Hi all,
I am trying to build a client-server app that must have configurable forms.
I haven't done this sort of thing before, so would appreciate some input.
The client will have a MDI UI.
What I want to achieve is to create winforms on the client based on data
retrieved from the server. I.e., I want to design forms in a seperate app,
"abstract" the forms and "publish" it on the server to be used by the
client. The info passed to the client must include info like form size,
colours, controls (with the respective controls' properties) etc.
In other words, how can I abstract a Winform in one app, and later use that
abstracted info to create the same form in a new app at runtime.
Anyone know of examples or articles?
Thanks in advance!
