Interface DynamicScreenGenerator

public interface DynamicScreenGenerator
DynamicScreenGenerators can be registered with the SmartClient Server framework via the ScreenLoaderServlet.addDynamicScreenGenerator(DynamicScreenGenerator) method. The framework will call the getScreen method of registered DynamicScreenGenerators whenever it needs to obtain a screen, giving user code a means of generating screen definitions at runtime, rather than (or as well as) providing them as .ui.xml files in the filesystem.
