2.9 Function Access Scope

An engine's connection (or lack of one) limits the kinds of functions it can call within the TS API. When the engine is not connected to a TSA, the only function that the engine can call are the following:

• NWSMConnectToTSA
• NWSMListSMDRs
• NWSMListTSAs

After connecting to the TSA, the engine can access the following functions:

• NWSMTSConnectToTargetService
• NWSMTSConnectToTargetServiceEx
• NWSMTSGetTargetServiceType
• NWSMTSListTargetServices
• NWSMReleaseTSA
• NWSMTSScanTargetServiceName

After connecting to the Target Service, the engine can access all TS API functions.

Normally, when an engine connects to a TSA and the Target Service, and then disconnects from the Target Service, the engine can still call these functions.
