	To develop VISTA applications in a 32-bit environment you must have Delphi V. 2.0 or greater. This version of the TRPCBroker component does not allow you to develop applications in Delphi V. 1.0. However, the Broker routines on the M server will continue to support VISTA applications previously developed in the 16-bit environment.

	~~The default installation of the Broker creates a separate Broker Development Kit (BDK) directory (i.e., BDK32) that contains the required Broker files for development.~~

	The Office of Information (OI) will support the Broker Development Kit running in the currently offered version of Delphi and the immediately previous version of Delphi. This level of support became effective 6/12/2000.

	Sites may continue to use outdated versions of the RPC Broker Development Kit but do so with the understanding that support will not be available and that continued use of outdated versions will not afford features that may be essential to effective client/server operations in the VISTA environment. An archive of old (no longer supported) Broker Development Kits will be maintained at: http://vista.med.va.gov/broker/archives/index.html

			The RPC Broker is a client/server system within VA's Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology Architecture (VISTA) environment. It enables client applications to communicate and exchange data with M Servers.

			This manual describes the development features of the RPC Broker. The emphasis is on using the RPC Broker in conjunction with Borland's Delphi software. However, the RPC Broker supports other development environments.

			This manual provides a complete reference for development with the RPC Broker. For an overview of development with the RPC Broker component, see the "RPC Broker V. 1.1 Getting Started with the Broker Development Kit" manual.

			This document is intended for the VISTA development community and Information Resource Management (IRM) staff. A wider audience of technical personnel engaged in operating and maintaining the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) software might also find it useful as a reference.

	To develop VISTA applications in a 32-bit environment you must have Delphi V. 2.0 or greater. This version of the TRPCBroker component does not allow you to develop applications in Delphi V. 1.0. However, the Broker routines on the M server will continue to support VISTA applications previously developed in the 16-bit environment.

	~~The default installation of the Broker creates a separate Broker Development Kit (BDK) directory (i.e., BDK32) that contains the required Broker files for development.~~

	The Office of Information (OI) will support the Broker Development Kit running in the currently offered version of Delphi and the immediately previous version of Delphi. This level of support became effective 6/12/2000.

	Sites may continue to use outdated versions of the RPC Broker Development Kit but do so with the understanding that support will not be available and that continued use of outdated versions will not afford features that may be essential to effective client/server operations in the VISTA environment. An archive of old (no longer supported) Broker Development Kits will be maintained at: http://vista.med.va.gov/broker/archives/index.html
