Introduction to UL/SPF
——————————————————————————————————————————
SirScan A high performance utility that allows users in a Model 204 online to
browse the contents of its journal in real time. SirScan permits ordinary
users to view journal entries generated by their own online session, and it
allows users in ADMIN SCLASSes to browse journal entries for any set of
users. The data is displayed in a full-screen browser with powerful
searching commands and filtering options.
In addition, a number of subsystems that are not linked into the UL/SPF menuing
structure may be accessed via APSY-transfer from the UL/SPF applications. One such
subsystem is FACT , a utility for browsing SirFact dumps.
There are also many sample web and client-server applications developed for the Janus
product family that are distributed and installed along with the UL/SPF products. These
include JANCAT , an application that builds normalized views of Model 204 data for use
by Janus Specialty Data Store applications, and JANSSL , a system for creating and
managing SSL certificate requests.
1.1 UL/SPF Packaging and Installation Requirements
All of the UL/SPF products are Model 204 application subsystems written in User
Language. UL/SPF is distributed as a set of Model 204 files in a backup format
produced by the Model 204 DUMP command. As of UL/SPF Version 6.8, all User
Language based products are distributed in a single Model 204 procedure file called
SIRIUS .
UL/SPF makes extensive use of specialized User Language $functions provided by
Sirius Software. These $functions enable the creation of powerful User Language
application systems that can support complex environments with minimal server size
requirements. The $functions are part of the Sirius Mods , which must be installed
according to the instructions contained in Sirius Mods Installation Guide before any
UL/SPF product will work.
Although all of the Sirius Functions are documented in the Sirius Functions Reference
Manual , their use is controlled by a product authorization mechanism. Many functions
require that a specific UL/SPF product be authorized. Some functions may only be
invoked from an authorized procedure that has been “signed” by Sirius. The
SIRIUS
command may be used to examine the status of all Sirius products installed in a
Model 204 online.
