How to Run the Sample as an Application

This sample can be run as an application. The installation directory contains an executable JAR file, db-schedule.jar, that allows you to execute the sample with a double click from a file browser. Note that if you are using Internet Explorer, you can open the installation directory and execute the JAR file from the browser. This technique may not work in other Web browsers.

Alternatively, you can run the sample application from the command line. First check that the Ant utility is properly configured. If not, see the instructions on how to configure Ant for Perforce JViews.

ant run

Topics Covered

Detailed Description

This sample shows how to efficiently connect a resource-oriented Schedule Chart to read-only back-end scheduling data that is stored in tabular format. GanttDBRO defines the read-only interface to the back-end data. For the purposes of this sample, the GanttModelDBROWrapper class simulates the back-end scheduling data by encapsulating an existing Gantt data model that has been parsed from an SDXL data file. DBROGanttModel is the custom data model implementation that connects to the back-end data via the GanttDBRO interface.
