Your First Application in 20 Minutes › What Is CA Plex? › Code Generation

Code Generation

Based on the designs held in the repository, CA Plex automatically generates 100% of the code to implement applications and database objects across a variety of platforms. Currently supported implementation options include:

• .NET Server applications generated in C# with Win32, Java or .NET clients.
• Multi-tiered e-business applications with Java or HTML clients and Java, Windows or System i (iSeries) servers
• Multi-tiered client/server applications with Win32 clients and Java, Windows or System i servers
• System i 5250 character based-terminals applications

CA constantly improves and expands the available generators to keep pace with customer demand and advances in technology. Generators insulate you from the underlying technology and its implementation details—CA Plex users can take advantage of new platforms simply by regenerating their existing designs.

This tutorial creates a Windows-ODBC application because this is the simplest platform to set up and configure. The development process is very similar regardless of the platform for which you are developing.
