Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
AppBuilder

Customizing AppBuilder

This appendix documents two techniques for customizing AppBuilder. It discusses the following topics:

Creating custom object files
Creating extended features (XFTRs)
AppBuilder’s API
Example using AppBuilder’s API

Note that you can also use ADE hooks to change the behavior of AppBuilder; however, this appendix does not discuss this technique. For information, see the OpenEdge Development: Basic Development Tools manual (character only; information for MS-Windows is in online help).

Note: Customizing AppBuilder, especially using XFTR features, is an advanced feature. You do not need to understand the material in this appendix to use AppBuilder effectively.
