This section is a repository of various presentations that I have given... Any feedback is gratefully received if there are any inaccuracies - or even thanks!

Please note that these presentations represent my view on the subjects presented at the time presented, and may not necessarily reflect the views of other employees of any Company I work at or with, the sponsors of the exhibitions that I present at, or the software vendors whose products may be mentioned during the presentation. Feel free to argue with them - if I get enough interest I might even open a forum for you to commend / berate my views!!

Any software examples given are installed at your own risk, and I accept no liability for any unforeseen effects it may have on your system - consequently, I would recommend using them on a non-essential / easily overinstallable environment in case they cause you any problems. They shouldn't, but you never know - and what may work today may cause issues in future versions (backward compatibility being what it isn't).

04/12/2007 PeopleSoft Application Classes - Easing the Path to Fusion [UK Oracle User Group Conference 2007, Birmingham]
Application Classes have been available for a while now as an alternative to function libraries in PeopleTools. The object-oriented thinking that embodies this technology can be seen as the road forwards to the final Fusion development architecture. This seminar gives some real-life examples of how to use Application Classes as a framework for your business logic, and goes through some of the pros and cons for Designers, Programmers and Managers. It also shows examples of how this technology is actively employed within PeopleSoft Application and Portal technology. It argues the advantages of reusable and extensible coding, and that it is a mid-path shift in mindset that will ease the eventual change from PeopleCode to Java, and make the transition from PeopleCode to class-based Java far more intuitive, thus minimising the transitional learning curve and business impact of developer retraining. Time to get object oriented.

* n.b. to use change package (containing project code etc. for the examples in this presentation), either run through change assistant, or unzip the package, and import the contained .XML file project using Application Designer by navigating to the updukough2007_human\HUMAN directory and importing the project located here. Please note that the SQL used for the update and compare is SQL Server based - you may like to change this to the Oracle equivalent if you have difficulty getting it to work (or better still, use the proper database-independent % constructs - e.g replace + with %Concat etc.)

N.b. I would advise you to import this into a safe replacable environment. mport this code at your own risk - I cannot guarantee how (or if) it will import into your copy of PeopleSoft, and assume no liability for any problems that may arise from its use. It is based on a HCM 8.9 environment using tools 8.45.
