Mobile Data Object - ResultSet Field Selection

When a field selector function is enabled for a class handler, the option to select fields for the GET method to populate is available. The class handler is designed to be mobile application-neutral. It can typically supply more data than the mobile application needs. Therefore, in order to preserve system performance, you can customize field usage settings to only retrieve required data for the mobile application. This ability prevents the need to develop a new class handler for each mobile application.
