Features

GoDB Features

• Works on all handheld platforms - WindowsCE, Symbian and Linux.
• Special Field for Signature Capture , Lookup Tables Grids etc.
• Complete RDBMS with ANSI SQL-92 engine included.
• GBasic Scripting language for developing business logic in the forms.
• GBasic is tightly integrated with the RDBMS and the Browser, so
  reports can be generated directly on the handheld.
• SmartSync allows only updated data to be synchronized.
>
• Data is compressed before transmission to save time and bandwidth.
• Scales with the platform. Start with a basic Device and scale to a Pocket PC Device for heavy-duty mobile applications**.
  **Based on processing power, amount of memory and storage resources.
• Can use Dialup (Serial/IRDA), LAN(Ethernet), WLAN 802.11 and even SMS for communication.
• Optional GPS Nema parser for GPS and GIS Applications.
• Complete built-in support for printing to serial printers.
• Forms can be filled offline using offline master tables and can be posted online.
• Code and data gets distributed while synching.

Browser Features

Supports all critical browser tags. All the fields can be dynamically positioned anywhere on the page using GBasic scripting.Following GUI controls are supported

• Text data.
• Labels.
• Textfields. (Editable text box for data entry)
• Password Fields.
• Listboxes.
• Radio buttons.
• Checkboxes.
• Read-only Fields.
• Date boxes with calendar lookup dialog.
• Button Fields.
• Submit Fields.
• Cancel Fields.
• Hidden Fields.
• Sign Boxes (For capturing signatures, doodles etc).
• Image Boxes (For displaying Jpg and Gif images).
• Polygon Boxes (For drawing polygons on the page).
• Lookup tables for populating related forms.
• Grids to view reports and related tables after joining.

Field validators to validate empty fields, numeric fields, date fields etc are pre-built.
All fields fully controllable via scripting.

RDBMS Features

• Transaction support.
• ANSI SQL-92 support.
• Optimized to use very little memory without losing performance.
• GBasic commands to execute all RDBMS features.  

SmartSync Features

• Uniform sync platform for all the PDAs.
• One click sync.
• Automatically identifies and updates only modified data.
• Multiuser sync rules can be customized.
• Multi-database connectivity.
• Can use any transport. Serial, IRDA, TCP/IP, Activesync (PocketPC).
• Data transfer is compressed to save online time and bandwidth during sync operations.
• Data is encrypted while syncing.
• Application DeploymApplication Deployment Integrated into SmartSync.

Scripting

• Compatible with standard Basic language, so no special training is required.
• Automatic garbage collection for variables.
• All the features of the browser and RDBMS can be scripted.
• Event driven programming.
• Add fields to forms dynamically.
• Position and animate fields at runtime.
• Extensions to handle RDBMS, graphics, form fields.
• Support for subroutines and libraries, so code can be reused easily.

IDE

• Windows hosted IDE for development of applications.
• Simulators to simulate all the platforms.
• Source level debugger with breakpoints and watches for GBasic.
• Built-in source code versioning.
• On-Device debugging from IDE.
• Publish GoDB applications directly to GoDB Sync Server.
• Publish GoDB applications directly to devices, for on-device testing.
• Secure Remote Debugging.

Value Proposition

• Develop rapidly – all components for business applications like forms, local RDBMS, Sync and scripting built-in.
• Develop once deploy anywhere – same code base for all the platforms from laptops to PDAs to smartphones.
• Develop End to End solutions – no third party Databases and sync engines required
• Very low development and maintenance costs. State of the art IDE with a simple scripting language that anyone can learn.
• Protect your investment by using the same code base for all platforms.
• Protect your software from hardware obsolescence – no need to rewrite your native application when the hardware is obsolete or when a new hardware/OS is introduced.
• Eliminate deployment issues by distribution your application through Sync Server.
