Beach, CA — September 28th, 2004 —
IBM has announced the first release of the modern
Informix 4GL solution with the availability of IBM
WebSphere Studio Application Developer and IBM WebSphere
Studio Site Developer, version 5.1.2. The Informix
4GL - WebSphere Studio integration is IBM's strategic
Informix 4GL modernization strategy and it is based
on valuable feedback by the International Informix
User Group (IIUG).
Informix 4GL - EGL Integration WebSphere Studio
5.1.2 products include important Informix 4GL
constructs in a new implementation of IBM's EGL,
a proven, high-level 4GL language that Informix
4GL developers, unfamiliar with Java, can use
to quickly build data-driven Web applications
and business logic. Informix 4GL developers can
write and debug their applications in EGL and
WebSphere Studio generates the Java code for them.
Used in conjunction with JavaServer Faces (JSF),
EGL allows Informix 4GL developers to build dynamic
Web applications without having to learn the Java
language.
This new capability opens up Java development
to a new class of Informix 4GL developers that
can apply their business domain expertise and
use their skills as procedural developers to quickly
build dynamic Web applications with IBM databases.
The integration of the remaining Informix 4GL
constructs will be complete in the WebSphere Studio
6.0 time-frame in Q4 2004, when Informix 4GL-style
character user interface functionality, as well
as a conversion utility will be made available
to help achieve significant conversion from Informix
4GL to WebSphere Studio EGL. Conversion will allow
field-tested Informix 4GL business logic to be
used in the next generation of EGL applications.
