- There are a number of packages. Two of the best I've seen are:
-
- Uniface This is a good product that also has the benefit of working
- with almost any database, Windows, X (Motif and OpenLook),
- Unix, VMS (yuck :-), Client/Server from Windows to Unix or
- VMS.
- PowerBuilder A good product that only works in the Windows environment
- either with local DBs or Client/Server.
-
- Some others include (passed on without comment):
- Unify
- Focus
- Ally
- JAM
- SQL*Windows
-
- If you are working in an environment of heterogenous presentation devices
- or with multiple databases (especially in one application), I think Uniface
- would be the best product.
