About This Book

Audience

SAS/AF software provides developers the tools that they need to build enterprise-wide applications that can be integrated with the features and functionality of other SAS software products. Whether you are a component designer who defines the architecture and creates class libraries, or an application developer who uses the supplied components to create applications, this book provides a single reference to begin developing applications with SAS software.

Requirements

The SAS/AF development environment requires a graphics display device capable of displaying the Graphics Editor in SAS/GRAPH output.
You can run frame-based applications on nongraphics devices, but graphics objects will not be displayed, and control objects will be displayed as question marks (?). Such text-based frames are those that do not use SAS/GRAPH output, SAS/GRAPH fonts, graphics control boxes, or special region outlining and titles. For detailed requirements and the most current information, see the system requirements sheet that is shipped with SAS/AF software.
To create and run applications in FRAME entries, you need the following SAS software products:
  • Base SAS software
  • SAS/AF software (required only for creating Frame applications; not required for running Frame applications)
  • SAS/GRAPH software (required for creating or displaying graphics objects or images, for using SAS/GRAPH fonts, and for printing some frame objects)
