STRATEGY 7 to Provide Extended IBM Services
IBM Delivers First Release of the Modern Informix 4GL Solution - New capability opens up Java development to a new class of Informix 4GL developers who can apply their expertise and skills to quickly build dynamic Web applications with IBM databases
Newport 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.
