIC conversation in CICS should be in receive state. If not set, the CICS CPIC conversation state will be in send state.
	TPRECVONLY	N/A	If set, the CPIC conversation in CICS remains in send state.

Table 1-5 tpreturn

tpreturn()	Parameters	Contents	CPIC Notes
rval		TPSUCCESS	Set to TPSUCCESS when conversation terminates with a normal deallocation.

rcode		Set by the application	N/A
data		User data	Data is returned to the CICS transaction from a successful CMRCV with data received set to CM_DATA_COMPLETE and return code of CM_DEALLOCATE_NORMAL. If the service fails, no data is returned to the caller and the conversation is deallocated abnormally.
len		Length of data returned	0 < data <= 32K
flags		N/A	N/A

Table 1-6 tpcancel

tpcancel()	Parameters	Contents	CPIC Notes
cd		The connection descriptor on which a tpgetreply() is waiting.	CMDEAL abnormal is issued on the conversation with CONVID mapped from call descriptor

Table 1-7 tpconnect

tpconnect()	Parameters	Contents	CPIC Notes
svc		The local service name representing the service to be invoked. in CICS	The name is used to find the RNAME. The RNAME should match the TPName in CICS and will be used by CMINIT and CMALLC to initiate and allocate the conversation
data		User data	This data is sent in CMSENDs until completely transmitted
len		Length of User data	0 < data <= 32K
flags	TPNOTRAN	True	Sync level 2 not supported in this release, therefore the service call should not be in transaction mode
	TPSENDONLY	If true, the conversation stays in or changes to send state	The conversation remains in send state. This is the default.
	TPRECVONLY	If true, the conversation stays in or changes to receive state	Immediately after the allocate BEA Tuxedo sends a CMSEND with no data and send_type set to CM_SEND_AND_PREP_TO_RECEIVE
	TPNOBLOCK	N/A	Local
	TPNOTIME	N/A	Local
	TPSIGRSTRT	N/A	Local
