Comments on: JADE: Obscure Programming Language of the Month http://www.devtopics.com/jade-obscure-programming-language-of-the-month/ Software Development Topics Thu, 19 Jan 2012 13:36:14 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Dean Cooper http://www.devtopics.com/jade-obscure-programming-language-of-the-month/#comment-2685 Dean Cooper Mon, 22 Jun 2009 21:02:34 +0000 http://www.devtopics.com/jade-obscure-programming-language-of-the-month/#comment-2685 Just a slight correction to George's comment. While the company was founded originally on LINC (a 4GL for Burroughs then Unisys mainframe computers), JADE began as a greenfield R&D project in the late 80s - the first component of which was an object manager (and later an object database) that is still at the heart of JADE. Used by over 2000 organisations worldwide, in addition to the JADE language, the object manager has always provided external language APIs including C/C++, VB and Smalltalk. Recent additions include Java (in JADE 6.2) and .NET (in JADE 6.3). An overview of JADE is available here: http://www.jadeworld.com/downloads/jade/JADE_Overview.pdf Dean.

We have been using JADE applications for a long time now and found it very capable and powerful. Also very good for rapid application development and environments where you need to continuously develop and upgrade applications over time. Seriously superior is that respect (and also data management capactiy) to the relational databases we have used in the past.
