Session Management
Session Management is the process of ensuring that a standard basic environment is set up in each Progress client session, whether the session is a GUI, ChUI, AppServer, WebSpeed or WebClient session. To support Session Management, ICF makes use of several managers to manage various portions of the environment.
The Configuration File Manager is used to start the ICF environment and obtain the necessary bootstrap information to make the connection to the repository and generally get the environment established. The Configuration File Manager Functional Specification describes the manager, the ICFCONFIG configuration file, and the procedures that are required to create it.
The Connection Manager is responsible for providing access to network services such as AppServers and Databases. The Connection Manager Functional Specification describes the manager and specifies how to create user-defined service type managers.
Context Management is the process of ensuring that a session's context is maintained between multiple calls to different physical client sessions. It is specifically there to manage the state of a session between multiple calls to the AppServer or WebSpeed Transaction Server.
