Initialization

The 3270 emulator should initialize the DL-BASE and then call the Dynamic Access Module (DMOD) to obtain the necessary configuration information. This also registers the user name with the DMOD. It can then obtain further system information such as the Host Integration Server version number, if required.

The following table lists the functions involved with this process.

Function	Description
sbpuinit	Initializes the DL-BASE.
sepdcrec	Gets configuration information.
sepdgetinfo	Gets system information.

The sbpuinit entry point should always be called before any other DL-BASE/DMOD entry points except SNAGetVersion. For new emulators, sepdcrec should be called after sbpuinit. (Because of the order of calls used in older emulators, a call to sepdcrec before sbpuinit is still supported, but this order is not recommended.)
