Diamondback Debugging

I haven’t written about Diamondback as much as I’d planned since others are doing such a good job of it. But one demo which I thought was neat was concurrently debugging Win32 and .NET apps.
the debugger is context-aware and will switch back and forth between Win32 and .NET modes as required. So you can create [...]

NDataStore

I’m listening to Steve Shaughnessey talk about NDataStore, Borland’s .NET native DB server. Jens Ole Lauridsen took the front end of a Java compiler, removed the byte code emitter, and converted it to emit C# code. Steve and Jens tweaked the conversion until they could build NDataStore from the JDataStore source code. NDataStore beats MySQL in the benchmarks they’ve tried. Read the full article for more information.

Delphi 8 and SQL Server Yukon

I’m watching Danny Thorpe and Euan Garden demonstrate writing managed code stored procedures using Delphi 8 and SQL Server Yukon. Since D8 uses the 1.1 version of the .NET framework and Yukon requires 2.0, this may seem unusual. Turns out all you have to do is specify a switch to the dccil command-line compiler indicating [...]

More New IB 7.5 Performance Monitoring Features

I gave my session on InterBase Performance Monitoring this morning. I was pleasantly surprised to see good attendance in spite of the fact that my session was concurrent with Allen Bauer’s "what’s new in Delphi" presentation.
In addition to the features I mentioned yesterday, IB 7.5 introduces three new server maintenance functions accessible through simple UPDATE [...]

Unit Testing in Diamondback at Monday General Session

Michael Swindell demoed unit testing in Diamondback at Monday morning’s general session. Very slick. There’s nothing added that you can’t do already with DUnit or NUnit, but with Diamondback it’s much, much easier. Write your class, then complete a couple of wizards to create a corresponding test project and test suite. The IDE generates [...]

Diamondback at Opening Keynote

David I showed a short video which (very briefly!) demonstrated new Diamondback features. It was hard to make out what was on the screen, but I noticed live help in the code completion dropdown (in a window to the side, which displays info about the method currently selected), and unit testing. Also a JBuilder-like (and [...]

Live from the Opening Keynote

Quinn Wildman recruited me to give a short presentation on InterBase Performance Monitor to his "Introduction to InterBase, Part 2" preconference this afternoon. I showed the first public preview of the new version of Performance Monitor, which includes support for new performance monitoring features in the upcoming 7.5 release of InterBase.
