TAGS: Application development

Real Software is shipping Realbasic 2006 Release 3 for Linux, which is a new version of its Visual Basic-like object-oriented programming language and environment.

The offering is intended to help enterprise developers migrate Visual Basic applications to Linux. More than 100 features and fixes are included in Release 3, which has been specifically optimized for use with the Suse Linux Enterprise Desktop from Novell.

Improvements include a version control format function that saves and exports projects in text format for use with version control systems such as CVS (Concurrent Versions System) and Subversion. Code error-checking also is highlighted, as are improved project navigation and Linux-specific improvements to boost the user experience and reliability.

Realbasic 2006 Release 3 for Linux Professional Edition is priced at $500. The Professional edition features cross-platform compilation, multi-user database development support and the ability to develop secure networked applications.
