Developing web applications in WebPublisher Studio is easy!

If you've ever developed in Omnis then you'll feel at home straight away.

WebPublisher Studio uses a Plug-in architecture that allows delivery of several discrete web services using a single server.

  • Applications are written using the Developer Toolkit and deployed to the WebPublisher Studio server.
  • The Developer Toolkit supplies all the tools needed for writing HTML active server pages and Omnis Studio thick client applications.
  • The Toolkit provides editors for writing and configuring WebPublisher Studio resources such as Macros, Code Resources, Tasks and Template Forms.
  • You can define variables (see Macro Editor - right) for capturing active server CGI parameters.
  • Variables can also be created 'on-the-fly' using markup tags in Code Resources.
  • Web Forms can be prepared using conventional HTML development tools such as Dreamweaver and Frontpage and pasted into WebPublisher Studio Code Resource snippets..
  • WebPublisher Studio server instances can be set to listen on multiple ports allowing partitioning of web services using a single IP.
  • WebPublisher Studio Server can be configured in a server cluster with single instances of the server application dedicated to specific web services or functions.
