Imagine you have a NB Platform application and you would like to use that application via some other app that you've created. In essence, how can you learn how to start an application if you don't want to use the NB Platform or IDE.

I am using SQLite for the unit testing and might use it as a database for local development/staging. The System.Data.SQLite has basically 2 versions: x86 and x64. Correct one should be used for the specific platform. I have 64 bit Win7, other guys in the team might use 32-bit OSs. The server's platform is not known at this stage. If I...
