PowerBuilder
<tool, database> A {graphical user interface} development tool
from {Powersoft} for developing {client-server} {database}
{applications}. It runs under {MS-DOS}(?) and {Microsoft
Windows}. There are also versions for {Microsoft Windows},
{Windows NT}, {Macintosh}, and {Unix}.
Applications can be built by creating {windows}, controls
(such as {listboxes} and {buttons}), and {menus} within the
PowerBuilder development environment. The language used to
program PowerBuilder, {PowerScript}, is loosely based on
{BASIC}.
PowerBuilder supports programming on many database backends
including {Sybase} and {Oracle}. It also has added support
for {ODBC} database drivers. PowerBuilder also comes with a
built-in database backend ({WATCOM} {SQL} 32-bit {relational
database}).
