0.24: What are application client modules? (brief description)

An application client module is a JAR (Java ARchive) file containing a client for accessing a Java application.

The J2EE (Java TM 2 Platform Enterprise Edition) Application Client and the Java Application Thin Client are supported by this product. Both clients provide first tier client support .

The Java Application Thin Client provides users a light weight, downloadable Java application runtime that is capable of interacting with enterprise beans. This client is designed to support those users who want a Java client application programming environment without the overhead of the J2EE platform on the client machine.
