1.�tuxedo Module

The "tuxedo" module provides a Qore-language client API to BEA Tuxedo services.

Note that the code in this module is not available with the PO_NO_NETWORK parse option.

To use this module, include the following line in the qore program to load the module:

%requires tuxedo

1.1.�TuxedoAdapter Class

The TuxedoAdapter class is used to communicate with Tuxedo servers. Detailed description of Tuxedo interface can be found on Tuxedo 9.1 reference and related pages. TuxedoAdapter class provides multithread safe wrapper over messaging part of Tuxedo API. Constants from Tuxedo API (like TPAPPAUTH) are all exposed in Tuxedo namespace.
