[REBOL] Smart Client
From: AJMartin:orcon at: 30-Sep-2003 20:30
Quoted from:
http://www.windowsforms.net/whitepaper/whywindowsforms.aspx
Microsoft Windows® Forms is the set of classes in the .NET Framework that
enables the rapid development of powerful smart client applications. Its
benefits include:
a..
Extending the Microsoft Visual Basic® rapid application development
experience to all of the programming languages supported by the .NET
Framework (more than 20).
a..
Providing developers with rich, powerful, extensible libraries for
user-interface controls and graphics.
a..
Providing dramatically improved support for localization, printing,
layout, and usability.
a..
Making it easy for developers to tie XML Web services into their smart
client applications.
a..
Dramatically reducing total cost of ownership through "no-touch"
deployment, which eliminates "DLL hell" and makes it possible for smart
client applications to be deployed and updated using a remote Web server.
It reminds me of the promise of Rebol, but seems to deliver. :-/
