Skyline开发⼊门（C#）⼀、帮助⽂档介绍安装好skyline pro后，在安装⽬录下可以找到开发帮助⽂档ProgrammersGuide.chm我是把软件安装在Ｃ盘，C:\Program Files\Skyline\TerraExplorer Pro\Help。

帮助⽂档共有七个章节，skylin桌⾯开发主要是⽤到第三章和第四章。

1、TerraExplorer CoClass InterfacesTerraExplorerClass类是创建TerraExplorer组件类的⼊⼝，TerraExplorer CoClass Interfaces中所有的接⼝都实现了TerraExplorerClass类。

以获得IInformationTree5对象为例，代码如下：TerraExplorer　terraExplorer = new TerraExplorerClass();IInformationTree5　iInformationTree5 = new TerraExplorerClass();以上两⾏代码，就可以得到iInformationTree5实例了，就可以调⽤iInformationTree5的⽅法。

其他组件类接⼝的使⽤⽅法都是类似的。

TerraExplorerClass除了能实现组件类接⼝，也能直接实例化。

TerraExplorerClass　terraExplorerClass = new TerraExplorerClass();terraExplorerClass对象提供了丰富的⽅法，最常⽤的就是Invoke⽅法了，这个⽅法实际上是和IMenu接⼝的Invoke⽅法是⼀样的，只要传⼊菜单命令ＩＤ，就可以调⽤skyline已经封装好的很多功能了，菜单命令可以参考开发帮助IMenu接⼝的介绍。

2、ITerraExplorerObject5 Interfaces主要是介绍创建TerraExplorer各种对象的接⼝。

ⅠMIS Solution for the Agency and its Implementation Process1.1 MIS SolutionAccording to the description, Outsourcing Programmers System is more appropriate for a Real Estate Agency.Under the system, the Agency will transfer most responsibility to the outsider which is more professional, such as system development and computer operation. Typically, it should negotiate a development price, provide detailed specifications, and the outsourcer hires workers and develops systemsThe primary advantage of this system is that Outsourcing Programmers System can reduce the workload and the entire processes will be in a professional and efficient way.1.2 Implementation ProcessA Real Estate Agency needs a systems development life cycle (SDLC) to explain its implementation process, which is a process of establishing computer system. SDLC can overcome the problems that arise with large projects that involve many users and require thousands of hours of development by multiple analysts and programmers. Below is Systems development life cycle of the Agency.Figure 1 Systems development life cycle of the AgencyOn the basis of this figure, six stages of the Agency can be given:1.Feasibility and PlanningA feasibility study is a quick examination of the problems, goals and expected costs of the systems. The objective is to determine whether the problem can reasonably be solved.Assess the feasibility of the existing system from the economic and technical aspects. In economic aspect, through the analysis of cost/benefit, determine when the application can recover the cost. In technical aspect, through the identification of each alternative technology, determine whether build the application or not.2.Systems AnalysisThis stage is to determine how the existing system works and where the problems are located, and break the system into pieces. Data flow diagrams are a common methodto display that is determined during this stage.3.Systems DesignDuring this stage, Outsourcing Programmers System is typically designed on paper. The objective of this stage is to describe it as a collection of modules or subsystems.4.Systems ImplementationThis stage involves installation and changeover from the existing system to Outsourcing Programmers System, including training users and making adjustments to the system. A crucial stage in implementation is final testing.In this stage, almost every employee is trained in a professional way to understand the new system, in order to make sure it is operated in a right way.5.Software MaintenanceAfter hardware’s upgrade and users’changes, errors may exist in the system. Then there are many jobs of overseeing and making these modifications.Every day the new system should be monitored and modified increasingly by the specialists in this Agency.6.EvaluationThe last stage is to evaluate the resulting system, it is important to assess the effectiveness of the particular development process.Evaluate whether the new system can bring benefits for the Agency and is indeed effective.Strengths and Weaknesses of SDLC:ⅡTraining Requirements to support MISThe Agency should train its employees from four aspects below:1.Software SupportTrain the abilities of help desk operator, making them understand how to use systems to inquire about the conditions of each house for people who what to buy or know the house.And train the abilities of PC technical support, in order to provide technical support for the development of house availability software.work SupportTrain managers’abilities of building networks that can correct for failures and bottlenecks, in order to let the entire agency network be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.And train network analyst’s ability that it has specialized skills to configure the router, monitor the connection and keep up with current advisories, in order to make the network in security.3.Data and Database AdministrationTrain administrator’s ability that it maintains the Agency’s database, monitor performance of the database management system.And train database analyst solve day-to-day problems which arise with its house-listing database4.Expert System SupportBy rules and a lot of problems provided by customers about house are summarized by employees for many years, an expert system of the Agency is established. Train employees understand the system and gain the experience, so that they can solve any questions and reach s conclusion, because it has provisions for explaining customer’s answers.ⅢMIS Data of the Agency and Use of these Data1.NormalizationAgent (AgentID, Name, Address, Sex, Social security number, Real estate license number)House (House listing number, Owner’s name, Location, Listing date, Price, Style) Achievements (AgentID, House listing number, Achievement)2.Table DesignFigure 2 Agent DesignFigure 3 House DesignFigure 4 Achievements Design3.RelationshipFigure 5 Relationships between Agent, House and Achievements 4.Test DataFigure 5 Test Data of AgentFigure 6 Test Data of HouseFigure 7 Test Data of AchievementsQuestion: Which owner’s house is sale by an agent on his or her own effort?Figure 8 QueryFigure 9 Report of achievements of some owners’ houses。

Chapter 2
2.1 Define in your own words the following terms: agent, agent function, agent program, rationality, reflex agent, model-based agent, goal-based agent, utility-based agent, learning agent. The following are just some of the many possible definitions that can be written:
1.11 “surely computers cannot be intelligent-they can do only what their programmers tell them.” Is the latter statement true, and does it imply the former? This depends on your definition of “intelligent” and “tell.” In one sense computers only do what the programmers command them to do, but in another sense what the programmers consciously tells the computer to do often has very little to do with what the computer actually does. Anyone who has written a program with an ornery bug knows this, as does anyone who has written a successful machine learning program. So in one sense Samuel “told” the computer “learn to play checkers better than I do, and then play that way,” but in another sense he told the computer “follow this learning algorithm” and it learned to play. So we’re left in the situation where you may or may not consider learning to play checkers to be s sign of intelligence (or you may think that learning to play in the right way requires intelligence, but not in this way), and you may think the intelligence resides in the programmer or in the computer
