"What year is this you referring to? With respect to PowerBuilder? Observed to outperform many of other competing application? Damnshit! I spend almost entire of my night to compare this to LINQ which Visual Studio introduced me. It doesn’t even contain single/tiny features that it replaces the new Visual Studio 2008, how much more in upcoming Visual Studio 2010."
Thanks for the research time. Powerscript has long before included embedding SQL statements in the script. You can do SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE etc. you can also wrap database functions or single-value-return stored procedures. LINQ only added many features to what was there before its conception. Well, I am not surprised, this is not the only time Microsoft "borrow ideas".
"The datawindow you mentioned here is an oldschool style. I agree that it someway it outperforms the features of Visual Studio way back a decade of years ago, but if you are referring as of this year. Man, get Visual Studio and start working with LINQ, new features of DataBinding, Database Connectivity not only across the network but thru public sites, and pretty more to talk about."
Whoa, this will be a case of an old man beating a young man. Try this:
Datawindow.Net and see how it compares.
"Now let me ask you one thing, when was the last time these native DB’s (Company) you mentioned released new supports for PowerBuilder Developers?"
I'm using Powerbuilder 10.5 right now:
These are the native support:
