Interface GlobalProvider

All Superinterfaces:

ADEPT2Service

public interface GlobalProvider
extends ADEPT2Service

A GlobalProvider allows for central management of configurations and additional resources like icons and third party libraries. This reduces the amount of data transfered throughout the system, for instance icons do not need to be part of process templates.
