PowerBuilder 11.1 Coming Soon!

PowerBuilder 11.1 will be released in a little over a week. While maintenance releases are usually not something to get too excited about, this one has some new features that are definitely worth exploring:

1. Enhanced Vista support
2. Data pipeline support for .NET Windows Forms targets
3. Informix 10 Database support
4. New .NET Web Form controls for menus, toolbars and the calendar control
5. Incremental Rebuild for .NET Application Targets
6. Specifying null values as retrieval arguments in the DataWindow painter
7. Statement caching for Oracle 10g
8. Enhanced identity column support for ASE 15
9. Orcascript enhancements
10. Page display properties for RichTextEdit controls
11. Web service client support in Web Forms

11.1 will be a free update for anyone who has PowerBuilder 11. I'll post information on how to download it once it becomes available.

Over the next week I'll be posting in detail about the new or enhanced features in PowerBuilder 11.1 so stay tuned.

Finally, be sure to check out my colleague Jim O'Neil's ISUG webcast on Tuesday November 13th. The topic is creating .NET Assemblies from PowerBuilder NVOs. You can register for it here.
