Question Replacing the Updatable browser of Progress App Builder window using .NET class file

[Sachin Acharya]

Hi Everyone,

I am planning to create the updatable browser using .NET(Open Edge Architect), which will be created as a .cls file.

Is it possible to call the class file into an window designed using open edge app builder, so that I will be able to replace the updatable browser of open edge app builder into .net class browser.

Please anyone suggest any idea on this, How to call class file inside window using ABL.

Thanks in Advance

Hi,
We cannot place a .NET controls in an ABL Window. You will need to use .NET ABL Form to place.NET grid.

That is correct: You can not mix and match .NET controls and ABL widgets on an ABL frame ( container ). In order to use .NET controls you need to put them on a .NET form ( container ) on which you can't place ABL widgets.

You can launch a .NET form off of a ABL container and vice versa. The reason for that is that the different containers ( ABL vs. .NET ) are rendered on different runtimes. The ABL container is rendered in the Windows MFC ( yes ... ) and the .NET container is rendered in the .NET CLR.
