Pages

On the basis of the data model you have specified in USoft Definer:

•An Info Page class exists for each table.

•A Lookup Page class exists for each time a table is parent in a Relationship. In addition, generic lookup page classes exist for every table and logical view. You can use these if you want to make connections between tables that are not a Relationship in USoft Definer.

•A Related Page class exists for each time a table is child in a Relationship. In addition, general related page classes exist for every table and logical view. You can use these if you want to make connnections between tables that are not a Relationship in USoft Definer.

These classes are found on the Pages tab of the Web Designer catalog.

This catalog also offers a range of generic Page classes NOT based on the data model. One development style in Web Designer is to build all the pages yourself, as subclasses of these generic classes, thereby ignoring the default Page classes based on your data model. This development style can be equally productive and easy-to-maintain, because you can still use default Data Source classes for interaction with data, and these Data Source classes are also automatically based on the data model.
