unsa nindot ilearn na programming language

It doesn't change the subject. The thread is talking about programming language, not about Power Scripting or whatsoever.

oh yes Dodie boy. Kinsa may mutuo nimo karong panahona? wala man kay credibility. Delusional.

[dodie]

Let's just say...... you only know Powerbuilder? <--- hahaha

You may lack flexibility in different languages in different situations.


You just tell new learners.... hey learn powerbuilder! right away. lols

[kamsky]

Im not even powerbuilder programmer dodie.

But tell me what do you know?

It's okay to tell that PB is not good for the learners, but telling something that is not accurate like this tools is not capable of xxx and that.

@uchihacirxe
What programming languages are you using now?

In order or use:

1. Powerbuilder ( Powescript Language )
2. Visual Studio ( C#, VB.NET, ASP.NET )
3. Adobe Flex ( ActionScript Language )

Speficy gyud nato language kay detalye ra ba kay ni si dodie boi

Yes we know the meaning RAD, it means RAPID APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT, rapid is rapid... it means fast.

Therefore RAD doesn't care about the small details in development.

Of course, RAD takes care of the small details of development. The only difference is that the developer wouldn't need to worry about those small details because RAD is taking care of it.

Example in Powerbuilder:

There's a patented control in Powerbuilder called Datawindow ( This actually is the main reason why Powerbuilder is so powerful in making client-server applications )

Quoting Wiki:

"The DataWindow offers a visual SQL painter which supports outer joins, unions and subquery operations. It can convert SQL to Visual representation and back, so the developer can use native SQL if desired. DataWindow updates are automatic—it produces the proper SQL at runtime based on the DBMS to which the user is currently connected. This feature saves the developer from a very tedious chore.
The DataWindow also has the built-in ability to both retrieve data and update data via Stored Procedures. The user picks the Stored Procedure from a visual list.
In fact, the Datawindow itself is so powerful, many PowerBuilder applications have no framework, or only use inheritance in a limited way, because it is not necessary."

"it produces the proper SQL at runtime based on the DBMS to which the user is currently connected" - Wow talk about convenience. This is an example of the small things you are talking about.

This is how you command an update in powerbuilder:
dw_1.accepttext()
dw_1.update()

or you can do EMBEDDED SQL: ( sql within the script )

UPDATE master
SET description = 25
WHERE itemcode = 12345;

COMMIT using SQLCA;

How many times do I have to tell you.... POWERBUILDER IS NOT A PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE!!!!!!

It is an IDE or you call it "power script" or whatsoever.

[kamsky]

You are taking it literally and not in context. Nobody will listen to a dumb person like you.

[dodie]

You are just blind. Powerbuilder is just a tool or IDE to create better scripts or you call it "power scripts" with built-in methods and other technojargons. It's not literally a programming language, dumbass.

The true recognized languages are c,c++,c#,java,assembly, .net.
