BASIS International Ltd. releases version 15.0 of Visual PRO/5�, PRO/5�, and PRO/5 Data Server�. With this release and BBj 15.1, all PRO/5 users can take advantage of most of the non-SQL related BBj database features our customers around the world have come to love without the performance penalty associated with the TCP/IP communication layer when PRO/5 and BBj are on the same machine.
Additionally, Visual PRO/5 15.0 is the first version of the popular interpreter to be fully tested and supported under Microsoft's latest operating system, Windows 10.
Once the PRO/5 interpreters start using file access via BBj's PRO/5 DS, they can get significantly better performance and start utilizing several BBj database-specific features in and alongside their current applications, including:
* The PRO/5 interpreter can read and write VKEYED files, but they must first be created in BBj via the VKEYED verb or converted from a previous file type. Additionally, they cannot take advantage of some of the new syntax-based features of the VKEYED file type, such as referencing a key by name instead of KNUM.
