demonstrates how to create and play basic and sprite animations. It implements

all the standard classes required by any application using UI controls such

as an application, a document, an application UI and a view. </p> <p>The application

provides UI controls to create a sprite animation and a basic client-side

animation. It also provides UI controls to control the behavior

of an animation such as, start, stop, pause, resume and move. </p> <p>The

application plays an animated <filepath>.gif</filepath> file both as a basic

client-side animation and a server-side sprite animation. It performs the

following tasks in the order they are listed to create the basic and sprite

animations: </p> <ol id="GUID-5860A908-A761-5431-AB6E-EEBE4D7CF0FE-GENID-1-10-1-6-1-1-4-1-9-1-3-1-2-1-5">
