There are a growing number of third-party vendors creating Obsydian class libraries and frameworks. These innovative organizations have recognized the demand for class libraries and have already introduced thousands of prebuilt components. Alcatraz is designed to capture, identify, and provide Obsydian users access to this rich resource.
Speed is only one of the many benefits realized by reusing existing components. Prebuilt components also come pretested; this ensures the components are of the highest quality. Finally, faster development and higher quality greatly reduce the overall cost of development.
We are proud to bring you information on class libraries delivered by the first participants to the Alcatraz program. Please take a moment to tour through this wealth of data, here you will find objects that will make your next application a success.
Azur Technology offers the ATOL class libraries. The libraries consist of more than 3000 reusable objects such as object browsers, combo boxes, wizards, and multimedia objects which you can immediately incorporate into your applications.
Chorus Software class libraries deliver a fast track to developing sophisticated applications within the Obsydian environment. Their comprehensive base classes consist of fully tested high produtivity components which extend the functionality of the Synon shipped OBASE objects. In addition, they also offer a complete security application framework ready for integration directly into Obsydian developed products.
Impact Standard Classes for Object-oriented Programming (SCOOP) are a collection of standard building blocks for application development. We have studied those areas where Obsydian application developers typically do repetitive work and have created abstract objects which can be inherited in Obsydian. SCOOP objects include several categories such as Base Construction Set, Advanced Construction Set, Business Object Libraries and Application Frameworks to dramatically reduce the amount of work required to create advanced business applications.
Phoenix BOTs products are specialized Obsydian objects organized into logical classes representing the common business objects in use by the majority of information systems. BOTs products provide the methods to be inherited and used by application developers in conjunction with their database structures. BOTs libraries provide the operational frameworks over which the using organization stretches its existing legacy information to provide working applications with greatly improved developer productivity.
ProSys Group offers FirstWave, a group of native Obsydian Abstract and Application class libraries that take full advantage of Obsydian Version 2 object engineering capabilities. The ProSys FirstWave class libraries facilitate the programmer's use of Obsydian by providing business object solutions and standards used in the development of application systems.
Soft Design HTML Class Library is a technology class library that will help developers rapidly bring data from a server to the Web. The class library can be used to create static HTML documents (like product catalogues) or to create cgi server modules to interact with the data on the appropiate server.
Entisa has been providing creative, technical solutions to clients requesting extensions to Obsydian. One such solution has satisfied developers thirst for a better and more complete way of documenting their Obsydian models:
Joining Alcatraz
Perhaps you too have developed robust Obsydian class libraries during the course of your development using Obsydian. These class libraries could prove extremely useful to other developers. The program will allow you to leverage your investment in these class libraries by promoting them on Alcatraz.
A class library is a collection of prebuilt abstract objects that are reusable to expedite the development of applications.
Obsydian comes with a core set of class libraries. These class libraries were developed through working partnerships with groups of customers and software vendors, blending together the very best technology skills and business knowledge. The result is a robust set of prebuilt, expandable objects which encapsulate the structure and behavior of real-life business applications. The Obsydian class libraries now offer over 500 objects for:
