3. OPScript Language The Script language for YADBrowser Rapid development of educational applications Persistence Components reuse Object Model TUser TRasterObject Tdocument TSprite The Script language for YADBrowser Rapid development of educational applications Persistence Components reuse Object Model TUser TRasterObject Tdocument TSprite

4. MetaData and Reusable Methods TStudent = class string [level] fLevel; end; … var string s; begin... s := GetStringFieldVal(level);... end; TStudent = class string [level] fLevel; end; … var string s; begin... s := GetStringFieldVal(level);... end;

5. Verbal Communication between Objects Makes possible the interaction of two objects without additional programming

6. Verbal Communication between Objects The relationship between the objects is created automatically TExercise = class needs Play; fields string [mediafile] fPath; methods procedure PlayMedia(); begin ExecuteVerb('Play'); end; TPlayer = class methods procedure DoPlay(); var string Path; begin Path := GetStringFieldVal('mediafile');... end; offers Play(DoPlay); end; The relationship between the objects is created automatically TExercise = class needs Play; fields string [mediafile] fPath; methods procedure PlayMedia(); begin ExecuteVerb('Play'); end; TPlayer = class methods procedure DoPlay(); var string Path; begin Path := GetStringFieldVal('mediafile');... end; offers Play(DoPlay); end;

7. Verbal Communication between Objects An important part of the web application development process is reduce to the inclussion of objects Verbal Communication facilitates the adaption of educational applications to the skills and knowledge of a given student An object can interact with different objects An important part of the web application development process is reduce to the inclussion of objects Verbal Communication facilitates the adaption of educational applications to the skills and knowledge of a given student An object can interact with different objects

8. XML Object Models YADBrowser allows loading object models represented in XML files Dynamical addition of object models to the current application model A simpler way to define an object model var Object Graph; begin... Graph:=XMLModel.LoadModelFrom('XMLModels\BeginnerGraph.xml');... end; YADBrowser allows loading object models represented in XML files Dynamical addition of object models to the current application model A simpler way to define an object model var Object Graph; begin...
