Application Development Environment

Unwired Platform incorporates the Eclipse-based Sybase Unwired WorkSpace application development environment.

Sybase Unwired WorkSpace is an extensive set of tools that simplifies and abstracts back-end system connections, and provides a uniform object view of all enterprise data and transaction objects.

The back-end development environment also includes device application development tools that provide rapid application development and device/emulator testing support for RIM BlackBerry, Microsoft Windows Mobile, Microsoft Windows, and Apple iOS platforms.

Development is supported in a platform-neutral, as well as platform-specific, choice of languages and frameworks. For example, a Windows Mobile developer can use native C# and .NET Compact Framework programming. The same holds true for BlackBerry and iOS platforms.

The development environment provides an open, flexible platform, which enables you to integrate third-party device application components and development tools, without being locked in to a particular set of development tools. For Windows Mobile application development, you can install Sybase Unwired Platform Windows Mobile .NET Component in your Microsoft Visual Studio installation.
