LANCASTER, PENNSYLVANIA - March 25, 1996. Target Development announces the 3.01 release of the RetrieverPalette for the Enterprise Objects Framework. The RetrieverPalette is a collection of objects that provides a simple interface for constructing and managing EOQualifiers. Using the palette, even complex, nested qualifiers can be built graphically in Interface Builder. The real power of the palette is in its ability to use UI objects for runtime query values. The palette supports connections to TextFields, PopUpLists, Buttons, NXBrowsers, NXTableViews, and EOControllers, allowing ad-hoc query panels to be instantly added into any EOF application. The palette can use any of these objects to supply it with query values at runtime. Further, the palette supports archiving of values from these UI objects, allowing queries constructed at runtime to be saved and retrieved from the file system. A date licensed version of the palette is available via ftp or directly from Target Development. Demo license keys should be obtained directly from Target Development. The product includes the palette, headers, libraries, technical documentation, and two demo applications. One of the demo applications includes a palettized FileWell object that is used to drag-and-drop qualifier representations to and from the application. Install scripts and EOModels are available for Sybase, Oracle, Informix, and QuickBase. The palette retails for $595.00 per developer seat. No runtime fees apply. Educational, site, and source licenses are also available. This product will be available for OpenStep in May, 1996. Please send us email if you are interested in beta testing the OpenStep product.
