SALT programming
SALT programming involves mainly two areas, namely web services programming and SCA programming, which are very much standard programing practices today. In this section, I will briefly introduce the programming paradigms for SALT, but I do not intend to go into the details, as we do want to cover how to do web service / SCA programing in this small book. Most of the SALT-related APIs are listed in the table in one of the previous sections of this chapter; we will be using them along with our web service / SCA programming knowledge.
Web services programming
As we have previously discussed, SALT provides bi-directional communication between the Tuxedo applications and web-service-based applications, and any existing Tuxedo services can be easily exposed as a web services without much coding. SALT helps you create a WSDL file that describes the Tuxedo web service contract so that any standard web service client can call or access Tuxedo services.
