When Character Mode
Applications Count!
DataFlex® 3.2 is an advanced
object-oriented 4GL designed for developing database applications. The
integration of a proven framework enables you to quickly build reliable,
high performance business applications. The DataFlex framework is the
same framework used in
Visual DataFlex,
providing a consistent business rules environment for Web, Windows, and
character mode solutions.
DataFlex is also a completely portable development environment.
Character mode applications can be developed for Windows, Linux and all
leading UNIX systems. Code can be easily ported to any supported
environment, typically with nothing more than a recompilation of the
source code.
DataFlex 3.2 has plenty to offer, for both current DataFlex developers,
and for anyone seeking a transportable, state-of-the-art system for
building mission critical business applications.
DataFlex 3.2 Supported
Environments
Linux
DataFlex 3.2 for Linux leverages the power of the Linux OS with the
advantages of Intel-based server hardware platforms to offer developers
a true high-performance, low cost option to the more expensive Unix
servers. Visit the
DataFlex 3.2 for Linux page for
detailed information about how DataFlex 3.2 for Linux can lower your "Total Cost
of Ownership"
and improve application performance.
UNIX
For the most demanding IT environments, power-users have long relied on
the stability and performance of DataFlex software running on Unix
platforms. Supported systems include SCO UNIX, UnixWare, IBM AIX, HP/UX,
and Sun Microsystems Solaris.
Windows Console Mode
DataFlex 3.2 supports character mode application development for Windows
Console Mode and MS-DOS environments. Supported environments under
Windows Console Mode include Win98SE, WinNT and Win2000.
The Major Benefits of DataFlex 3.2
High Performance Transactional Database
DataFlex's database is well known for speed, reliability and ease of
administration. Hundreds of on-line users and millions of records are no
challenge for this well proven DBMS.
"Dual Mode" Product
While all of the considerable benefits of object oriented programming
are available in DataFlex 3.2, all of the procedural programming
features of revision 2.3b and many new procedural and database features
are incorporated in 3.2 too! It's up to you to choose whether you use a
procedural or an object oriented development style. To run a program
compiled with any revision prior to 3.2, you must first recompile the
program with the DataFlex 2.3 compiler. DataFlex 2.3b through to 3.1x
source files are compatible with 3.2 and should compile without any
problems. Please refer to
White Paper
below for further details.
Extended Support for Large Scale Applications
DataFlex 3.2 supports up to 4095 databases per application with the
extended filelist specification.
Client/Server Options
DataFlex 3.2 supports the use of foreign database drivers under Windows
Console Mode, Linux and most of the major UNIX environments. For UNIX
environments, drivers are available from Data Access Worldwide for the
IBM DB2 Universal Database. Third Party vendors support other client/
server options.
Increased Application
Speed
 |
DataFlex 3.2 automatically sets files
which do not participate in Save and Delete operations to Read Only.
This significantly improves data throughput and network performance in
large multi-user systems.
|
|
DataFlex 3.2 uses new, intelligent
searching technology. This can provide a dramatic speed increase in
data-retrieval operations, such as report queries, batch processes and
the filling of selection list data.
|
Increased Data Integrity
Transaction Rollback for Increased Data
Reliability
Increased Programmer Productivity through fully Integrated DataFlex
Application Framework (DAF)
DAF is fully integrated into DataFlex 3.2's software and documentation.
DAF is Data Access Corporation's recommended approach for maximizing
developer productivity for building object-oriented applications.
Seamless migration through transportable application code
DataFlex 3.2 provides a scalable migration solution to preserve existing
investments in DataFlex 2.3, 3.0x, and 3.1x applications.
Upgrading to DataFlex 3.2 White Paper
This paper discusses the tasks involved in upgrading to DataFlex 3.2
from prior character-mode DataFlex revisions. One of the focus points of
the paper is troubleshooting; how to avoid future problems and how to
solve current ones. The paper also discusses issues such as improved
multi-user code checking and migrating to Linux and Unix platforms.

Extend the life cycle and improve the
performance of your valuable DataFlex applications by moving from your
aging Unix systems to a contemporary Linux/Intel platform.
Businesses migrating to Linux from Solaris, AIX, and HP Unix
environments can expect to benefit from lower-cost servers due to the
wide availability of commodity Intel hardware. Business case studies
continue to show that it is surprisingly easy and beneficial to switch
from Unix to Linux. Savings made possible in hardware costs are
compelling for many companies. The transition is relatively easy, given
the similarity of the programming languages used for the two operating
systems. Plus, many tools and solutions for Linux are available through
the open source community. |
