LiveApp Player Integrated Modules and Services

The ability to rapidly create, deploy, and modify custom solutions is made possible by the LiveApp Player’s "ready-to-deploy" modules, which include both runtime and build components.

The runtime components include user interfaces, administrative interfaces, business models and reports. The build components include control objects, GUI objects and their associated property inspectors.

The modules have been assembled and are represented as LiveXML documents. This allows the LiveApp Player modules to be customized for specific solutions if necessary. Additionally, each module includes an administrative screen for easy configuration of the module, as well as screens for end-user access to the application’s functionality.

The administrative screens for the Security feature, for example, let you set up and configure Users, Security Groups, and Roles. To change the application, simply use the screen interface to change Users or Roles.
