Foil 67 Shared Places Interfaces

From Tango Futures: XML for Web-based Collaboration and Distance Education SURA Meeting Birmingham Alabama -- September 8 1999. by Geoffrey C. Fox
Now we turn to implementation and architecture
We remarked that SP Framework exposed a set of interfaces to Shared Objects and tools that manipulate them
SP Interfaces are the entry points for accessing collaboration functionality provided by SP Framework (major extension of functionality provided by Tango API in Java applet, application, C++ and JavaScript):
  • Configuration interface enables initialization of Shared Objects based on the content of SPDL document
  • Data sharing interface offers data passing and synchronization services to the Shared Objects
  • Control interface provides means for accessing and manipulation of collaboration state
