The TIBCO Object Service Broker SDK (C/C++) is an application programming interface (API) used by an application to
The SDK (C/C++) is installed with TIBCO Object Service Broker.
The SDK (C/C++) supplies a dataIn/dataOut commarea mechanism for unformatted binary data exchange between an application and a TIBCO Object Service Broker rule. A rule called via SDK (C/C++) can use all the TIBCO Object Service Broker facilities except the text-presentation DISPLAY statement. To facilitate commarea binary data exchange between an application and a rule, developers can use TIBCO Object Service Broker MAP tables to process data in the dataIn commarea and to return data back to the application through the dataOut commarea.
The SDK (C/C++) is a remote interface that communicates with TIBCO Object Service Broker. TIBCO Object Service Broker on all platforms supports this interface in the same way. User applications can communicate with different TIBCO Object Service Broker installations on different platforms with no change to their code. They use the SDK (C/C++) whenever they want to control a session in another computer or, in z/OS, in another work space on the same computer.
With the SDK (C/C++), you can write an application to manage a TIBCO Object Service Broker session using a set of subroutines to an external program. Using the SDK (C/C++) functions, you can code in the programming language of your choice. To make the services of TIBCO Object Service Broker available to your program, you write specific routines that make use of the SDK (C/C++) and that exert complete control over TIBCO Object Service Broker sessions.

Sample Application Using the SDK (C/C++).
The SDK (C/C++) client is not thread safe at a session level. In other words, when two threads try to issue an SDK (C/C++) cliProc call on the same session area, the behavior of the second client is unpredictable.
