Abstract
A system and method of accessing functions includes running n-bit based code in an n-bit supporting system environment. An m-bit based provider object is instantiated in an m-bit hardware and operating system environment server. The provider object provides an interface between the n-bit based code and m-bit based server functions. m-bit based server functions are accessed from the n-bit based code via the m-bit based provider object.
Claims21
A method of accessing functions, the method comprising:
- running n-bit based code in an n-bit supporting environment;
- instantiating an m-bit based provider object in an m-bit hardware and operating system environment server, wherein the provider object provides an interface between the n-bit based code and m-bit based server functions;
- and
- accessing m-bit based server functions from the n-bit based code via the m-bit based provider object.
A system comprising:
- a provider that runs in an m-bit environment and exposes m-bit functionality of an application through m-bit based APIs to m-bit functions;
- wherein the provider exposes such APIs to n-bit based agents via COM interfaces.
A computer readable medium having instructions for causing a computer to implement a method of accessing functions, the method comprising:
- instantiating an m-bit based provider object in an m-bit hardware and operating system environment server, wherein the provider object provides an interface between the n-bit based code and m-bit based server functions;
- receiving n-bit based method calls from an n-bit based agent;
- and
- accessing m-bit based server functions from the n-bit based agent via the m-bit based provider object.
A method of accessing functions, the method comprising:
- instantiating a proxy object in an application running n-bit based code;
- accessing, via the n-bit proxy object, an m-bit based provider object in an m-bit hardware and operating system environment server, wherein the provider object provides an interface between the n-bit based code and m-bit based server functions;
- and
- receiving results from m-bit based server functions via the m-bit based provider object.
