CA-Visual Objects

An object-oriented client/server development system formerly from CA Technologies that is used to develop Windows applications. It provides visual programming tools and a programming language that evolved from Clipper. Visual Objects supports ODBC and SQL databases and includes a compiler for generating Windows EXEs and DLLs. In 2002, CA turned the product over to private software distributor GrafX Software Development Tools, Inc. for support and future development. For more information, visit www.grafxsoft.com.
