| The AMBER programming environment has
evolved from a series of commercially proven products dating back to the eighties. By
stretching these tools and demanding more, many top-notch application programmers have
fuelled the evolution of both our transaction engine and the natural language interface.
Many techniques that we incorporated years ago were ahead of their time, anticipating the
currently accepted norms of object oriented programming with languages like MS Visual C++
with the Foundation Class Library.
AMBER started its commercial life in the European DOS arena in the mid eighties. Over 95,000 end-user licenses have been installed by around 500 smaller and medium size software- and systemhouses. They developed hundreds and hundreds of different commercial transactional applications in clinics and hospitals, warehousing, manufacturing, transportation, banking, health care, community services etc. etc. and of course the more down to earth administrative applications like payroll, bookkeeping and order entry systems. Productivity and flexibility with high performance on network, are the unique selling points of such applications. In the early nineties it was clear that we had to completely rewrite the WorkBench and port it to the newer GUI Window systems. It surely was not an easy task to change from interrupt driven -to message driven operating system world. But listening to AMBER CS++ developers it was worth the wait. Comfortably hidden from the overwhelming quantity of information and technical complexity associated with Windows world, AMBER CS++ programmers do not have to bother about system resources, memory allocation, pointing manipulation and other time consuming activities. They can fully concentrate on the application without being hindered by the Windows environment, benefitting from a true programmers world with full control of a rich graphical users interface. AMBER CS++ is available in a native 32 bit version for Windows 2000/2003/XP. |
