In the previous notes, we learned how to develop Native applications to implement offline functions.
Below we will do some of the simplest tasks, that is, the HWC application of sup. HWC is the abbreviation of Hybrid Web Container, that is, the hybrid application that everyone is familiar, this type of application combines the advantages of the native SDK and web application, the most convenient is a single development, cross-platform operation.
To run the HWC application, your client needs to install the sup client. You can think of it as a browser customized by SAP, it has been optimized in terms of security performance and display. The HWC applications developed by using the workflow Form Designer provided by the SDK can run directly on this client, this development mode is suitable for general workflows and common online applications.
In the comparison between offline applications and HWC applications, the advantages and disadvantages of the two methods are obvious. The offline method is relatively complex, but the functions are more powerful and the HWC application development is particularly convenient, suitable for general needs.
Here I made a simple HWC application for customer data query. It only takes 5 minutes to run it on all mobile phones, let's take a look at the interface running on Blackberry and IOS.
