Default autoack.vmd and autonack.vmd Files

iNTERFACEWARE's products, Chameleon and Iguana, are shipped with default autoack.vmd and autonack.vmd files that you can use in your application (in the case of Chameleon), or Iguana. The VMD files can be accessed as follows:

• Chameleon - Generate a Stubcode and Server example using the Stubcode Generation Wizard. The autoack.vmd and autonack.vmd files are saved in the same directory as the project you generated.

• Iguana - Access the VMD files from the Iguana install directory (default install directory is C:\Program Files\iNTERFACEWARE\Iguana).

In this section you will learn how auto acknowledgments are possible using two message definitions and some simple Python scripts. The concepts behind each VMD file are nearly identical for ACK or NACK messages, with the only difference being the actual code (AA for positive; AE for negative) that's inserted in the first field of the MSA segment.
