public class AppModule

extends java.lang.Object

AppModule holds the whole Venice system together. It has instances of both the ModelStorage and GUI.

AppModule can be constructed in two ways. Either in application mode or in applet mode. When it is constructed in applet mode, it will resrict its functionality and tell its subsystems do to the same. Applets most often will not be allowed to access the local file system, so commands involving that are left out. The applet mode is meant for viewing models, not editing them.
