Table of contents
We are pleased to welcome you to Eloquence WEBDLG2, the new web browser
interface for Eloquence DLG providing complete JDLG object and attribute
compatibility.
WEBDLG2 allows to use Eloquence DLG applications from any computer or
mobile device, no additional software installation required.
Please note:
This is a beta version, intended for test and evaluation use.
It may not meet the release criteria for quality or performance.

Overview
WEBDLG2 offers the following improvements over its predecessor, WEBDLG v1:
- WEBDLG2 provides complete JDLG 2.0 object and attribute compatibility.
- WEBDLG2 uses the WebSocket technology to implement a fast bidirectional
low latency communication. WEBDLG2 provides the lowest possible
application response times even under wide area network conditions.
- Dialogs are fully dynamic, the HTML document is updated in place and
never reloaded. Applications can update the user interface at any time
so that, for example, DLG DRAW now works as expected.
- WEBDLG2 uses a single server process, the
eloqwebd2 server. The WEBDLG v1
mod_eloq Apache httpd web server module is no longer used,
which removes the related complexities and performance bottlenecks.
- WEBDLG2 implements new DLG features to allow applications to support
different screen sizes. For example, Dialogs may be configured to
show reduced content if an application is run on a mobile device.
- The eloqwebd2 server provides an
internal web server to serve static
documents, typically eliminating the need to configure and run a
separate web server, e.g., Apache httpd.
Limitations of the current WEBDLG2 version:
Web browser compatibility
On the web browser, WEBDLG2 makes extensive use of contemporary Javascript
and CSS functionality. It is compatible with any recent web browser,
including Microsoft Internet Explorer 11.

| Edge | 18 |
