Abstract
Techniques for facilitating the reuse of a browser-based thin client of a client-server application in a browser-independent context. These techniques may be used, for instance, to integrate the functionality of a browser-based thin client in a desktop-based, rich client infrastructure. In one set of embodiments, these techniques include determining one or more browser dependencies that require the thin client to operate within a web browser. For example, the thin client may depend on a web browser to handle application security, the loading/caching of client-side files, the receipt/passing of application parameters, and the like. These browser dependencies are then eliminated. As a result, the thin client can be subsequently reused without the presence of a web browser. In one set of embodiments, this process is performed by a conversion utility that automatically converts program code for the browser-based thin client into program code for a browser-independent client application.
