Testing and Adjusting Layouts

You must test your layouts on their target platforms. Character layout in the AppBuilder is actually a simulation. This does not replace testing on actual character terminals.

To test a character-mode layout, start database servers for all necessary databases. Next, start the Progress session and connect to the application database in multi-user mode. In the AppBuilder, use the Alternate Layout feature to select the character layout, then run it. The character application runs in the Windows 95/NT console window.

For more information on running character layouts in the AppBuilder, see the chapter on Multiple Layouts in the Progress AppBuilder Developer’s Guide.
