Forms
GNU Enterprise Forms is an XML-based forms system. It will
read XML files to create GUIs for Win32, GTK+, and Curses. It
is fully data-aware and can be used in n-tier environments with
GNU Enterprise Application Server (AppServer) or in 2-tier
environments (i.e talking directly to the database server).
The Forms client includes basic data-manipulation facilities
(e.g. inserting records, entering and executing queries),
both for single table/object and master-detail.
Triggers can be written to execute more complicated actions
(e.g. external validation)
The main, or reference, Forms client is written
in python, and has three main modes:
 wxpython/wxWindows
GNUe Forms client
Curses
(text-only) GNUe Forms client
Native GTK2
GNUe Forms client
Status
Release 0.5.3 (March 2004) available for download.
Development work continues in CVS.
Other Forms Clients
Other Forms clients have been partially
developed in the past, and some are still under development.
In general, these will not have the full functionality of the
main/reference implementation.
