Corda Adds New .NET Embedder and .NET Component to PopChart; Facilitates Developing PopChart Charts and Graphs for .NET Web Services.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers LINDON, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 13, 2002 Corda Technologies Inc., a Lindon-based developer of dynamic, interactive, Web-based charting and graphing solutions, today announced the addition of a .NET embedder and a .NET component to facilitate the creation of dynamic PopChart charts and graphs for the .NET environment. The new .NET features in PopChart enhance the developer's ability to create charts and graphs for the rapidly emerging Web services (1) Loosely, any online service delivered over the Web. Such usage appears in articles from non-technical sources, but not in IT-oriented publications, because definition #2 below describes the correct use of the term. market. Using PopChart's .NET embedder, developers can create and send dynamic charts and graphs to the Web with just a few lines of code The statements and instructions that a programmer writes when creating a program. One line of this "source code" may generate one machine instruction or several depending on the programming language. A line of code in assembly language is typically turned into one machine instruction. . Corda also provides a Web service that allows developers to test their .NET output on the Corda Web site. This enables the developers to ensure that the charts and graphs that they create look and perform as expected before they put them into a production environment. The .NET component can be easily installed into Microsoft's Visual Studio .NET A suite of programming languages and development tools from Microsoft that supports the .NET environment. Upon its introduction in 2001, it included Visual C# and .NET versions of Visual Basic and Visual C++. See .NET. tool set and allows developers to extend the functionality of the .NET embedder. Corda's .NET component provides a graphical component to show the graph as it is developed. The .NET component also provides an example of how to use the .NET embedder. Neal Williams, chief executive officer of Corda, said, "We see Web services expanding rapidly and should be the principle means of deployment for new application solutions within the next couple of years. In order to support that expansion, we now provide developers with powerful new tools to allow them to take full advantage of PopChart's Web services capabilities." .NET is the name that Microsoft Corp. uses to identify its Web services strategy. This strategy includes a method of development for the Web and a concept whereby customers access the Web to obtain data, goods and services In economics, economic output is divided into physical goods and intangible services. Consumption of goods and services is assumed to produce utility (unless the "good" is a "bad"). It is often used when referring to a Goods and Services Tax. . The concept has received wide attention and is currently being implemented by Microsoft. The .NET features join PopChart's list of current attributes like Flash and SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) A vector graphics format from the W3C for the Web that is expressed in XML. Introduced in 2001, SVG was designed to become the standard vector format just as GIFs and JPEGs have become the standard bitmaps for the Web. images that have drilldown and popup information to assist in navigating through data. Dynamic Graphs can be combined to form Decision Dashboards(TM). Wireless and handheld devices are supported with Flash or WBMP (Wireless BMP) A graphic file format for WAP-enabled wireless phones. The format was designed to support multiple image types, but was introduced with only one: a Type "0" uncompressed monochrome bitmap. See WAP. WBMP - wireless bitmap output. PopChart works with any database and any browser, and with Best Image Fallback fall·back n. 1. a. Something to which one can resort or retreat. b. A retreat. 2.
