Glossary
- Updated frontend helpers to work with this latest versions using
Angular
andKendo UI
Components for Angular.
- Support for
ASP.Net Core
applications
- C# 5 Syntax is fully supported
- Model Synchronization Moving data between the backend and the frontend, introduction to
Mappers
andData Transfer Objects(DTO)
. - Serialization: Persist the state of object between requests allows the system to unload unneeded objects from memory.
- Session Management: Support for session management out the box using the provided mechanism of
ASP.Net Core
. - Flexible Communication Protocol: Flexible protocol that allow
WebMAP5
to synchronize state and execute custom actions.
- Desktop Compatibility Platforms: This layer allows
WebMAP5
to support different technologies, for exampleWinForms
orPower Builder
. TheseDesktop Compatibility Platforms
consist of all the Models, Event Handler Mechanism, Mappers, DTOs, Error Handling,Server Commands
and Observable Wrappers needed for each technology. EachDCP
is pluggable so different desktop layers can be supported by the sameWebMAP Core Services
layer. At the moment just theWindows Forms
platform is supported, and thePower Build
being under construction. - Modal Dialog: The
WebMAP Core Services
provide a mechanism that allows for the server to stop the execution of arequest
and wait for a response from the user and then continue with the execution of the previous request.
- The debugging experience is improved by hiding
WebMAP Core Services
tasks from the user application code, and leaving the originalBussiness logic
unmodified. - Loggin: An extensible logging mechanism is provided by WebMAP. This eases the debugging process, allowing to easily pinpoint a problem.
- On WebMAP 5, weaving is leveraged to perform some of the changes required so the code can be run on web environments.
By weaving we mean a process that can insert or modify the application code during the compilation process, but in a way that the developers do not have to worry about these modifications, and also in a way that can improve performance, compared with others interception solutions, because it will add little overhead during runtime.
How does Weaving Work?
A program that takes source, and modifies it by inserting aspect-specific logic at joint points. The result are sections of non-visible code in the original code that are executed during runtime.
The point is to keep the modifications required to interact with WebMAP Core Services. To know where and what should we weave into, attributes are used as markers and during the weaving analyzer process the class meta data is recollected and determine the elements that need to be generated.
