Rocket TE is fully 32-bit WHLLAPI and EHLLAPI 1.1 compatible allowing easy migration to
Rocket TE of many custom or third-party applications used with other emulators. Rocket TE HLLAPI is
compatible with third-party HLLAPI applications including (but not limited to) those from Shared
Medical (Siemens), Neasi-Webber, Real Vision, and Decision Technology.
- Advantages
- HLLAPI is a standard API supported by many software vendors.
- Disadvantages
-
- The specification can be interpreted differently from vendor to vendor causing some
incompatibilities.
- HLLAPI requires a programmer to write the application.
- The interface must be constantly polled by the HLLAPI application to get the status of
the host screen.
- For new development, the Rocket TE Host Automation Object is much easier to implement,
and supports a wider range of development tools.
Note: If you intend on writing a program to interface with Rocket TE via the HLLAPI interface,
the following documents are provided in the
Docs\WHLLAPI folder of the
Rocket TE CD image.
