Warning
From version 18, the User Groupware evolves. This help page corresponds to the User Groupware kept for backward compatibility. To get the help regarding the new version of the User Groupware, see User Groupware.
Overview

Mode for managing the groupware

Two methods can be used to include the User Groupware:
  • the default integration: the entire programming of the User Groupware is automatically included in your application.
    The login window or page is automatically included in your project. The login window or page is displayed when the application is started, allowing the user to connect to the application. You can customize this window or page by applying the skin template of your application for example.
  • custom integration: the entire programming of the User Groupware is automatically included in your application.
    All the windows or pages required to manage the User Groupware (login window or page, windows or pages for user management) are automatically added to your project. You can customize all the windows or pages used by the user groupware.
