Video: Team Developer 6.1 .NET Web Services
Watch the recorded webinar on TD 6.1 .NET Web Services. From the video you learn how to create, deploy and consume .NET Web Services from TD apps.
During this webinar I’m actually converting an existing Win32 client app that has the business logic in functional classes to become a.NET app that consumes the business logic from .NET Web Services. As you can see in the video this process requires little coding as the existing functional classes can be inherited to the new Web Services operations.

Video: No Database Client Apps using DBPipe
Team Developer 6.1 brings you this exciting new technology for .NET WPF Desktop apps. Apps can now be deployed without installing any database client software on the deployment computer, thanks to the enhanced DBPipe technology. DBPipe will take care of the communication between the app and the database.
Think of how many hassles this will save you, no dbclient software installation and zero cost for database clients.
Watch the webinar video below to see DBPipe in action and learn how to configure it for your needs.

Added to TD 6.1 since the Devcons last year
We received lots of very good feedback on the future of Team Developer and SQLBase at the worldwide devcons last year. Several of the enhancement requests could still be added to the Team Developer 6.1 project. With this article I’d like to give you an overview of what these additional features are.
Our current plan is to release Team Developer 6.1 towards the end of February this year.
Grids (Making it easier to upgrade apps to .NET)
- For the new grid summary bar, it is now possible to programatically receive a columns summary value and also to set a columns summary value. This gives developers more flexibility in how to use the grid summary bar by deciding what the summary content shall be on their own, instead of only using predefined min, max and similar macros.
- For grids and table windows a new attribute has been introduced that allows to switch off the title bar. This can be used to mimic a table window split window when a grid or table window without title bar is placed below an existing table window or grid. Developers can then use the grid without title bar to implement table window split like functionality.
Programatically setting the language ID of an application
For customers that deploy their applications worldwide, this new feature is good help, as it allows to run an application in a programmatically settable language even though the host Windows system is a different language. For example an application that is developed in English can be deployed on a French or Japanese Windows and the application would still all have an English user interface. Some of TD’s built in controls and menus do include language dependent resources. Without setting the language ID this can result in for example an English app running on a French Windows would have certain UI element text resources displayed in French. For example the grid grouping dialog displays text depending on the OS language. If the developer set the language ID of the app to English the grid grouping dialog will all be in English even on a French Windows.
Imap support for the SalMail class on Win32 and .NET
With TD 6.0 we introduced a new email class library that is capable of sending and retrieving email via POP3 and SMTP servers. The SalMail class library has been extended to include support for IMAP mail server access now, giving you major flexibility when sending and retrieving email.
Charting control enhancements
For the chart control we have added a new method that allows to place text anywhere on the chart, plus several new methods that allow to set the number of ticks between major data points.
Video TD 6.1 Consuming Web Services from .NET Apps
This webinar video demos everything you need to know to consume Web Services from TD 6.1 .NET apps. From a high level introduction to all details like how to use the new .NET Web Services Wizard and how to call Web Service operations from within your code. The webinar contains lots of sample code and sample apps that consumer Web Services and also detailed information on how to pass and receive values from a Web Service including complex data types like UDVs and arrays of UDVs.

DevCon 2011 Review
The 2011 Unify devcons have been a huge success. We visited many places in Northern America and Europe. Everywhere attendees were excited about what is coming for them in Team Developer 6.1 and SQLBase 11.7. At a high level TD 6.1 introduces a new high usability IDE, new GUI features and many new .NET features. The main feature of SQLBase 11.7 is 64-bit OS support.
Here is a quick overview of what attendees got to see. The hyperlinks link to the presentations and samples of the devcon sessions.
Unify Management did the introductions laying out how well the Databases and Tools business of Unify is doing. Unify CTO Duane George presented the short and mid term roadmaps for Team Developer and SQLBase.
Horst de Lorenzi, Head of the Team Developer Development Team and Martin Teetz Product Manager introduced TD 6.1 to the crowd.
Unify Engineers, Consultants and Customers presented details about TD 6.1, SQLBase 11.7 and several showcases of how customers are getting their apps to .NET and how SQLBase is being used in large cloud deployments.
All the session presentations and samples can be found after the break.

Video: Team Developer 6.1 Sneak Peek II
Talking .NET only this time. See what features and improvements TD 6.1 brings to .NET apps.
Create apps that consume Web Services. Create apps that provide .NET Web Services.
Create WPF Desktop apps that can be deployed without installing any database drivers on the client using Unify’s unique DBPipe technology.
DBPipe is cool, deploy your apps without any client configuration, no sql.ini, no database drivers and the best no code changes.
For example run a WPF Desktop app in Munich Germany and access an Oracle server in Roseville California. The client has no Oracle drivers installed and no sql.ini. Uses DBPipe to talk to the database. Live demo of the described DBPipe scenario is available with the YouTube video below.
