SmartDataBrowsers
SmartDataBrowsers are Browse widgets enhanced with ADM Smart technology. A SmartDataBrowser presents the results of a query in simple row/column tabular format. Each row displayed in a SmartDataBrowser always represents one record from the data stream (the record itself might be a dynamic composite created by a JOIN operation). Each column represents one of the fields in the records. The SmartDataBrowser can display any of the standard data types that can be represented by ASCII text.
A SmartDataBrowser displays and possibly updates data supplied by a SmartDataObject to which the SmartDataBrowser is connected by SmartLinks.
AppBuilder supplies two types of SmartDataBrowser for your use:
- Dynamic — You place an instance of the predefined dynamic SmartDataBrowser in your application. This object is able to connect to and interact with any SmartDataObject.
- Static — Using the Wizard provided by AppBuilder, you define a static SmartDataBrowser master object to connect to and cooperate with a particular SmartDataObject. You later select and place an instance of the master object in your application.
