Overview

The application framework will be written in Java and it will provide the basic structure to write an application. The framework will provide the following basic functionality:

• Configuration.
• Globalization (locale, time zone, currency).
• Logging.
• Security (authentication/authorization).
• Actor Management (profiles, roles - required for security; Actors - people, external services) Think of UML Actor. Required to remove dependency on Party
• Persistence (file system or databaseData Store (entity engine).
• Lang package to provide classes that are fundamental to the framework
• Services.
• Runtime management.
