The Browser Within Your GUI: Seamlessly Integrating Modern Web Browsers into Your OpenEdge Application

 

Are you looking to embed  a modern browser, such as Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge, into your GUI application? Do you need to integrate a data-warehouse portal or connect your  Progress GUI application code  and  new web application components? Do you want to ensure a smooth transition path for your users?

 

In this session, we`ll explore how to integrate  a modern web browser into an OpenEdge GUI application. You`ll discover how browser-based components and desktop windows can interact seamlessly, whether directly within the client or through a messaging infrastructure.

 

Additionally, we`ll cover strategies to eliminate  duplicate logins between desktop and web application, ensuring a unified and user-friendly experience.  This session is perfect for those looking to modernize their applications and bridge the gap between traditional and web-based components.
