3、 ACCESS MECHANISM TO COMMUNICATION SERVICES Summary This Recommendation specifies a homogenous access mechanism to communication services (called XAPI). The XAPI, which is an abbreviation for extensive Application Programming Interface, is an operating system and language-independent programming int
4、erface to general communication services. This Recommendation specifies a set of functions which allow XAPI users to have access to the services of an underlying provider. These functions apply to all providers which are specified in this Recommendation. A model of communication is introduced which
5、defines the semantics of those XAPI functions which are communication related. Making available appropriate providers, the communication system can be tailored to specific requirements, and all communication services are accessible via one homogenous access mechanism.

6、80 was prepared by ITU-T Study Group 8 (1997-2000) and was approved under the WTSC Resolution No. 1 procedure on the 1 8* of June 1998. STD-ITU-T RECMN T-LBO-ENGL 1998 = 4b2573 Ob58344 387 111 FOREWORD ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is the United Nations Specialized Agency in the field
7、of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of the ITU. The ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. T
8、he World Telecommunication Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of Recommendations by the Members of the ITU-T is covered by the procedur
9、e laid down in WTSC Resolution No. 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-T?s purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS0 and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation the term recognized operating agency (ROA) includes any individual, company, co
10、rporation or governmental organization that operates a public correspondence service. The terms Administration, ROA and public correspondence are defined in the Constitution of the ITU (Geneva, 1992). INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS The ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implem
11、entation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. The ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development proc
12、ess. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, the ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore str
13、ongly urged to consult the TSB patent database. O ITU 1999 All rights reserved.

28、ive Application Programming Interface, is an operating system and language-independent homogenous access mechanism to general communication services. It is not dedicated to a certain layer, but allows access to all layers of the OS1 reference model and other layered communication models (e.g. confer
29、encing). The XAPI provides a framework of functions for the use in communication applications. All communication services are accessible through this set of functions. The XAPI does not impose any restrictions on the service interface of the underlying communication platform. Which services are made
30、 available via the XAPI depends on the installed service providers, and not on the XAPI, which only provides the access mechanism. New service providers can be added in the XAPI configuration. Thus, the communication system can be tailored to specific requirements and all communication services are
31、accessible via one homogeneous access mechanism. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provision which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.
