Rapid Application Development for the Enterprise

itvidya_pr's picture

Rapid application development tools are great. Visual Basic, Delphi, etc. are great at cutting development time for complex applications through their use of reusable components.

Reusable components (I will refer to them as "controls" from here on) are simply pre-built pieces of programming code designed to perform a specific function. When designing an application in a visual environment, controls can be quickly dropped into the design, and modified to fit the task at hand. Most of the controls you'll find are designed to handle such tasks as pushbuttons, menus, text labels, and so forth. As a developer, you only need to write code to "glue" them into your application, and develop the interactions between controls.

Google may not be releasing an open-source operating system or a desktop suite, but the company is promoting, supporting and using open-source software.
The rumors never stop.

Google Inc. and Sun Microsystems Inc. will release a Web-based StarOffice desktop suite. Google will soon announce a new operating system.

The truth isnt anything as dramatic, but it does show a company that not only supports open source, but relies on it every day to keep the best-known search engine and allied businesses running.

Java myths - fact versus fiction

imran's picture

There are so many myths about Java. This month, I'll look at some of the more persistent ones, and try to dispel any doubt.

Fiction :
Applets can read your hard-drive, and delete files

Fact :
Any attempt by an applet to access local files will throw a SecurityException. If uncaught, the applet will crash, but no file access will occur.

The only exception to this rule is for digitally signed applets, which may be granted additional privileges. Your browser will display a dialog box, asking you if you want to accept the identity of the applet author. Choose no if unsure, and you'll always be safe.

Wait! Don't buy Windows Vista!

Mike Elgan said "This article is for those of you who are about to download or purchase Windows Vista and install it on a PC. I'm here to talk you out of it. Just say no to LeBron James and Windows Vista -- for now. Here's why."

The title looked too blunt. But the message was clear about the state of Vista amidst the issues surrounding EU anti-trust ruling on Windows.

This review at Computer World took me through a whole new thought! In the war between Windows and Linux will the Mac emerge as a safe choice for the end users on Desktop?

Linux groups merging, finally!!

Finally, two Linux groups merging to offer a better unified face to real competition!

I remembered Scott McNealy's words during Sun Developer Conference back in 2002 in Bangalore. His words were "Do not develop for any OS, not even for Solaris, develop on Java so that your investment is safe on any OS" Only visionaries dare to say this at the cost of their own business interest (Solaris).
