PowerBuilder is an integrated development environment (IDE) used to create applications. PowerBuilder 12.5 has good integration with the Microsoft. In fact, the vendor will tell you that “PowerBuilder IS .NET”. Though originally designed to compete with Microsoft developed IDE’s (primarily Visual Studio), the PowerBuilder .NET integration was created to allow continuity for the PowerBuilder project and to take advantage of the .NET platform that many developers are now using to create business critical applications. PowerBuilder can be thought of as a .NET language, with full Common Type System (CTS) language support. The PowerBuilder 12.5 for .NET IDE is preferred by many application developers as it is a fast, cost-effective and easy application development software. The typical PowerBuilder business application is high performance and data driven. Technology used in the PowerBuilder .NET integration is also unique in that it continuously evolves to accommodate the latest software advances on the Microsoft platform and, of course, the business needs of the users. This ability to keep up with advances in VUI (Visual User Interface) advances as well as functionality creates valuable competitive advantage for businesses that use the PowerBuilder for .NET platform. One of the reasons the PowerBuilder to .NET platform is favoured as rapid application development software by some developers is its speed and simplicity. This development speed is attributed to the graphical software construction tools and the original PowerBuilder “‘Data Window”’ technology. This function, brought forward to Powerbuilder 12 from the older PowerBuilder versions allows developers to use minimal coding to create data rich applications. Thanks to DataWindow, developers using PowerBuilder for the .NET environment may only need to write...
