Version 7 of Albacore

Updated 2006-11-12 11:27:47 by lwv

Albacore is a visual application development environment for Microsoft Windows. It includes a visual window/script editor along with a thin client. The gui and supporting TCL code are stored in a RDBMS and activated via the thin client. An advanced application programmer interface with over one hundred functions is provided for easy database access, gui object interaction, etc.

By incorporating the entire application into a database system the benefits are enormous, i.e. single point administration, rapid deployment of bug fixes and enhancements, and easy delivery of the application.

This open product provides functionality that can be found in other products costing several hundred thousand dollars.

[I still don't get it. What kinds of Windows developers benefit from Albacore? Is it programmers in C#, or ...? I suspect the answer's implicit in the documentation somewhere, but I haven't yet found it.]


It uses Tcl 7.6 for all scripting...It uses StingRay's GUI toolkit (third party)...

I do know it is currently being upgraded to Tcl 8.3.4 and the documentation is being refreshed....Not sure if the newer version will be placed on sourceforge....
