3, Smart Client Features
(1) Dynamically loaded, that is, you need to install
The mutual call between the various components of the application does not use direct reference, but is dynamically loaded, that is, the way to install, effectively reduces the consumption of system resources. Application software developers can develop according to the public interface of the enterprise application system, and then publish the application component on the enterprise server, and the client application will automatically discover and load the application component.
(2) More loose coupling
Since the mutual calls between the above-mentioned constitutors do not use direct reference, the system implemented more loosely coupled, providing an application upgrade update to the application upgrade.
(3) Further modularization
Due to the loose coupling characteristics of the application, the further modularity of the system makes it possible, new features, new features, only need to develop new modules that meet interface definitions and add a connection. There is no need to modify the reproduction of existing procedures.
4. Zero Contact Deployment
As long as you do one main program file to the local, you can run it directly, you don't have to change the registry or shared system components, and other application components will be automatically downloaded at the first runtime.
5. Network load application components
Smart Client's application can easily load applications from the web server, and because the programs and load are implemented from the 80-port, there is no need to consider the firewall problem, which provides convenient for the centralized management of the enterprise system.
6. Automatic update
Simply publish the new version of the program on the server, automatically discover the latest version of the program and application components by the client, and download and update automatically.
7. Applications available online with offline
The SMART Client application despite the use of network loading assemblies, but once loaded, the assembly is cached to the local. When the user starts at least once an application, its assembly is downloaded and cached to the local memory, so the user can run your smart client offline (by converting the browser to offline working status), suppose the application is not You can run it permanently access Web Services or a shared database.
The biggest benefit of building a smart client is to use offline. Although the connection between the business is getting closer, we still can't provide a continuous connection to the enterprise application. Offline mode of operation can automatically receive data and application updates when you re-online, this feature is that people want to get, but before .NET, this is difficult to achieve. Like the fat client, the smart client distributes a lot of processing to the client, which is for the server to eliminate the load that needs to be borne in a web-based application. Finally, the intelligent client takes a user hopes that the application is working - allowing fast data access and management without the need for unnecessary screen updates.
8. Personalized user interface
The user can set the client application according to the preferences, and the configuration information will be saved to the server.
9. Perfect integration with WebServices
The Smart Client app can be easily integrated with WebServices, so you can easily enjoy the perfect user experience of the C / S application without worrying about a series of issues such as firewalls. 4. Smart Client's Advantage
