Although the PFC provide a wide range of capabilities, it can be a very tedious task to ‘strip out’ a specific piece of functionality for use in an ‘non PFC’ application. Here are the objects and modifications you need to do to strip out the File Service, Window Resize Service, and the String Service.<\/p>\n
