The repository maintains dependency relationships among
all the assets it manages. LiveCycle uses these dependency relationships
to assemble all the necessary assets into a LiveCycle application.
The application manager supports packaging the assets that are
part of a LiveCycle application into a LiveCycle archive file. The
archive file facilitates the transfer of an application from development
to staging to production.
When a LiveCycle application is deployed, all the assets within
it are also deployed. The process of deploying some of those assets
results in services being registered in the service registry, which
can be invoked by the Invocation framework.
For example, when a process is deployed, a service entry is created
in the service registry that allows the process to be invoked as
a service. If the service is published, a WSDL file is created and
added to the service registry, along with the necessary metadata
that the LiveCycle SDK framework uses to invoke the service.
