Name of the OpenUI extension class Agentry will instantiate

Extension Values

Collection of named StringValues that Agentry can request from control

Agentry Values

Collection of named StringValues the control can request from Agentry

Agentry Actions

Collection of Action and Target pairs the control can request Agentry to run



Open UI API documentation outline

Each client OS type has its own API that follows native coding conventions.o Android, iOS, and WPF.

o ActiveX is alternative for Win32 and WinCE

Example Android API outline

ClientAdapters

o You extend these classes for your control. Insert your code, Here!!!

Model

o Provides access to Agentry data and functionality.

Core

Data API

o Property to native type conversion.

&&

o Support classes mostly enums.



Open UI Implementation Components

You need to:

Extend an Adapter provided

Create View to provide to Agentry

Bind Model data to View

If needed:

Update as Agentry changes value

Provide ExtensionStrings to Agentry

Agentry will:

Call initialize method to provide

Model (data) and Context

Accept updated Input value

If needed:

Provide additional Strings to control.



Additional Model features

State

isEnable(), isVisible(), isHidden()

Validity

ProcessInputReturn.Valid == processInput(newValue)

Type-specific attributes

getMaximumValue() & getMinimumValue()

Other

getLabel(), isHyperlinkEnabled(), executeHyperlinkAction()



Additional Adapter options

Options for controlling Agentry behavior

isAgentryDisplayingLabel()

isAgentryDisplayingValidationFailure()

Get notified of changes from Agentry

valueChanged()

setEnable(boolean)

setVisible(boolean)

setHidden(boolean)

setHyperlinkEnabled(boolean)

updateLabel(String)

setValid(boolean, String)



Open UI APIdeveloper definition

Open UI API provides native developers with the ability to implement an alternate

Screen Field control for anyAgentry Propertytype.

The API enables you to override certain Field Edit Types for a detail screen field.

The API supports communication between the control and the client including:

Display and Editing of the screen field property,

Provide External values as Strings to Agentry,

Read Named Agentry String Values from Agentry.

Trigger execution of Named Agentry Actions.



Open UI summary

Allows developers to write custom controls to replace Agentry controls.Agentry provides control

Field Property value for display

List of Agentry (String) Values

List of Action/Target pairs

Control can provide Agentry Updated value for Field Property

List of Extension (String) Values

Achieved through using the Model-View-Adapter architectural pattern

Agentry provides the model

Developer implements the methods of in the adapter interface

Native View returned for display within Agentry screen

Android, iOS and WPF are packaged and distributed within SMP 3 SDK.
