SOLUTIONS

Transport™ Architect

Architect streamlines design and development cycles by providing a complete and accurate reverse engineered view of the application baseline using UML (including database structures).  Architect increases developer productivity by automatically generating foundation code for database schema, table maintenance stored procedures, data access class wrappers, inter-application workflow, and class structures directly from the UML design.

Transport™ Visual Expert

Visual Expert is a powerful source code analyzer for legacy Visual Basic and PowerBuilder applications.

It enables development teams to rapidly acquire and transfer application knowledge by referencing critical application components, identifying business rules, automatically creating system documentation and exporting the entire application code structure to XML for custom analysis and ready integration using UML.
