Jade 7

Schemas

A schema contains the classes for a particular system. Our library system will contain a Book class and a Borrower class, among others.

You set up a schema using the Add Schema dialog when starting any new project. In the dialog you specify a name for the schema.

You also specify names for the three classes that every schema has:

Application class - to create applications for different groups of users

Global class - to share information between applications

Session class - to access a JADE application using an Internet browser

You also create a map file(s) for the schema. This is a physical database file that stores instances of the classes in your schema.
(An object is an instance of a class.)

You will create a single map file called library.dat, and use it to store instances of all classes, including the Book and Borrower classes.
