Team Developer 2005.1 introduces many new benefits, including powerful
OOP-to-XML interfaces, enhanced Linux database support for MySQL and other
open source databases, and major enhancements to Report Builder, GUPTA’s
reporting solution. The new version of Report Builder, which can also be
purchased as a standalone reporting solution, provides organizations with
an easy to use dynamic reporting tool with open database connectivity. New
features in Report Builder include the ability to display and print
pictures and images stored in various supported databases in long, binary
columns.
“For fast, efficient development of rich-client business applications, IT
departments, VARs and ISVs should consider a cross-platform strategy that
includes not only Windows-based applications, but Linux-based applications
as well,” said Mark Driver, Research VP at Gartner. “A cross-platform
strategy ensures that organizations are leveraging best-of-breed
technologies to solve business problems and keeps them from becoming too
dependent on any one vendor. This strategy becomes increasingly beneficial
as mixed environments become more and more ubiquitous.”
XML has become the de-facto industry standard for data exchange between
software systems. The powerful and easy-to-use XML features in Team
Developer 2005.1 allow for quick and easy data import and export into Team
Developer applications, the ability to write SQL query results to XML, and
a new class library for full XML file manipulation.
“Team Developer 2005.1 builds on GUPTA’s mission to provide ISVs and VARs
with an alternative solution for developing secure, dynamic business
applications for both Windows and Linux operating systems,” said Chuck W.
Stevenson, GUPTA’s Chief Technology Officer. “It’s been GUPTA’s goal for
more than twenty years to continually provide organizations with tools that
improve their business. Our robust business applications and cross-platform
strategy not only improve profit margins and time to market, but create
tangible new business opportunities for our customers as well.”
GUPTA created Team Developer in 1990 as the first database 4GL RAD tool for
Windows. Originally developed for Windows, it is now available for both
Windows and Linux platforms, offering superior development speed and full
cross-platform support, providing customers with the opportunity to choose
with operating system they prefer.
