Specialization
Entity Service specializes Component in the following ways:
-
It has no layout
-
It has no user interface triggers
-
It compiles to a runtime object and a signature.
-
It is usually generated from a Uniface 8 or Uniface 9 application
Entity services are implicitly controlled by the components that have delegated database access to the Entity Service via their Database Behavior and Entity Service properties.
