Features: This book is part of the "PowerBuilder 9.0 Application Development Series" and titled "PowerBuilder 9.0 Case Development." The entire book focuses on the development of large and medium-sized application cases, targeting three practical application systems ("Library Management System," "Home Financial Management System," "Advanced Human Resource Management System"). Using software engineering development methods, it systematically analyzes and explains the entire process—from requirements analysis and modeling to system design, coding and testing, and application deployment. Additionally, the book provides detailed examples of the database modeling tool PowerDesigner and the installation program creation tool InstallShield used in the application development process. This book not only covers the coding process but also emphasizes the entire development process, enabling readers to understand the design and development philosophy of database application systems while mastering the entire development process of large-scale database application systems and grasping the key and challenging aspects of development. The book comes with a companion CD-ROM containing the source code and usage instructions for the application systems discussed. It is a must-read for those learning the development process and philosophy of large and medium-sized database application systems, targeting intermediate to advanced readers who have some PowerBuilder foundation but are confused about developing actual database application systems and are unfamiliar with the practical project development process.
