Audience

This SOLA documentation is directed specifically at the advanced developer who is interested in understanding the relationship between AAWS and a working sample online application, developed using the PeopleTools Internet Architecture (PIA). We expect that the SOA concepts and technical capabilities illustrated with this example will be applicable when implementing AAWS with other user interface tools.

In order to gain a comprehensive understanding of how SOLA works, your developer needs to be aware of three distinct types of documentation associated with this sample feature:

  • The first is this SOLA documentation. This documentation contains a technical overview of how SOLA works from a functional perspective, its design, as well as some references to additional supporting documentation.

  • The second is a complete object inventory. This is a HTML version of a Technical Design Document (TDD). In this document you will find every object (that is, Fields, Record Definitions, Pages, Components, PeopleCode, and so on.) that make up SOLA. You can find this document in My Oracle Support (ID 1492390.1).

  • Finally, there is the application package PeopleCode for this sample (SAD_OLA_DEMO). In each of the application classes are comments documenting the inner workings of SOLA.

The developer is strongly encouraged to become knowledgeable with the content in all three types of documentation to gain a comfortable understanding of AAWS and how it interacts within SOLA. When combined and internalized, this troika of information is intended to educate the developer on the use and deployment of AAWS within your institution.
