ControlContext :: processAction - Execute standard action

Standard actions are those, which are defined as actions (ADM_Action) in an application. Standard actions have to be stored as ADM_Action in the user's database or in the resource database. Since actions are looked for in the application database before searching in the resource database, users may redefine actions in the application database.

The action passed in sAction is searched as ADM_Action and executed in the context of the current control, when being found. The action generates an GEV_Process event before starting and terminates with an GEV_Processed event, which might be overloaded in the application context in order to prepare and terminate the action properly.
