AUSTIN, Texas, USA (PRWEB) Sept. 2, 2005 -- REAL Software, Inc., providers of
REALbasic, cross-platform that really works, announced today the company will
ship REALbasic 2005 for Linux on Sept. 13, 2005. REALbasic 2005 for Linux is a
rapid application development (RAD) environment that enables professional and
non-professional programmers alike to quickly create software for
Linux.
"REALbasic 2005 will provide for Linux what Visual Basic provides
for Windows — more software for the platform," stated Geoff Perlman, president
and CEO of REAL Software. "REALbasic 2005 for Linux is a powerful, yet
easy-to-use tool, like Visual Basic, except that it builds applications for
Linux. An added benefit is that it also builds applications for Windows and
Macintosh from the same code base. REALbasic is cross-platform that really
works."
REALbasic 2005 for Linux enables both desktop and server
application development for Linux. In addition, REALbasic 2005 includes a Visual
Basic Project Converter that helps migrate existing Visual Basic applications to
REALbasic where they can be compiled for Linux. This is a benefit for companies
that are looking to migrate to Linux but have legacy Windows-based software that
was created with Visual Basic. For case studies on companies performing this
migration with REALbasic, see http://www.realsoftware.com/users/visualbasic.
