  1. Web ClientTechnology An Overview

  2. Web Client Technology • What is it???

  3. Web Client Technology • Web Client Technologyis an Omnis based technology that allows • The visual aspect of a program to be separated from the procedural part. • Interaction with and generation of HTML forms/pages

  4. Web Client Technology • The visual aspect can be instantiated on: • The same machine as the server • A machine on the same intranet • A machine on the internet

  5. Web Client Technology • The visual aspect is instantiated with: • Netscape Win, Mac 9 & X and Linux Netscape Plugin • Internet Explorer Win - Active X Mac - Netscape Plugin • All browsers - HTML • Other Programs - HTML or Active X

  6. How does it allfit together?

  14. How is it different?

  15. How is it different • Provides an “Application Environment” instead of HTML or Java forms

  16. How is it different • Provides an “Application Environment” instead of HTML or Java forms • Uses Standard HTTP protocols

  17. How is it different • Provides an “Application Environment” instead of HTML or Java forms • Uses Standard HTTP protocols • Does not show users what is on the back end.

  18. How well does it work?

  19. Is it scalable?

  20. Setting up a Development Environment

  21. Server Properties $serverport$servermaxrequests$serverstacks$timeslice

  22. The Remote TaskProperties $maxtime$timeout$maxusers$issecure$clientaddress$connectionid$connectiontime$lastresponse$connectbytesent $requests$reqtotbytesreceived$reqtotbytesent$reqmaxbytesreceived$reqmaxbytessent$reqcurbytesreceived$reqcurbytessent

  23. The Remote TaskMethods $canclose$close$changeform(cFormName)$openform(cFormName)$closeform(cFormName)

  24. The Remote TaskHTML Form Access <form method="Get" action="/cgi-bin/omnisapi.dll"> <input type="hidden" name="OmnisLibrary" value="Test"> <input type="hidden" name="OmnisClass" value="rtTask_1"> <input type="hidden" name="OmnisServer" value="5912"> <input type="hidden" name=”ConnectionID" value=”1234"> <input type=”text" name=”UserName" value="ABC"> <input type="submit" value="Simple Call"> </form>
