Guys,

If you are looking for a very good toolkit for data-centric (and other)
application development, with form editor, report writer, SQL generator
based on properties imported from the database (but also capability to use
"manual" SQL or CLI calls), dynamic 4GL, C and Java integration, capability
of n-tier development with both client and server side developed in the
same tool (or not), text, GUI and Web deployment etc, look at
https://sourceforge.net/projects/possl/. What sets this tool aside is
tremendous productivity it affords.

This is essentially the version 4.18 or Prolific's Panther tool (
http://www.prolifics.com/specialties/prolifics_accelerators/jampanther, now
in version 5.5), with very permissive license akin to Apache, BSD or
"Artistic" (as opposed to GPL). The toolset has 25+ years of history behind
it, and I can wholeheartedly recommend it (although I mostly use the
commercial version, because my clients do).

I suggested early on to GNUe team to adopt and further develop this
toolset, forking it if they see it fit, and concentrate their efforts on
developing the actual ERP instead of reinventing the toolset wheel, but
nobody was interested, apparently because of the tool commercial origin. I
suppose they don't use Java or Eclipse, either, then... This is all too
common OSS malady - reinventing everything, instead of building on efforts
of others.

I hope someone will find this useful.

Regards,
Dragi
