Chapter 2: Example: A Simple <strong>Mobile</strong> App<br />

Setting preferences<br />

When you first start Progress Developer Studio for <strong>OpenEdge</strong> (Developer Studio) to<br />

create a <strong>Mobile</strong> App, you need to set some preferences. The <strong>Mobile</strong> App Builder runs<br />

in a Web browser, so you must specify one. The browser must be HMTL5 compliant.<br />

Note: The names for the project, <strong>Mobile</strong> App, Business Entity, and other items given<br />

in this example must be used exactly as is for the <strong>Mobile</strong> App to work. These<br />

names are used in the code provided in this chapter. See the<br />

“Troubleshooting” section on page 60 for more information.<br />

To select a web browser:<br />

1. Select Window→ Preferences→ General→ Web Browser.<br />

2. Select Use external web browser.<br />

3. Choose a supported browser. If no supported browser is listed but you have one<br />

installed, click New, type in the browser’s name, and then browse to the installed<br />

location.<br />

4. Click Apply.<br />

You must also enter login credentials to use the <strong>Mobile</strong> App Builder.<br />

To enter your credentials:<br />

1. Select Window→ Preferences. Expand Progress <strong>OpenEdge</strong> and select <strong>Mobile</strong><br />

App Builder. Click Next.<br />

2. Enter the user name and password associated with your Progress account.<br />
