| | Application programming interface - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | An application programming interface (API) is the interface that a computer system, library or application provides in order to allow requests for service to be made of it by other computer programs, and/or to allow data to be exchanged between them. | | | Many types of systems and applications implement APIs, such as graphics systems, databases, networks, web services, and even some computer games. | | | Interfaces intended for the fastest execution often consist of sets of functions, procedures, variables and data structures. |

| | MQSeries Application Programming Interface |
| | The definitions of the calls, structures and constants are given in header files for each of the supported programming languages. | | | If the application requested that the queue manager generate the contents of the message identifier field in the control information section of the message (by using the constant MQMI_NONE), the call inserts the value in the field before the structure is returned. | | | An example program is included at the end of this document that demonstrates the use of this call. |

| | This could be useful in sophisticated applications where a NExS instance is connected to several client programs, perhaps running on different computers on a network. | | | The only prerequisites for creating a client application which utilizes the NExS connection library are a C or Fortran compiler and the X11 (release 3 or higher) object library. | | | The Fortran interface to the NExS connection library is written to conform to the Fortran 77 standard. |

| | A Critique of the Windows Application Programming Interface |
| | Applications have to continuously process events posted by the operating system in order to exhibit the requisite liveness properties and be compliant with the provided interface. | | | It is therefore difficult to port existing system-programming applications directly to it without resorting to the use of a relatively thick compatibility layer that isolates the application from the Windows system. | | | One exemplar result of this simple-minded approach is that application installation disks created with the Visual Basic 3.0 development environment on a Windows 95 platform will destroy the setup of a Windows 3.1 platform when an installation is attempted. |

| | TMAPI - Common Topic Map Application Programming Interface |
| | TMAPI is a programming interface for accessing and manipulating data held in a topic map. | | | The TMAPI specification defines a set of core interfaces which must be implemented by a compliant application as well as a set of additional interfaces which may be implemented by a compliant application or which may be built upon the core interfaces. | | | For an application developer, this leads to non-portable code; the need to learn a new API for every topic map implementation he or she uses and the lack of a community of supporting developers. |

| | The C Application Programming Interface to SVL |
| | MOE was developed around an embedded programming language, the Scientific Vector Language (SVL), which is used by both applications developers and MOE users to extend and customize existing features of MOE, and to rapidly design, test, and deploy entirely new features and methodology. | | | A non-trivial, but straightforward example of programming with the C API is the interface to the Daylight Toolkits and is distributed with MOE 1997.09. | | | Many applications use internal resources, such as files, databases, memory buffers, or graphic objects. |

| | Application Programming Interface - Computerworld |
| | Application programming interfaces (API) can seem vague, and vendors or developers might wave them around like magic wands that solve all problems. | | | To accomplish this, the asking program uses a set of standardized requests, called application programming interfaces (API), that have been defined for the program being called upon. | | | Application developers and vendors must constantly be thinking about whether their APIs will be understandable to future developers. |

| | As it’s name implies, it is an interface that queries the Google database to help programmers in the development of their applications. | | | Although mostly intended for Web developers, search engine implementations or Internet applications that query the Internet using the Google database, Google’s API could be of some help for you, depending on your general level of knowledge or expertise in Web technology and your programming skills. | | | As of now, the available resources to fully implement and support the program are rather limited, which explains why there is a 1,000 queries a day limit on all accounts. |
