Posted in 2003
To the database application development community; Aubit project is announcing the beginning of Aubit 4GL compiler version 0.5 release cycle. After over 2 years in SourceForge family, and over 8000 CVS commits, Aubit 4GL compiler is about to enter the release 0.5 cycle, which will see change in official development status from "Development - Beta" to "Production - Stable". In this 2 years, we created a functionally rich 4GL development environment, including integration of GUI, PDF, ESQL/C, P-code, ACE, XML-RPC and many other industry-standard technologies. Currently, Aubit 4GL compiler can successfully compile and run over 98% of IBM/Informix-4GL(TM) programs. Our goal is to get this compatibility estimate to 99.9% before version 0.5 is released. We are hoping to be able to simultaneously announce first large scale production environment using Aubit 4GL compiler in commercial environment, utilizing PostgreSQL OpenSource RDBMS. TO ACHIEVE THIS GOAL, WE ARE SOLICITING PARTICIPATION AND HELP FORM DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY, BOTH INDIVIDUALS AND ORGANIZATIONS; WE ***NEED*** YOUR BUG REPORTS. If you want production-ready, free, OpenSource 4GL compiler alternative to commercial 4GL product, and if you are looking for the ultimate future-proofing for your investment in 4GL applications, now is the good time to join us. Please compile your 4GL applications using Aubit compiler, and report any problems to be fixed to Aubit development team. We are also looking for documentation writes, unit test writers, and GTK+ developers.
