Building the Sample Application
This chapter covers building a sample application from the objects you just generated. The application conforms to the Progress Dynamics best practices, allowing you to create all the elements of the application without having to write any 4GL code to customize its behavior. However, you can customize or extend every aspect of the framework and its components as needed to satisfy the requirements of your applications.
To help you understand more of what the framework does, explanatory information is interspersed within the tutorial steps. For detailed information on these general tasks, see OpenEdge Development: Progress Dynamics Basic Development and OpenEdge Development: Progress Dynamics Advanced Development .
As you work through this tutorial, you will be:
Figure 4–1 shows a few screen shots of the completed application to give you an idea of what you are building.
