LyciaWeb Beta

Lycia II Beta Development package includes a Beta version of LyciaWeb Client. Unlike LyciaDesktop, LyciaWeb does not require any additional software to be installed on the client machine to launch the applications. It is a web client based on the HTML5 and Ajax technologies which makes your 4GL applications available for a larger number of users, since any system which utilizes a web browser can run your applications via LyciaWeb. The universality of the web client makes it possible to run applications on any portable device that supports a web browser.

Lycia II Development Update November 2011 - Lycia XML Interface

This winter, we introduced XML interface for Lycia. This innovation makes data processing simpler and significantly decreases the developer's hand writing job. XML is a mark-up language for manage structured data in documents or data stores. This structured information usually contains both, the actual data headings which describe the meaning and role of the data. The mark-up language identifies the structure of the data store and the new Lycia 4GL extensions aid you in working with them.

Lycia II Development Update August 2011 - Lycia Interoperational Java Integration

In the past, 4GL applications could only interoperate directly (without the use of SOAP) with C sources. The latest enhancement to the Lycia 4GL development language is the integration of the Java Language Interoperation. This exciting new interface provides 4GL application vendors with the ability to implement diverse software development projects by inter-operating with Java programs and modules. Java is currently the most used development platform and it is therefore no surprise, that Lycia can now fully utilize Java classes to conform with this standardization.
