FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE OpenBase acquires Code Builder, database code generator for REALbasic OpenBase announces new plugin designed to work with REALbasic standard edition CONCORD, NEW HAMPSHIRE, USA -- March 22, 2005 -- OpenBase International, Ltd., has acquired Code Builder, developed by Open Minded Solutions. Code Builder is a database application code generator for REALbasic, a cross-platform development environment for MacOS X, Windows and Linux platforms. "Code Builder is the missing link", explains Scott Keith, CEO of OpenBase International. "It builds the database access layer for you so you can manage data directly as encapsulated objects rather than having to write SQL. It saves time and money." "Code Builder cuts the time it takes to build database applications considerably," says Norman Palardy, developer of the new REALbasic plugin for OpenBase. "Code Builder offers significant advantages for developers who want to stay compatible with the standard REALbasic database API. Code Builder builds a complete database access layer on top of the standard REALbasic database API for maximum portability." Under the terms of the acquisition, the developers of Code Builder will join OpenBase International's development team to produce enhanced versions of the tools. Jevon Hills, lead developer of Code Builder, says, "We are excited to be joining the OpenBase team. OpenBase SQL has a rich feature set and is the best technology for building scalable business applications." Code Builder is being shown at the REALbasic developer's conference this week. Please contact Norman Palardy ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) to arrange a demo. Code Builder will be released under the OpenBase label in April and will sell for $199. DATABASE PLUGIN FOR REALBASIC STANDARD EDITION OpenBase also announced a new database plugin designed to work with the standard edition of REALbasic. The new plugin complies with the standard REALbasic API for database access. Code Builder, when combined with the new REALbasic plugin, offers a powerful and cost-effective solution for building database applications, without having to purchase the more expensive professional version of REALbasic. The database plugin for REALbasic standard edition will be released in April.
