Long description of Figure 1: Vaccess classes (rzahh508.gif)
found in IBM Toolbox for Java: Vaccess package diagram
This figure shows the relationship between the classes in the vaccess package,
the access package, and the Java Swing classes.
Description
The figure is composed of the following:
- The topmost image is actually a thick brown border, as of the left and top
sides of a rectangle, labeled 'Application,' that represents a Java application.
The rectangle delineated by the Java application contains the following irregularly
shaped images that fit together like pieces of a puzzle:
- A tan polygon that represents the Toolbox for Java vaccess (GUI) classes.
This shape contains smaller images that represent the functions contained
in the vaccess classes.
- A green polygon that represents the Java Swing classes
- Below these images is a light blue bar labeled Access Classes, that represents
classes in the Toolbox for Java access package.
- Below the light blue bar is an identically shaped dark blue bar, labeled
'Sockets/TCP.'
- The bottom image is a picture of an iSeries server.
- A lightning bolt, which represents a socket connection from the Java application
to the server, extends downward from Sockets/TCP (the dark blue bar) and connects
to the server (the image of an iSeries server).
A Java application (the area delineated by the thick brown border) contains
vaccess classes (the tan polygon) and Java Swing classes (the green polygon).
The vaccess classes enable the Java application to access the following data
and functions on the server (small images in the tan polygon):
AS400Panes, CommandCall, DataQueues, integrated file system, JDBC, jobs, messages,
print, ProgramCall, record-level input and output, and users and groups
The Java application uses Toolbox for Java access classes (the light blue bar)
to create one or more socket connections (the dark blue bar). The socket connections
enable the Java application to communicate (the lightning bolt) with the server
(bottom image of the iSeries server).
