Application programming interface (API)

چکیده
An application programming interface (API) is a specification intended to be used as an interface by software components to communicate with each other. An API may include specifications for routines, data structures, object classes, and variables. An API specification can take many forms, including an International Standard such as POSIX or vendor documentation such as the Microsoft Windows API, or the libraries of a programming language, e.g. Standard Template Library in C++ or Java API. An API differs from an application binary interface (ABI) in that the former is source code based while the latter is a binary interface. For instance POSIX is an API, while the Linux Standard Base is an ABI.[1]

متن کاملApplication programming interface
In computer programming, an application programming interface (API) is a set of routines, protocols, and tools for building software applications. An API expresses a software component in terms of its operations, inputs, outputs, and underlying types. An API defines functionalities that are independent of their respective implementations, which allows definitions and implementations to vary wit...

متن کاملComparing Document Object Model (DOM) and Simple API for XML (SAX) in Processing XML Document in Leave Application System
The Extensible Markup Language (XML) consists of two Application Programming Interface (API) i.e. Document Object Model (DOM) and Simple Application of XML (SAX). Previous research has used the DOM API in the Leave Application prototype. In this research, the DOM API based code that developed in the prototype will be changed to SAX API based code. The performance measurement then is carried out...
