NSF components

Use the following guidelines when designing your NSF components:

• Forms -- If you are creating a form to use as a composite application component, be aware that it may be positioned in different areas of the screen, and combined with multiple other components.
• Fields -- If you are creating fields that will be used in a composite application component, be aware that it may be combined with multiple other components.
• Pages -- If you are creating a page to use as a composite application component, be aware that it may be positioned in different areas of the screen, and combined with multiple other components.
• Folders -- Folders may be used as components in composite applications.
• Navigators -- Navigators may be used as components in composite applications.
• Properties -- Determine ahead of time the properties that the component(s) will publish and share
• Actions -- Determine ahead of time the actions that the component will perform when it is wired to the property of another component

Use the following guidelines when designing your Eclipse components:

• Properties -- Determine ahead of time the properties the component(s) will publish and share
• Actions -- Determine ahead of time the actions the component will perform when it is wired to the property of another component.
