Getting background information on WebSphere Application Clients
- What is an Application Client?
WebSphere Application Server provides several Application Clients so that
client applications can easily access a WebSphere Application Server. The
Application Clients provide a tested and supported framework to interact
with WebSphere Application Server, saving time and difficulty in trying to
create homemade stand-alone clients.
- What types of Application Clients does WebSphere
Application Server provide?
The answer can be found here:
- ActiveX
application client (Windows® platforms only)
WebSphere Application Server provides an ActiveX to EJB bridge that
enables ActiveX programs to access WebSphere Enterprise JavaBeans through
a set of ActiveX automation objects.
- Applet
client (Windows platforms only)
The applet client provides a browser-based Java runtime capable of
interacting with enterprise beans directly, instead of indirectly through
a servlet.
- J2EE
application client
The J2EE application client programming model provides the benefits of
Java™ 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE).
- Pluggable
application client (Windows platforms only)
The pluggable application client is a thin application client that uses
the Sun Java run-time environment (JRE) instead of the IBM JRE
environment.
- Thin
application client
This application client is a Java application client without the J2EE
client container support. It uses a different programming model than the
J2EE application client.
- Where is there more information about WebSphere
Application Clients?
The WebSphere Application Server Infocenters contain sections devoted to
application clients. Good places to start in the information center are here
and here.
