Deployment Process and Site Requirements
Deployment is the process of distributing an application for use in an end-user environment. Before you can deploy a Results application to an end-user environment, you must confirm that the environment has a licensed version of Results installed and also has Progress compilation capabilities.
There are a number of steps in the deployment process that you must perform in the development and end-user environments. Follow these steps to begin the deployment process for a Results application in the development environment:
Once you have the application and database files ready for distribution, the deployment process shifts to building the application in the end-user environment. To build a Results application in the user environment, do the following:
- Create the application directory and file structure.
- If you deployed all or a portion of your application databases, create the application database if necessary and then load the deployed data definitions and data.
- If you edited the source files for the Results help system, compile the help system and move the resulting help file into the
prohelp
product directory.- Compile the deployed feature and integration procedures using the Application Compiler.
- Start Results and rebuild the fastload system.
The remaining sections provide more information about the deployment process and the application components involved in this process.
