LANSA Application Design

16.3.2 LANSA for the Web

LANSA for the Web has two main application types:

  • Webevent Functions: These are special functions that generate HTML or XML for DISPLAY, REQUEST, and POP_UP commands. They do not allow 16.1.1 Unicode Field Types to be displayed and edited. However, RDMLX Webevent functions do allow other RDMLX field types to be displayed, unlike 16.3.1 RDML Functions.

If your application consists mainly of Webevent Functions, the recommended approach is to extend your application with WAMs where Unicode data needs to be displayed. Refer to WAM and Webevent Interoperability in the Web Applications Modules (WAM) Guide for recommended techniques.

If your application consists mainly of WAMs, there are no special instructions, just enhance your application as desired.
