How You Can Use Object Factory Methodology
The re-engineering process consists of the following steps:
1. Convert the original application from a fat client with business logic in frame scripts into a fat client with business logic in user class methods.
2. Move the business logic into a separate application that includes the graphical user interface (GUI) application.
3. Write an application server that implements an object factory to drive the business logic. The business logic is contained in the same included application that the GUI client uses.
4. Test and debug the converted application in both the client server and fat client/fat server modes.
