Understanding start menus
This is an introduction to start menus.
The start menu defines a tree of commands that start programs on the application server where the runtime system executes.
Startmenus are not supported with embeeded mobile apps.
It is recommended that you create a specific program dedicated to running the start menu. This program must create (or load) a start menu, and then perform an interactive instruction to enter the interaction loop.
The start menu must be defined in the abstract user interface tree under the
"UserInterface
" root node.
The start menu is unique for a program and cannot be redefined.
When a start menu command is selected by the user, the runtime system automatically starts a child process with the command specified in the command attribute.
By default, the start menu is not displayed: Use presentation style attributes to control the rendering of a start menu.
