NOMADS
The ProvideX Non-procedural Object
Module Application Development System (NOMADS) is an
integrated programming environment for the development
of complex GUI-based applications. NOMADS is bundled
with the ProvideX Development System and is fully
integrated with the ProvideX graphical program editor.
This set of highly advanced Rapid
Application Development (RAD) tools makes it easy to
develop user-friendly interfaces, controls, and
dialogues in harmony with existing character-based
applications. In addition, you can move your NOMADS GUI
applications to UNIX seamlessly via ProvideX thin-client
technologies (WindX and JavX).
NOMADS employs a top-down approach that streamlines
and simplifies development tasks, optimizes system
resources, and saves time. It enables you to:
- Separate your data, logic, presentation text,
and images into reusable segments.
- Localize and simplify changes to your
applications.
- Integrate NOMADS-built applications with other
types of applications.
- Design event-driven applications.
The system features a common data manager for
consistent access to a variety of data files. It also
facilitates the conversion from character-based to GUI
functionality by allowing you to run graphical and
character-based application components concurrently.
NOMADS Engine
The powerful run-time engine, *winproc, works behind the
scenes to process the components you built in NOMADS,
and effectively ties them together into an attractive,
user-friendly, GUI application
