<H3> 1.3.4 The OpenDoc Technology</H3>
</banner>
<pre width="80">
<p>
OpenDoc technology is a vendor-neutral architecture for software
integration that enables the development of distributed, cross-platform
component software. It will initially be available on OS/2 Warp Version
3 with UNIX implementations to follow. No matter which platform you use,
it is important to note that OpenDoc technology is designed for easy
installation and implementation. OpenDoc technology protects customers'
and developers' investments in software and training.
<p>
<p>
the entire organization through the use of software components on notebook
systems, desktop computers, servers, and mainframes. It enables the
construction of compound, collaborative and customizable documents, which
are interoperable across platforms, as well as with proprietary APIs for
desktop application integration such as Microsoft OLE 2.0.
<p>
The following are brief descriptions of the key OpenDoc supporting
technologies:
<p>
<p>
<p>
<B>OpenDoc</B> <B>Compound</B> <B>Document</B> <B>Services</B> manage display and user-interface
aspects to ensure a unified document model that supports
multiple data types.
<p>
<B>OpenDoc</B> <B>Component</B> <B>Services</B> support the integration of multiple software
component parts into seamless documents and custom applications.
<p>
<p>
<B>OpenDoc</B> <B>Storage</B> <B>Services</B> allow OpenDoc technology to store and exchange
compound documents and multimedia.
<p>
<B>OpenDoc</B> <B>Object</B> <B>Management</B> <B>Services</B> are based on System Object Model (SOM),
a highly efficient, CORBA-compliant, dynamic linking mechanism
for objects, which supports multiple languages and provides a
gateway to distributed object services.
<p>
<B>OpenDoc</B> <B>Automation</B> <B>Services</B> include the Open Scripting Architecture (OSA)
standard. OSA consists of an automation and scripting API that
supports application-independent scripting, providing full
functionality with compliant scripting languages.
<p>
<B>OpenDoc</B> <B>Interoperability</B> <B>Services</B> provide interoperability with other
component software architectures. It includes ComponentGlue
Technology that enables bidirectional interoperability with
Microsoft OLE 2.0, Microsoft's proprietary API for desktop
application integration.
<p>
<p>
These six services layers combine to create a wealth of new opportunities
for software development and deployment. The OpenDoc component software
architecture is a comprehensive and cohesive set of services that utilizes
technologies such as SOM, OSA, and Bento.
