Hello All,

For those of you that have ABF applications and have heard about or
are interested in modernizing them via TransForge, you can read about
the capabilities of the technology and CA's ABF to OpenROAD
Transformation services in the Advantage OpenROAD 4.1 SP2
documentation set. These documents were recently added to the CA
support site and are available at:

http://support.ca.com/techbases/ingr...gres_docs.html

I would recommend reading the Transformation Reference Guide as is has
a fairly detailed review of the capabilities of TransForge and the
architecture of the transformed OpenROAD application.

Before you make a decision on which product to use you might want to
check out CA Transforge - which is supposed to convert ABF code to
OpenRoad code. Cost of transforge depends on the lines of code to
convert - i'm aware of a company called EspritIT in Sydney Australia
that have used Transforge and there thoughts on the product are worth
a listen to. You can contact them via CA Australia or Andrew Pilcher
CA New Zealand.

best of luck

Hello,

I'd like to know what is better for GUI development against ingres db:
VisualBasic under .net or OpenRoad 4.1


I would personly recommend C# (or VB.Net - they are after all just syntatic
sugar for the CLR to suck on, which means just choose the language type of
your choice [Delphi.Net is now released, if you prefer pascal syntax, and
maybe CA will even release OpenRoad.Net]).

As I listed in an unrelated thread - SOME of the reasons I like .Net ...


- Microsoft version has the best IDE I have ever come across (Visual
Studio.Net).

- Almost no difference between forms based and internet based development.

- MS version totally automates many features, including web services.


- Enables very fast development times, thus reducing development costs.

- It can run on any platform (open source version -
http://www.go-mono.com/).

- .Net/C# are open standards (ECMA and ISO -
http://msdn.microsoft.com/net/ecma/).

- Is object orientated (Software reusability is very important to me - I
hate reinventing the wheel).

- Standards are backed by a variety of major software houses and computer
companies.

- Many opensource development efforts are under way
(http://sourceforge.net).

- If a new langauge becomes the vogue, it can be ported to .Net and previous
development will not be wasted.
