Jovis¿ is a database engine for REALbasic¿. It's a great solution for storing and retrieving information that is displayed from your REALbasic applications.
The enclosed 30 day demo will introduce you to the Jovis database engine and its many powerful features. We have created a "WorkShop" area within the demo that lets you experiment with a sample database called "DASCO Database". Interactive examples demonstrate various capabilities as they are being shown.
You can create, both single-user and client/server database applications using Jovis and REALbasic. With Jovis, data is kept in data files external to your application. You include the "calls" that manage and update these files in your code.
With Jovis you can store and retrieve information as records using relational tables, or as text blocks or strings. You can also store and retrieve 'Pict's, 'snd ', and 'Blob's (Binary Large OBjects). Fields and records have no length requirements, so you never have to worry about your information being truncated. Most importantly, Jovis gives you the ability to keep your data separate from your user interface.
The amount of data you can keep in a Jovis data file is limited only by hardware configurations. You can store thousands of records, even hundreds of thousands of records! Jovis lets you build your database to fit the way YOU need information. You can search relational tables using traditional criteria, such as greater than or less than operators, etc., or by accessing indexes directly. The uses for Jovis are unlimited, and they are always simple and easy to implement.
We have included the REALbasic project file for the demo so that you can see how things were put together. Some of the required pieces for building an application have not been included, so you won't actually be able to build the demo. Nonetheless, you can get a good idea of how quick and easy Jovis is to use.
