What is CA-Visual Objects?
CA-Visual Objects is an object-oriented Windows-based applications development environment with repository-based source management and an incremental compiler. It includes interfaces to many major database engines via the ODBC (Open DataBase Connectivity?) standard. The compiler itself supports a hybrid of xBase and C/C++ techniques; it will, for example, generate straight machine code instead of pseudo-code if you supply proper typing information or if it can figure this out from context. CA-Visual Objects is the spiritual descendant of Nantucket’s old “Aspen” project.
