A system for processing a transaction on an end user application and an application server. The system initiates the transaction on the end user application in a first language (such as a markup language) with a first application program (such as a Web browser). The system transmits the transaction to the server and converts the transaction from the first language of the first end user application to a language running on the application server. The system processes the transaction on the application server, transmits the transaction from the application server back to the end user application, and converts the transaction from the language running on the application server to the language of the end user application.

CICS BMS (basic message service) metamodel

A system and method for representing MFS control blocks in XML for MFS-based IMS applications utilizes an MFS XML adapter and an MFS XML repository to translate between XML and MFS. The repository contains XML files for DOF/MOD and XML files for DIF/MID. When an XML request is received, the XML request is transformed to a byte stream by retrieving the relevant information from the MFS XML repository. The byte stream can then be placed in an IMS message queue to await processing by an MFS-based IMS application program. A byte stream response is generated by the MFS-based IMS application and is transformed into an XML response, again, by retrieving the relevant information from the MFS XML repository.

System and method for representing MFS control blocks in XML for MFS-based IMS applications

A method of processing a transaction on an end user application and an application server. This is accomplished by initiating the transaction on the end user application in a first language (such as a markup language) with a first application program (such as a Web browser), and transmitting the transaction to the server and converting the transaction from the first language of the first end user application to a language running on the application server, processing the transaction on the application server, and transmitting the transaction from the application server back to the end user application, and converting the transaction from the language running on the application server to the language of the end user application. The end user application and the application server have at least one connector between them, and the steps of (i) converting the transaction from the language of the end user application (as a source language) to the language running on the application server (as a target language), and (ii) converting the transaction from the language running on the application server (as a source language) to the language of the end user application (as a target language), each include the steps of invoking connector metamodels of the respective source and target languages, populating the connector metamodels with metamodel data of each of the respective source and target languages, and converting the source language to the target language.
