1. A method for providing a stream-based communication system comprising the steps of:
- defining on a central system a shared fixed format on interface code for a sending system and a receiving system;
downloading the shared fixed format from the central system to the sending system and the receiving system;
translating a message to be sent from the sending system to the receiving system based on the shared fixed format;
sending the message from the sending system using a stream-based protocol;
receiving the message by the receiving system; and
translating the message received by the receiving system based on the shared fixed format;
wherein where the shared fixed format maps the fixed location and fixed size of each attribute in the message; and
wherein the shared fixed format is stored on both the sending system and receiving system subsequent to being downloaded from the central system.

Abstract
A system, method, and article of manufacture are disclosed for providing a stream-based communication system. A shared format is defined on interface code for a sending system and a receiving system. A message to be sent from the sending system to the receiving system is translated based on the shared format. Once translated, the message is then sent from the sending system and received by the receiving system. Once the message is received by the receiving system, the message is then translated based on the shared format.
