A Workflow Application project is a project for managing all files (process definitions, forms, icons, simulation scenarios, etc.) that are required for performing any task with your application. Systemwalker Runbook Automation Studio allows you to design Workflow application projects offline. Later you can deploy such an application to the Management Server from the Web Console.
Workflow Application projects help you to develop and deploy rich internet and composite applications very rapidly by providing a design and runtime environment that does not require skills in JavaScript, HTML and CSS. If you have larger projects and consequently have a high number of layouts and adapter classes, you might want to structure your development activities in a better way. For this reason, Systemwalker Runbook Automation Studio allows you to separate your project's resources in Workflow Application projects.
A Workflow Application project is represented in the file system by a single directory. It groups all the process definitions, forms, attachments, etc. which are specific to a business process. The default project directory contains all components that are required for running a process solution (refer to section Appendix B Project Components for a complete overview), for example:
QuickForm JSP files
HTML files generated from layout definitions
Required images or required HTML files
Java Script files
Simulation scenarios and simulation result files
Calendar files
Configuration file for Java Agents used by the application
FTP Agent files
HTTP Agent files
Custom Config files
File Listener files
Adapter classes
Rule files
Document files
Help files
Also, refer to 2.2 Workbench Window for the Automated Operation Process Development Perspective for more information about these components.
