How Siebel CRM References Symbolic Strings at Runtime

Siebel CRM uses the same repository before and after a conversion. For example, an applet gets the value for the Title property from a child applet locale record. During conversion, Siebel does the following:

  1. Creates a symbolic string.

  2. Places the reference for this symbolic string in the Title - String Reference property of the applet.

  3. Removes the applet locale record.

After Siebel finishes conversion it gets the applet title from the symbolic string. The display value for the title that it compiles is the same value that this title contained before the conversion. Siebel compiles strings into object definitions in the repository. Siebel CRM reads symbolic strings from these object definitions. It does not read them from the S_SYM_STR table at runtime.
