and to confidential data. With Visual Guard you can define what each
user can do, see and modify in it.
Visual Guard 2.6 adds Logging and Auditing features. You can keep
track of users' activity and review it later. Visual Guard can log
important actions in the application (financial transaction for instance)
and the administration console (invalid connexion attempt, locked
account, password modification).

Appeon Fully
Supports PowerBuilder Foundation Class (PFC)!
Now Sybase PowerBuilder Foundation Class (PFC) can work with Appeon
5.x seamlessly! Appeon-Compliant Framework (ACF) will no longer be
used. Recently Appeon engineers worked on Sybase open source PFC 10.5
and released the PFC that can work with Appeon Web conversion tool
without changing any user code.
To download the PFC 10.5 from Sybase website, please access http://pfc.codexchange.sybase.com
and login. Select Documents & files from the left menu, expand
the Release node, click into PB 10.5 folder and then download “2007.11.07
release”.
Simply replacing the PFC framework used in your PowerBuilder application
with the newly updated one, you will find out that deploying PFC on
Web turns to be so easy! Now this PFC is only available for PowerBuilder
10.5, but the edition for other PowerBuilder versions will come out
soon!
Note: any extension code developed in the PowerBuilder Foundation
Extension (PPE) level needs to be verified no Appeon unsupported features
before copying into the new PFC.
