Software Tool & Die Inc. has released the 2022-R2 version of their Integrated Foundation Class library framework.
Just like the 2022R1 version, 2022-R2 is also exclusive to PowerBuilder 2021, PowerServer 2021 (Cloud) and Infomaker 2021. Also, this is claimed to be the last release for PB 2021 by the STD team. The next edition of the framework will be for PB/PS/IM 2022.
STD continues to give an upper hand to PB developers by providing them an updated open framework combined with the current PowerBuilder and/or PowerServer products. This enables smooth integration of the STD framework in today’s Agile & DevOps methodologies.
