Is CASL a good environment for developing a db application?
Absolutely. CASL has an easy db file object (dbfile), which allows a db record to be defined by binding field variables to a db record. A single get_fields/put_fields command is used to read/write all bound field variables with single command. db files are automatically sorted by key field when new records are added (with insert command), or during HotSync with CASL Conduit. There are search and seek commands for random access, and setting the db file bookmark. Db operations are very fast in CASL. There’s a table-like grid object with cells, which can be populated with a label, text, button, checkbox, or dropdown object. The grid columns can be bound to a db file object field or an array for auto-filling without writing any code. A single grid can be bound to multiple db file objects. The cell object’s traditional invoker functions are available for programming. You can use the row_loaded invoker function to load cells, which might be calculated values. You can use the row_unloaded eve
