Silverlight and mv.NET together provide the tools to allow you to future-proof your MultiValue application, incorporate non-MultiValue programmers into your development teams and deliver cutting-edge, visually compelling browser-based applications. Let us show you how easy it is to amaze your customers and users by giving your MultiValue applications the Silverlight touch!

More about mv.NET

mv.NET is a suite of components designed to provide the MultiValue developer with a comprehensive solution to the challenge of creating Microsoft .NET based applications requiring access to MultiValue databases.

With support for all major MultiValue platforms, mv.NET is truly the essential tool for all MultiValue developers wishing to create .NET applications, whether the need is to enhance current applications or to build completely new ones.

More About Silverlight

Silverlight is an extensive web browser plug-in that allows web browsers to host desktop-like .NET applications. These applications are created in a very similar manner to the way in which traditional (rich-client) desktop applications are built.

More About Solution Objects

Solution Objects will revolutionize the way in which you access and manipulate your MultiValue data from within Visual Studio. It provides easy to use database access for developers who don’t have detailed knowledge of MultiValue database technology or even databases in general. Also, it encourages developers to produce more intuitive, readable code resulting in much faster, more effective application development. With .NET set to dominate the application development space, mv.NET with Solution Objects sets a new benchmark for mainstream developer usage of MultiValue databases.

mv.NET Version 4.2 Release Details

July 29, 2010 - BlueFinity International, a member of the Mpower1 Group of Companies, reveals enhancements to mv.NET, an extensive toolset designed for creating Microsoft .NET- based applications requiring access to MultiValue logic and databases.

The latest release, version 4.2, brings some important additions to BlueFinity's flagship product, including:

Support for Visual Studio 2010
Support for Silverlight application development
A new data-linked XAML Form Creation Tool

As David Cooper, lead developer at BlueFinity, explains "The coming-of-age of Microsoft's Silverlight technology opens up a huge door of opportunity for developers to create sophisticated, professional interfaces to their existing applications without the need to learn a hat-full of new languages and technologies. For MultiValue developers, the opportunity is just as large because mv.NET provides everything required to link your existing MultiValue data and programs to this fantastic Silverlight environment".

He goes on to explain, "Silverlight allows us to create applications that look and feel like desktop or rich-client applications, except they run inside a Web browser (pretty much any browser - IE, Chrome, Firefox, Safari to name a few). What's more, you create these Silverlight applications using a single programming language (C#, VB or whatever .NET language takes your fancy) and build it all in a single development environment - Visual Studio."

"With the new version of mv.NET, we haven't just paid lip service to providing Silverlight support - we've gone the whole 9 yards and provided deep integration and tooling for MultiValue developers. This allows you to create stunning, industry standard applications using industry standard tools in amazingly short timeframes."

"Silverlight has rapidly attracted massive developer uptake -- already hundreds of thousands of developers are creating Silverlight applications. This kind of uptake, of course, grabs the attention of tools vendors and consequently there is a thriving 3rd party tools and components development community catering for the needs of pretty much the whole application development spectrum."

Visual Studio 2010 brings the much awaited enhancements to the Silverlight visual designer. It also brings an improved IDE interface, making heavy use of WPF. As Cooper explains, "It's a great development environment, used by millions of developers around the world. It's easy to learn and easy to use, so it's a breeze for developers with existing deep MultiValue application development experience to add a new string to their developer bow".

Cooper concludes, "Gone are the days of having to use proprietary solutions to get the job done quickly. We are now able to create state-of-the art interfaces to our tried and trusted MultiValue applications in cost effective timeframes using easy to learn, easy to use, industry standard tools. Tools that allow us to start opening up this fantastic thing called a MultiValue database to a whole world of non-MultiValue aware developers…and that's got to be a very good thing for all of us in the MultiValue market!"
