Developing applications that use work areas

About this task

Applications interact with the work area service by using the UserWorkArea interface and its implementation. This interface defines all of the methods used to create, manipulate, and complete work areas:

Procedure

  1. Access a partition by either: The following steps use the UserWorkArea partition as an example, however a user defined partition can be used in the same way.
  2. Beginning a work area.
  3. Setting properties in a work area.
  4. Using a work area to manage local work.
  5. Completing a work area.

Example

An example application, the Work area SimpleSample application, is used throughout this documentation to illustrate these tasks.
