NAME

tisam_Initialize - initializes the T-ISAM interface

SYNOPSIS

void tisam_Initialize (IN tisam_interface_t interfaceMode)

PARAMETERS

interfaceMode Specifies the mode in which the T-ISAM interface is to be used. 

DESCRIPTION

The tisam_Initialize function initializes the T-ISAM interface. It is not necessary for the application to call tisam_Initialize before beginning operation. If this function is not called by an application, the first T-ISAM function called by the application will call it automatically. 

The interfaceMode parameter can take one of three values: TISAM_COMPATIBILITY_MODE, TISAM_STANDARD_MODE, or TISAM_GET_ENV_MODE. See the reference page for the tisam_interface_t data type for more information. 

The tisam_Initialize function does not return a status code. However, the process will be killed if the transactional RPC component has not been initialized correctly, as follows:

If Tran-C has been initialized, TRPC must be initialized as well. 

If Tran-C has not been initialized, TRPC must initialize successfully. 

NOTES

This function may also be called using the name isinit.
