Features of CML/LitCrit

The original features of the Corporate Media Library (CML) application are in place. Their implementation is discussed in the following sections:

• Coding the CML User Interface
• Coding CML Database Access
• Coding CML Checkout Requests
• Coding Overdue Notice Delivery
• Coding CML Administration
• Coding Performance into the CML

For this scenario, additional features have been added. Their implementation is discussed in the following sections:

• Creating the Microsoft Outlook Form
• Creating the CML/LitCrit Web Form
• Making the CML Application Work with LitCrit
• Components and Objects in CML/LitCrit
• Using an Event Service Agent
• Using CDO in the CML/LitCrit Application
• Enhancements to the CML

A few changes not related to the creation of the LitCrit application or its integration with the CML application have also been made and are described in the section Enhancements to the CML.

CML/LitCrit Design Topics

For information on the design work that preceded the implementation of these features, see the following sections:

• Designing the CML/LitCrit User-Services Tier
• Test-Driving CML/LitCrit Functionality
• Designing the CML/LitCrit Business-Services Tier
• Designing the CML/LitCrit Data-Services Tier
• The LitCrit Application in Stand-Alone Operation

CML/LitCrit Code

As with all scenarios of the BackOffice® Developer's Guide (BDG), complete source code for the current sample application is available. This is the case whether you have the BDG on a distribution CD or have downloaded it from the Web (see Installing the CML/LitCrit Application). Moreover, to view the .asp, .sql, .inc, and other files containing this source code, you need not search for them on disk. You can also find them within the BDG document in the section Code Listings and Object Reference. Many topics that use code to discuss implementation techniques contain hyperlinks that you can click to see the code file being discussed.
