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.
