As a design tool, ADSA facilitates structured application planning at an early stage in the design process. When the basic application design has been resolved, the developer initiates an application compilation session and defines the application functions and responses (the application components) to the dictionary.
At any stage, the developer can query the dictionary as to the status of the design by using CA IDMS dictionary reports, CA OLQ, or IDD to access the definitions. Even if an application compilation session is suspended (that is, the application is not compiled), the dictionary still contains the component definitions and relationships defined up to this point.
