I would start with loading the host subroutines onto my MV platform. 

Check the \Program Files\Wintegrate\Host directory.  There's a script called 
Inst_Pgm.wis you can call it from the wintegrate Run-Script menu.  It will install 
the MV API on your host, make sure you're in an account you want to do this to.

There are a number of host demo programs on the host that you can run and take apart 
to see how it all fits together, and shows different techniques.  There's also 
numerious examples loaded on witegrate dealing with dialogs that are run externally 
from the host.

I've used both the dialog designer using external wis files, and creating the dialogs 
within universe code.  There's advantages to both.  I'm currently designing a program 
basic program that will take a file created using the dialog designer and create a 
basic program equivalent.

Hi,
We are currently running an old green line GUI. I was told by IBM to look at 
Wintegrate to make my applications look more modern. I've downloaded the Wintegrate 
trial version but I don't know where to start. I've modified the coloring setting to 
get certain fields look like windows textboxes etc. But I'm sure that there must be 
another way of using Wintegrate to fullfill my needs. Anyone who knows where I should 
start? Should I redraw my screens in the Wintegrate dialog designer or what? I have 
downloaded all the manuals but can't find anything at a glance that shows me where to 
start my GUItilazation.

TIA
Björn Eklund

RE: wIntegrate Trial Version

[Gerral Hubbard]

The current version of wintegrate ships with a client server version as
well as the standard telnet.  The thin client requires the wintegrate
server to be installed on a network server.  The thin client installs
only 30k on the desktop PC.

Advantages to the wintegrate server is that there is a single point of
maintainence, and tight control over sessions and configurations.  It
acts as a true client server environment with all of the COM/DCOM and
other client server perks.  It also enables you to visibly monitor and
control other user's sessions, sort of like Tandem in the Unix version
of Universe, but in a GUI setting.  It's really nice when you're using
the wintegrate GUI language independent of the MV host.

Disadvatages are that the telnet traffic hits the wintegrate server
first before going to the thin client on the desktop, plus if the
wintegrate server goes down, everyone loses wintegrate.  

IMHO, the wintegrate server is great in a very large scale and
geographically dispersed environment and using SMS, but if you're in a
user setting of under 50 the additional overhead is overkill.

The Host routines that load onto Universe are a separate function and
are independent of the client server environment.  I think they come
loaded with the trial version, but I don't recall.

As far as i know, there isn't a server portion of wintegrate, rather it
is a client session to telnet to a MV system. The magic comes with
matching term settings, ie vt100, addsvp etc.

Subject: wIntegrate Trial Version


Ok, first, I am new to wIntegrate.  I downloaded the trial version, and
installed it on an XP pro machine which also runs the UniVerse personal
edition.

Note:trial version can be obtained at:

https://www-927.ibm.com/software/data/u2/support/u2techconnect/wintlist.
asp?
newreg=1

How do I get the server portion of wIntegrate installed?  If it is due
to the personal edition of UV, is there a way to install the server
portion of wIntegrate trial on a real UV license?  (this would be UV
10).

I've looked through the manuals, and I am obviously missing something.
Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks for your help.
