Communication via the programming interface
General
The communication of the programming interface is done via a WAMP-Router that is a
component of the Locating Manager Server. Establishing a connection from an application to
the Locating Manager Server requires the implementation of a WAMP client on the part of
this application. There is no provision for client-specific parameterization. A connection can
be terminated at any time using the WAMP client application.
Properties of the coding
The coding via the programming interface has the following properties:
●
The data to be transferred for the data transport is transferred in the "JSON" format
(JavaScript Object Notation).
●
The text to be displayed is transmitted in "UTF-8" format (8-Bit UCS Transformation
Format).
●
Line breaks in text fields are managed using the "\r" element
