About Mobile Development
Software AG Designer provides a set of Mobile Development features that you can use to develop mobile applications. Use the Mobile Development perspective to display the views and editors needed to work with mobile applications.
Mobile Development uses the principles of model view controller (MVC) architecture, which separates the user interface from the business logic and data.
When using Mobile Development, you define the user interface in the Outline Editor that Mobile Development provides. In the Outline Editor, you can also define additional information for the mobile project, such as the languages the application supports or identify services that your application uses to obtain data.
Mobile Development generates Java code for the application. The generated code is based on the project you define in the Outline Editor. When generating the code, Mobile Development maintains code that it generates separate from the business logic code that you provide. Mobile Development generates code, for example, that displays the user interface you design and that can respond to user-initiated events, such as when a user presses a button.
Mobile Development also creates Java classes where you put your business logic. These Java classes are placed in a location known as the user space. After initially creating the Java classes, in the user space, Mobile Development does not make any further changes to the classes so that any code you add is not overwritten or changed.
