Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
ADM and SmartObjects

Developing Your Application’s Business Logic

The AppBuilder supports the development and deployment of applications in heterogeneous environments (single or combined client/server, n-tier, or Web-enabled environments). The business logic for your application determines how you implement it. Developing and deploying a distributed SmartObject application requires a more detailed understanding of how a SmartDataObject operates, which this chapter provides. It contains the following sections:

SmartDataObject features and operating characteristics
SmartDataObject query and update operations
ADM event procedures and functions in the SmartDataObject
SmartDataObjects and SmartLinks
Validation procedures
Running SmartDataObjects in a distributed environment
Managing SmartDataObjects in distributed mode
AppServer-related SmartDataObject properties
Running SmartDataObjects from a non-Progress client
Java applications and SmartDataObjects
