4.6 Event Subscription and Notifications

Programmers developing client applications with Jolt can receive event notifications from either Oracle Tuxedo Services or other Oracle Tuxedo clients. The Jolt Class Library contains classes that support the following types of Oracle Tuxedo notifications for handling event-based communication:

  • Unsolicited Event Notifications these are notifications that a Jolt client receives as a result of an Oracle Tuxedo client or service issuing a broadcast using either a tpbroadcast() or a directly targeted message via a tpnotify() ATMI call.
  • Brokered Event Notifications these notifications are received by a Jolt client through the Oracle Tuxedo Event Broker. The notifications are only received when the Jolt client subscribes to an event and any Oracle Tuxedo client or server issues a system-posted event or tppost() call.
