The Benefits

• Easy to deploy: Copy & Paste

• UAR Based on Standard Zip technology

• Easy to do/undo changes

• Run Straight from UARs

• Application Partitioning

Compatibility• Uniface is still installed in classical style• Usys Directory contains both styles • IDF flags /dis /ins /dol /urr still work• $search_descriptor & $search_object are

obsolete in “resources_only” mode• ≥ 9.3 Urr’s & Dol’s are new format• ≥ 9.3 UARs are new format• No migration issues: just recompile your

complete Application in ≥ 9.3
