CenterView launches Choreo for Visual Basic.INDIAN WELLS Indian Wells may refer to:
Choreo extends Microsoft Visual Basic with a component-based toolset that enables developers for the first time to use industry-standard tools to develop client/server applications. With Choreo, developers can now leverage their expertise in Visual Basic to rapidly and easily create fully scalable client/server applications. Choreo is being demonstrated at the Demo '95 conference in Indian Wells, Feb. 6 - 8. Choreo for Visual Basic, now shipping for $595, is a component-based toolset that features an intuitive drag-and-drop user interface and object-oriented data access engine. Together they provide an unprecedented combination of ease of use and high-performance. Choreo's data access engine dramatically reduces development time by automating the broad range of data management functions that typically constitute up to 40% of client/server development efforts. "More and more companies are finding that no one development tool provides all the features they require and are increasingly turning to component-based tools as a way to meet their specific requirements," said Mark Douglas Mark William Douglas (b. 20 October, 1968 in Nelson, New Zealand) is an international cricketer. He played six one-day internationals and no Tests for New Zealand. He also played for Nelson in the Hawke Cup. , president and founder of CenterView Software Inc. "Choreo for Visual Basic takes the benefits of component-based tools to a new level, extending them to the client/server world for the first time. With Choreo, companies can now rapidly develop full-scale client/server applications using industry-standard, component-based tools." Choreo Features Choreo for Visual Basic is the flagship product A primary product of a company, which is typically why the company was founded and/or what made it well known. For example, MS-DOS, Windows and the Microsoft Office suite have been flagship products of Microsoft. CorelDRAW is a flagship product of Corel Corporation. in CenterView's family of Choreo component-based, visual client/server development toolsets. Each Choreo toolset consists of three key components: the DataDirector, DataLink Manager, and DataLink Inspector. At the heart of Choreo is the DataDirector, a high-performance, object-oriented, SQL SQL in full Structured Query Language. Computer programming language used for retrieving records or parts of records in databases and performing various calculations before displaying the results. data access engine that insulates developers from the inherent complexities of working with client/server databases. Through the DataDirector, Choreo automatically manages master-detail and foreign key synchronization across any number of fields and windows within an application. As a result, programmers can create multiple-window applications without time-consuming, manual processes such as linking visual controls or writing complex messaging code. Choreo's DataDirector automatically queries data and populates all linked controls, and it creates query, insert, and delete commands in run-time applications, according to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. the links and properties that the developer sets at design time. Additionally, Choreo's open application programming interface (API) allows programmers to modify properties or to control transactions in the data access engine at run time. The Choreo DataLink Manager is the database equivalent of the Visual Basic toolbox and the primary interface for working with Choreo. Its intuitive drag-and-drop user interface allows developers to create DataLinks that connect user-interface objects with database columns in order to define how data is accessed and managed in an application. At run time, the dynamic SQL See embedded SQL. engine displays the appropriate user interface object in the application based on the information in a DataLink. The DataLink Inspector complements the DataLink Manager, providing an interface for setting previously complex database properties such as sorting, conditions, and default values. Choreo allows developers to create database-independent applications. Using Choreo, a programmer can build an application against one type of database and then deploy it against others. The Choreo-based application automatically supports any other databases selected by the developer without changing or recompiling a single line of code. Choreo intelligently manages database connections, transactions, cursors, caching, and security. It also supports all types of database commands including queries, inserts, updates, deletes, and joins.
