"I hold in suspect the ambition and foresight
of any PowerBuilder programmer that does not purchase this book. It is not a good book -- it is a must have."
--Rik's PowerBuilder Dojo
"Jaguar Development with PowerBuilder 7 has got to be one of the best books from Manning Publications I have ever reviewed. If you are new to DPB and looking for a good reference, this is the book. It is a fantastic book on the topic and will lead you through all the steps necessary to be successful with Jaguar. I wish this publication was
available when I was first learning Jaguar. It definitely would have saved me some sleepless nights. This is a must have for any Jaguar developer - no matter what level."

"This book is an amazing work. It takes you from a basic understanding of traditional PowerBuilder 2 tier development through all of the intricacies of dealing with this new technology. He explains in great detail all of the different options and how to implement them.
"You don't even have to know what Jaguar is. He defines it for you. He
tells you what it is, how it works, where it runs, how so install it, configure,
and manage it. Then he tells you how to create objects in PowerBuilder that
will live in the Jaguar environment. Finally he goes through practical applications
of this technology, just to make sure that you understand. I hold in suspect
the ambition and foresight of any PowerBuilder programmer that does not purchase
this book. It is not a good book -- it is a must have."
