Recap
What did we just see?

• A small application made from Scratch
• Existing of 2 services, view and create.
• The create services accesses outlook.
• The SMS service is an existing free available
  service on the internet which was used to route
  the SMS to our email adres.

6
Recap
How did we make this possible?

• A best practice approach for application
  development based on
• OpenEdge 10.1
• Model driven development
• Round trip engineering

7
OE-SDK
Definition

• Consists of tools (Enterprise Architect and
  design time catalog) and the knowledge (base
  classes and services) to support a development
  team to build a modern OpenEdge Reference
  Architecture-based application within the
  OpenEdge development environment.

8
Background of OE-SDK
Occasion

• OE-SDK was initially developed to support a large
  IT project in the Netherlands in the travel
  industry.
• OE-SDK is developed in close cooperation by the
  Dutch Prof Services team, the EMEA Prof Services
  team and architects of Progress Corporate.
• OE-SDK has been proven essential for the
  succesful implementation at the BGN RFID pilot in
  Almere.

OAD Project
Background

• The pre-requisites for this project included
• Multiple UIs (customers portals, backoffice)
• OpenEdge Reference Architecture based
• OpenEdge 10.1A
• Single set of business logic
• Use of UML to communicate with the business.

11
BGN RFID Pilot
Back ground

• The pre-requisites for this project included
• State of the art technology like RFID reader
  Apama, EasyAsk, OpenEdge 10.1, Sonic ESB, Web
  services
• New standards (still evolving), like GEN2 for
  RFID
• Multiple suppliers in different part of the world
• Use of UML to communicate with the business.
• High pressure due to fixed deadlines

Design time catalog
Function

• Control center
• Enrich information from UML Design
• Gather information from multiple sources
• Forward engineer skeletons AND standard code
• Reverse engineer back to repository and UML
  design

OE-SDK is based on
Wrap up

• Based on best practice
• Model driven development approach
• (Covers large part of SDLC)
• OpenEdge Reference Architecture

23
OE-SDK consists of
Wrap up

• Design time catalog
• Tools for import/export
• Tool to enrich catalog data
• Tools for forward and reverse engineer
• Architecture implementation
• Base classes written with object oriented
  extensions in the ABL.

24
OE-SDK
Simplifies the job of making the best OpenEdge RA
applications

• UML naturally evolves to OO extensions in
  OpenEdge ABL
• Simple static OpenEdge ABL for application
  programmer
• Simple base classes with generic code for generic
  application code
