SBase4Pro formerly SuperBase to run on AmigaOne
« on: June 30, 2003, 10:24:52 AM »
SBase4Pro is recompiling from SasC to GCC. This will enabel us to address Power PC issues such as the AmigaOne.
Our newest version is 1.36 done in April 2000.
SBase4Pro is a multirelational database that is very powerful and flexible.
Some of our products made to work under SBase are Retail Escort and Video Escort.
Many improvements are being worked on  such as html output and locking of files plus much more.

Thats very good to know :-)

For the html output, is there any chance it could be one of the few programs that outputs standards compliant xhtml? Pretty Please?
Cheers,

Olly

Cool. I`ve got SB4 with all the huge manuals n stuff, and it seems very capable. A new version of this would be cool. Thats another thing we can cross off the list of required software.

This is excellent news. I have been using SBase4Pro for years. It is a very powerful database and unlimited in every way. In fact it is probably the most powerful database that I have ever used.

I am very happy that this app is still around, and elated that it will be available for the AmigaOne. Good news indeed!  :-)

I've got Retail Escort and Video Escort, and have used SBase4Pro for ages (well before that version). But I ended up buying Lotus Millennium a couple years ago and Lotus Approach just stomps the living daylights out of SBase - not to mention how well it integrates with the rest of the suite. Actually Lotus seems to be about as Amiga-like as you can get on Windows with productiveware {save for the places it uses those crap Windows requesters ; }

Part of the problem with SBase as it has always been behind in adding Amiga OS services such as screenmodes, graphics card support, and by the time it has gotten interface improvements that reflected the state of the OS, and taken advantage of newer features, it has again lost ground. And then there are the bugs (especially in the form designer), and the errors and gaps in documentation caused by incremental changes and sporadic feature creep. These changes over the past few versions have cleaned up some of the oddities of use though...

I haven't tried it on my Pegasos yet to see if it runs at the level it did on my Amiga, but one thing is for certain: porting to AOS4 is an excellent opportunity to establish consistency in its interface and its use, which will really make its potential more obvious and realizable.
