External 3GL examples

SilverStream provides a set of 3GL code examples to help you learn about the kinds of objects and applications you can develop in external IDEs (such as JBuilder, VisualCafe, InLine, or Dreamweaver). Examples include EJBs, JSPs, servlets, and Java clients.

For more information on the external 3GL examples, see Using External IDEs.

Installing and running sample applications

Sample applications are installed on your hard drive and accessible as Sybase Adaptive Server Anywhere databases when you install the SilverStream server with specific options. After installation, you must add the sample databases to your server before you can run the applications.

To install and run sample applications:

Install the SilverStream server with these options:

Select one of these installation types:

Type of install

What happens

Typical install

Installs all sample applications and creates their ODBC settings, but does not add them to your server. This option is recommended to conserve space on the server.

Full install

Installs all sample applications, creates their ODBC settings, and adds all sample applications to your server at once.

Custom install

If you select Sample databases, installs sample applications you select, creates their ODBC settings, and adds them to your server.

Type of install	What happens
Typical install	Installs all sample applications and creates their ODBC settings, but does not add them to your server. This option is recommended to conserve space on the server.
Full install	Installs all sample applications, creates their ODBC settings, and adds all sample applications to your server at once.
Custom install	If you select Sample databases, installs sample applications you select, creates their ODBC settings, and adds them to your server.

By default, you can access these databases with the user name dba and password sql.

If you chose Typical install, add sample applications of your choice to your server by selecting Add Database from the Main Designer or by using the SilverCmd AddDatabase command-line tool.
Run the sample application. Click individual links for application-specific instructions:
