5.8 Managing Application Attributes

Application attributes (also known as the Application Definition) control the behavior of an entire application and are divided into the categories: Definition, Security, Globalization, and User Interface.

Once you create an application, you can review and update all application attributes on the Edit Application Definition page.

"How to Create a Custom Application" for information on using the Supporting Objects utility to create a custom application.

• Editing the Application Definition
  Use the Application Definition page to change general application attributes such as the application name, version number, and control various properties and behaviors (such as logging, debugging, feedback, compatibility mode, application availability, error handling, and substitution strings).
• Configuring Security Attributes
  Configure security for all pages in an application on the Security page. Security attributes are divided into the categories: Authentication, Authorization, Session Management, Session State Protection, Browser Security, and Database Session.
• Configuring Globalization Attributes
  Configure attributes on the Edit Globalization Attributes to configure application globalization options. In App Builder you can develop applications that can run concurrently in different languages.
• Editing User Interface Attributes
  Use the User Interface page to determines the default characteristics of the application and optimize the display.
