initialize

initialize() updating;

The initialize event of the Application class is the default event that is called by the application before the start-up form of the application is invoked if you do not define your own initialize event to perform any function that is common to all users of this application.

The initialize event is performed once for each user of the application.

If the event creates a form and does not subsequently unload it, the start-up form of the application is not invoked.

For non-GUI applications, this event method is replaced by the user-specified initialize method specified when the application is defined. (For details, see "Passing Parameters to Non-GUI Applications using jadclient", in Chapter 1 of the JADE Runtime Application Guide.)
