Priority contains a set of development tools specifically designed to support the system and help you, our partner, customize the software to the specific needs of your customers. These tools are written in advanced languages (C++ and SQL) and are based on object-oriented programming (OOP).
The tool set allows for high performance, convenient and easy operation of the system, and considerable flexibility in carrying out customizations based on user requirements.
The development tools include the following components:
- Table and column generator
- Form generator, including tools for designing painted screens (in a Windows environment only)
- Report generator
- Menu generator
- Procedure generator
- Interface generator to external databases
- A library of external compiled programs, fully integrated into the system
- SQL (Standard Query Language)
- Data dictionaries
- Debuggers and profilers
- ODBC connection to development tools such as Access, Excel, and Word.
- Support for private customization of graphic journal interfaces (including Gantt charts).
- Support for private development of new OLAP reports.
- A program that searches for files in a directory, using the beginning of the file name.
- Export interface generators, similar to the existing import interface generators for forms.
- Support for MCHOOSE-FIELD, which enables the selection of more than one value at a time.
- Support for multiple queries within the same CHOOSE-FIELD. The results of such a query are displayed in a unified manner.
- Support for FCHOOSE-FIELD: Similar to CHOOSE-FIELD, it enables multiple queries, but displays only the first successful query result.
The development tools are very much a part of the system. Your own developers can customize the software up to a certain level of complexity. Where more serious revisions or additions are required, you can order them from the Eshbel Development Team for an additional charge.
