For convenience, ULC uses standard URL format to specify
address, port, and application name in one argument. The following
table summarizes how to start ULC components for myApp, an
XD-packaged Smalltalk application:
| Test Mode | Production Mode |
---|---|---|
UI Engine (desktop) | ulcui.exe -server <port number> | ulcui.exe -url ulc://<host> :<port> /myApp |
Application | myapp.exe -url ulc://<host> :<port> | myapp.exe -server <port number> |
Note: | If you are using JRE 1.1.x, rename the existing ulcui.exe to be ulcuiJava2.exe and rename the ulcuiWithJDK11.exe to be ulcui.exe. The UIEngine/bin directory contains the ulcui.exe and ulcuiWithJDK11.exe files. |
In the development image, sample applications can be started from the System Transcript window. First, start the UI Engine. Then, from the menu bar, select ULC.
Running your ULC-based applications from the development image requires handwritten code and system setup. For more information, see Setting up a ULC development image to run in production mode.
Known problem: Because of a Swing bug, the first window of an application can initially appear behind other windows.
