Package Objects

A package contains the necessary specifications and function libraries to run the business applications. Win32 clients have their own dedicated packages while servers share a single package. For example, to execute the Address Book application on a workstation, the workstation needs the object specifications and the compiled dynamic link library for the Address Book application and for any object that the application uses, such as data dictionary items, tables, and business views. The workstation and Enterprise server will store the compiled libraries on its file system. The object specifications will be stored in a Spec package.

An EnterpriseOne server shares a spec package contained in an enterprise RDMS with other EnterpriseOne servers and other web servers. An EnterpriseOne workstation now has a local database instead of TAM files.
