- Create a configuration(.cfg) file to control the behaviour of the mfclient and mfes-csbsrvr modules and the communications connection.
- In the configuration file, set the "commsapi" parameter to "es". This enables the use of the Enterprise Server transport.
- In the configuration file, set the "servername" parameter to the name of the service that you are using to run your server program. The service name is case-sensitive, so you must make sure that it is the same in your configuration file as it is on the enterprise server. The default service supplied with Client/Server Binding for Enterprise Server is MFCLISRV.
- Add code to your client program to call the mfclient module.
- Add code to your server program to enable it to be called by the mfserver module.
- Make sure that the Micro Focus Directory Server that manages your enterprise server is started.
- Deploy the default service to your enterprise server.
- Install your client program on the client machine.
- Install your server program on the server machine.
To run your application, you also need to ensure that:
- Your enterprise server is started
- The Client/Server Binding service or services are configured as AVAILABLE
- The listener for the service(s) is started
