Agenda• How to Move to Standard Deployment
• ASN settings
• Development vs Deployment
• Uniface Resource Manager
• Compatibility

Classic Style• Update Dol for ever new global object• Dol is shared• Urr is shared• Deployment is not easy• Undo your updates are hard• No partitioning

The Benefits• Easy to deploy: Copy & Paste
• UAR Based on Standard Zip technology
• Easy to do/undo changes
• Run Straight from UARs
• Application Partitioning
www.uniface.comlectures.
Compatibility• Uniface is still installed in classical style• Usys Directory contains both styles • IDF flags /dis /ins /dol /urr still work• $search_descriptor & $search_object are
obsolete in “resources_only” mode• ≥ 9.3 Urr’s & Dol’s are new format• ≥ 9.3 UARs are new format• No migration issues: just recompile your
complete Application in ≥ 9.3
