Generic Applet Types from the XML Manifest File

Platforms: Windows, UNIX, IBM z/OS.

The example of a generic Mobile applet shown in the following image uses the AppletPR key in the XML manifest file. This key has two entries in the Object Expression view: Mobile and Desktop. The Files view contains the JavaScript file (siebel/jqmformrenderer.js in this example) that the manifest file maps to display the applet.

This image is described in the surrounding text.

The following image shows the entries for the navigation controls, such as ScreenPM, in the UI Objects screen. The Files view contains the following file: siebel/navigationmodel.js.

The following image shows the entries for NAVIGATION_TREE. There is one entry in the Object Expression view: Desktop. The Files view contains the following file: siebel/jsTreeCtrl.js.

The following image shows the entries for NAVIGATION_TAB. There is one entry in the Object Expression view: Desktop. The Files view contains the following file: siebel/accnavigationphyrender.js.

The files specified in the legacy manifest keys, RestOfUIPM and RestOfUIPR, are now located within the entries for UI Objects named PLATFORM_INDEPENDENT and PLATFORM_DEPENDENT. The following image shows the migrated legacy manifest keys.

The migrated legacy manifest keys: Described in the surrounding text.

Files configured against a number of sections in the legacy manifest XML file are now part of these two UI Objects:

PLATFORM DEPENDENT
PLATFORM INDEPENDENT

The following table shows the mapping of the legacy XML file.

Legacy XML Section	Legacy Manifest Specific Subsection	Legacy Manifest Key	UI Object Name	UI Object Expression
COMMON	Not applicable	Not applicable	PLATFORM INDEPENDENT	Not applicable
PLATFORM_ COMMON	PLATFORM Name="IsDesktopApplication()"	Not applicable	PLATFORM DEPENDENT	Desktop
PLATFORM_KEY_ SPECIFIC	PLATFORM Name="IsDesktopApplication()"	Not applicable	PLATFORM DEPENDENT	Desktop
KEY_COMMON	Not applicable	RestOfUIPM	PLATFORM INDEPENDENT	Not applicable
PLATFORM_KEY_ SPECIFIC	PLATFORM Name="IsDesktopApplication()"	RestOfUIPR	PLATFORM DEPENDENT	Desktop

Note: When processing Object Expressions Records to choose files for a given UI Object, the first Expression that evaluates to True is selected, and the file associated with it is downloaded to the browser. However, there is one exception. With the UI Object records of the Application type and Common usage type, all expressions in the Object Expression list are considered, and then they are aggregated and downloaded to the browser.
