Establish a connection with the commit service.
DBPROCESS *open_commit(login, servername) LOGINREC *login; char *servername;
This is a LOGINREC containing information about the user initiating the session, such as login name, password, and options desired. The LOGINREC must have been obtained from a prior call to the DB-Library routine dblogin. The caller may wish to initialize fields in the LOGINREC. See the reference page for dblogin for more details.
The name of the commit service; for example, DSCOMMIT_SALESNET. If servername is NULL, the name DSCOMMIT is used. The name cannot contain a period (.) or a colon (:).
A pointer to a DBPROCESS structure to be used in subsequent commit service calls, or NULL if the open failed.
This routine calls dbopen to establish a connection with the commit service. A call to open_commit must precede any calls to other commit service routines, such as start_xact, commit_xact, abort_xact, remove_xact, and scan_xact. A session with the commit service is closed by calling close_commit.
This routine returns a DBPROCESS structure, which is used to communicate with the commit service. The DBPROCESS must be dedicated to its role with the commit service and should not be used otherwise in the distributed transaction.
