Building the Sample Form

The following example is created using the Visual Café 3.0 development environment. The example demonstrates how

to build an applet that allows you to enter an account ID and use a NonStop

TUXEDO service to get and show the

account balance. The basic steps to create this example are as follows:

Choose File | New Project and select either JFC Applet or AWT application. This step provides you with the

basic form designer on which you drop the JoltBeans.

Drag and drop all of the JoltBeans you want to use in your applet from the Component Library onto the form

designer.

Modify or customize each bean using the property list or the Custom Property Editor.3.

Wire the beans together using the Interaction Wizard.4.

Compile the applet.5.
