LinkPoint Wrappers
LinkPoint International has developed several integration tools or wrappers
that allow developers with expertise in other programming languages, software
platforms and application environments to quickly integrate with the LinkPoint
Secure Payment Gateway.LinkPoint COM Component object model (COM), a technology developed and used by Microsoft and its partners, is particularly compatible with the Windows NT system, succeeding as a virtual drop-in solution. The LinkPoint COM is an in-process server supporting a single-threaded apartment (STA) model, enabling the implementation of transaction processing methods in the following languages:
- Visual Basic
- HTML/VBScript
- Active server pages (htm)
- Microsoft SiteServer Commerce Edition
- Other languages that support COM technology
LinkPoint Perl
The LinkPoint Perl wrapper is a common scripting language written for UNIX
and Windows systems used by many e-commerce developers. Perl is freeware;
the only cost incurred for integration is the LinkPoint Perl wrapper software.
Operating systems compatible with LinkPoint Perl wrapper are identical to
those compatible with LinkPoint Select.
LinkPoint ColdFusion Tag
ColdFusion is a server-based scripting solution produced by Allaire Corporation.
The LinkPoint ColdFusion Tag is available for Windows NT. It is a custom
tag that can be simply imported into a ColdFusion server environment.
LinkPoint PHP
The LinkPoint PHP wrapper is written in personal hypertext processor
language and embeds the functionality provided by LinkPoint Select API directly
into the merchant's Web server. The operating systems compatible with the
LinkPoint PHP wrapper are identical to those that are compatible with LinkPoint
Select API.
LinkPoint iHTML Tag
Inline Internet Systems, Inc., has developed a custom iHTML tag, which is
very similar to the ColdFusion tag. For more information, please visit the
