All Open Clients use equivalent mechanisms to access an AppServer application service. In general, accessing an AppServer using an Open Client interface follows this process:
1. Connect to an AppServer that supports the required application service, by instantiating an AppObject (and calling connect for SOAP Web services).
2. Instantiate any other proxy objects whose methods you want to call.
3. Execute proxy methods that run remote procedures and functions on the AppServer.
4. Disconnect from the AppServer when it is no longer needed.
