New To SDK Questions

sdk development

Hi,

Im new’ish to Business Objects and Webi and have not come across the
SDK before.

I know this is a very broad question, but what can you do with the SDK ?
can it only be used with Webi or can it be used with Full Client as well ?

Any basic info on SDK would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Fi

In addition to following the thread suggested by Eileen, basically the SDK allows you to utilise the methods and properties of ‘business objects’ objects and functions to create addtional functionality to that provided with the product. The WebI and full client SDKs are independant of each other. e.g. if you want the WebI front end to look completely different you can rewrite it using the WebI SDK. You can add forms, combo boxes, list boxes etc, to full client reports using the BO SDK to provide pre-processing and post processing which would be coded in VBA.

I think that’s about right.
