From I-SQL to GUI
A user with a legacy I-SQL application (Perform forms, ACE reports) on Windows clients asked whether, besides moving to D4GL, there were tools or a 'wrapper' to convert the forms to a GUI while reusing existing code. The only suggestion was a utility reportedly written by Billy Wheeler that converts Perform forms largely automatically to 4GL (posted by a QueriX representative, along with a plug for their 4GL/GUI products). The rest of the thread is a mix-up with another poster asking for an HP-UX evaluation copy. No concrete resolution is recorded.

Hi, We have an application based on the I-SQL forms and reports (Perform, Ace). We are looking for tools to convert the forms to something GUI. The clients are MS-Windows PC's. I'm aware of the D4GL products that would be a possible migration path. Are there alternatives, permitting to keep some of the written codes, or some kind of 'wrapper' available for the I-SQL ? Thanks, Luc Chatelain

Maybe if you can get hold of that utility the job becomes much easier. -- Compliments of QueriX -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- QueriX 4GL Compilers are Informix 4GL Compatible, and Connection to other RDBMS such as Oracle.
