DCOM object control creator

A method for communicating between a DCOM client and an enterprise server, comprising:

• a. building a transfer buffer containing a service call and an appropriate set of input parameters by said DCOM client;
• b. transferring said transfer buffer from said DCOM client to a DCOM server;
• c. building an input buffer by said DCOM server using said appropriate set of input parameters from said transfer buffer;
• d. passing said input buffer from said DCOM server to a DCOM gateway;
• e. forwarding said input buffer from said DCOM gateway to a communications program;
• and
• f. sending said input buffer from said communications program to said enterprise server.

A system comprising:

• a. a plurality of client terminals in a DCOM environment which generate service requests in a first language and build a parameter buffer of appropriate parameters;
• b. an enterprise server having a pre-DCOM architecture operating outside of the DCOM environment communicatively coupled to said plurality of client terminals via a network;
• c. an enterprise service resident in and operable on said enterprise server and accessible in accordance with a second language;
• and
• d. a software program stored in a non-transitory computer-readable medium resident in one of said plurality of client terminals, which automatically scripts a software interface using an industry standard scripting language to convert said first language of said plurality of client terminals to said second language of said enterprise service and build an input buffer from said parameter buffer,
• wherein said enterprise server is a pre-DCOM On-Line Transaction Processing system and said second language is consistent with the pre-DCOM On-Line Transaction Processing system.

A system comprising:

• a. interacting means for a client to interact with a DCOM system in a DCOM environment;
• b. an industry standard script generating means located within said interacting means;
• c. providing means communicatively coupled to said interacting means that provides an enterprise service via an On-Line Transaction Processing system having a Pre-DCOM architecture operating outside of the DCOM environment;
• d. creating means located within said interacting means for creating an interface software code using said industry standard script generation means for converting service requests from said interacting means to a language useable by said enterprise service;
• and
• e. building means associated with said creating means for building an input buffer containing a plurality of input parameters.
