For those Oracle Developers who want to work in an
OS/2 environment there is a ray of hope. Using the
built in JavaScript capabilities of OS/2 Netscape
and Warp's Java you can develop and run applications
that access Oracle databases over the web. WebDB
allows you to create and run queries, reports and
input forms strictly using a Java enabled browser.
While not as powerful at this point as its big
brother Developer 2000 it has one big plus and that
is: it works under OS/2!
I am currently using the NS 4.61 beta2 and java
1.1.8, NS 2.02 works but has some screen rendering
problems and occasional JavaScript errors. WebDB and
the Oracle database needs to run on a Solaris, *nix
or NT box but developers and users need only a
browser. You can download WebDB at
http://technet.oracle.com/ after registering.
[Moderator's note: I use WebDB with Navigator/2 2.02
to access Oracle 8 databases without any problems.]
