Re: Is RPG available on any other platform ?

["Steve Landess" <steve_landess@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have ASNA's Visual RPG (AVR) 4.0 for Windows.

I think AVR is an outstanding product for standalone, client/server, and web
development.  They are currently working on a version that will be
.NET-compliant.

1) The IDE (Integrated Development Environment) looks/works almost exactly
like that for VB6/Visual Studio.  However, because of its built-in database
handling (using RPG-like file operation codes), IMO it is _much_ more
productive than using a product like VB6 with ODBC or OLE DB.

2) It comes with an iSeries-like database (Acceler8DB) for developing
standalone applications under Windows.

3) It has the ability to access the iSeries database using RPG file
operation codes with ASNA's DataGate/400 database engine (sold separately).

4) It can also perform iSeries-like RPG access to SQL Server 2000 databases
(using CHAIN, SETLL, etc.) with DataGate for SQL Server (sold separately).

5) It can also perform database access to databases such as Oracle using OLE
DB.
