  1. Accelerating Development with ECO Tim Jarvis tim.jarvis@borland.com

  2. ECO – What exactly is it ? • The Acronym • Enterprise Core Objects • A framework that provides Model Driven Development. • An Object Persistent Framework • Although not from the same Codebase, does inherit ideas and principles from BOLD • Slightly daunting at first, but worth the learning curve.

  3. Bill’s Quote Visual modeling tools that will reduce software coding “by a factor of five” over the next ten years. Bill Gates, Gartner Symposium, March 2004.

  4. ECO Model Powered Application Development • Rapid Model Driven Development • Object and Data Modeling in one process • It’s an OPF but…It’s not just an OPF • ECO II • ECO/ASP.NET • Session State • Pool Server • Synchronize Server • Generic O/R mapping • Task oriented hints

  5. Application Developers Analyst Business Manager ECO .NET Deployment Layer Database Database Database .NET Platform for Business

  11. ECO - ASP.NET II • Native .NET • Built on native ASP.NET • Binding to ECO ExpressionHandles • Templates for ECO.ASP.NET app, ECO WebServices • DBWebControl support • Use DbWebControls with ECO based ASP.NET applications • EcoDatasource exposing EcoSpace

  13. Demo ECO

  14. Learn More about Delphi 2005 and ECO • Borland Developer Network bdn.borland.com • BDNtv • Articles • Code • Local Borland representatives • The Web • Press Articles • Forthcoming articles, white papers and books

  15. Compact Framework and Delphi • Preview compiler available from • http://www.borland.com/downloads/registered/download_delphi.html • You will need the Compact Framework redistributables (if you have VS 2003 you already have it) • http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=a5a02311-194b-4c00-b445-f92bec03032f&displaylang=en • Good idea to have an emulator to test, get one here • http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=A120E012-CA31-4BE9-A3BF-B9BF4F64CE72&displaylang=en

  16. Compact Framework • Framework has emphasis on small, so many framework classes and methods missing. • InitializeComponent method will cause problems • One interim option is to use Chee Wee’s tool • http://cc.borland.com/item.aspx?id=23609
