OOFILE is a cross-platform OODBMS framework featuring the unique concept of replaceable backends, with the OODBMS features mapped through to your choice of database engine. Personal OOFILE provides a simple persistent RAM backend and a dBase III® and dBase IV®-compatible backend. These backends are also included in OOFILE Professional which uses Faircom's c-tree Plus as the primary backend. For existing c-tree users, OOFILE adds many features.
OOFILE conforms partly to the ODMG-93 specification but extends it considerably to allow a c++ program to fully manage a database, and using c++ as the query language.
OOFILE is closely integrated with AppMaker to provide complete application generation on the Macintosh. Simply draw your screens, name your fields and generate a full database application in C++.
OOFILE is royalty-free for single-user and shared-file multi-user development. The general restriction is against simply re-packaging our product. For more details, including relevant c-tree conditions, please see our license statement.
