Open Gate - Developing With OpenGate

Developing With OpenGate

OpenGate is an open platform that helps to integrate wireless applications using a proprietary SDK. These development tools have been designed for:

• The mobilization of already existing applications currently being used by the customer and that would like to add to the system functionalities in mobile devices (PDAs, TabletPC, etc.) and M2M.
• The creation and development of complete solutions from scratch, focused on the communication of remote elements distributed geographically, and needed of wireless communications.

In order to do this, OpenGate offers a set of APIs, Integrators and tools that are designed to facilitate the deployment tasks with the goal of reducing the development costs of the solution.

OpenGate's SDK provides several integration mechanisms:

• Communication APIs in several languages and platforms:
  • Java: Java SE, Java EE, for the server side and Java SE/Java ME in the client.
  • Visual Basic 60 (Only available for OpenGate versions prior to 2.X)
  • .NET: For use withVisual Studio 2003, Framework v.1.1 and Compact Framework v1.0
  • C++, For use with Win32, Windows CE, PocketPC and Linux.
• Java administration APIs for J2SE platform:
• Integration modules based on standard tools that allows to adapt to any scenario:
  • JMS integration module
  • WebServices based APIs
  • Mobile APIs (GPRS connection manager, Sending/receiving SMS, NMEA managing...)
• M2M APIs for being used with on the market M2M devices (check availability list)

OpenGate has, as well, a set of tools oriented to developers:

• OpenGate communications emulator: Simulates client and server sides.
• M2M emulator: GPS/SMS/Digital IO/Analogic IO.
• Code Generators: Via XML files the messages to be exchanged can be defined.
• Database Synchronization: To use with backoffice to mobile applications.
