Open UI

[Former Member]

In this discussion: 

Bill mentions at the bottom open UI for agentry.  How do I go about getting an environment set up to use this feature?

Also, (maybe a silly question) can you wrap other applications with this?

Development environment setup will depend on what platform you are trying to customize using native development tools.

iOS = Mac with XCode

WPF = Visual Studio

Android = Eclipse / ADT Bundle

The setup for each toolset is assumed to already exist when starting work on Open UI.

As part of the SMP3 SDK within the Agentry Toolkit there is an OpenUISDK which contains the framework projects and sample controls for each platform.  You can load these in the appropriate development environment to get starting building the OpenUI code.

Have fun!

Awesome thanks Bill, another question for you then is; how do you then apply what you work on to your agentry application?

Your client is built with the additional OpenUI code and then in your Agentry Editor you set the External Field properties to point to your new class name.  You can then also specify External values (data back to agentry from OpenUI), Agentry Values (Data sent into OpenUI from Agentry) and Actions (Agentry actions that the OpenUI control can invoke).
