Quick Start: Generate an application
This quick start guides you through generating a basic Genero business application, using the default template, that can be used to add, update, delete, and query rows in a relational database.
What is Business Application Modeling? Genero Studio Business Application Modeling (BAM) develops business applications from design diagrams rather than from writing code. It automatically generates the logic and source code for a database application to query, add, update and delete rows in database tables.
How code is generated
When you build an application from a Business Application diagram, the build rules define the various files that are input into the Code Generation Engine and the application code files that are output.
The modeling diagrams
Business Application Modeling is based on several diagrams with allow the modeling of the application's features and behavior, each diagram having its own purpose.
Default template features
The default template set (dbapp3.0) is designed to generate organized and functional code for a data-driven business application.
Upgrading a BAM template set
Topics to assist you with upgrading your generated application from one template set to another.
Using templates with another version of compiler
All templates are pre-compiled with the current version of Genero. If you wish to use the templates with a different version of the compiler, you must recompile them with that version.
Deploying a generated application
A generated Genero application can be deployed as a stand-alone application, or it can be called from a menu that is part of a larger system.
