ABSTRACT:
The methods and systems of the invention enable connectionless-oriented server and client programs operating on processing systems to communicate with connection-oriented routines operating on different processing systems linked to connectionless or connection-oriented networks by establishing connections or communications virtual circuits between such programs. The connectionless-oriented server and client programs may be modified to communicate with a connection manager to establish a virtual circuit before initiating communications with the connection-oriented routines. The invention further utilizes encapsulators and decapsulators to enable communication programs to transfer data packets in a first format on an established virtual circuit over a network transmitting data in a second format.
