Re: self-contained db for osx app

WHat you described is what I would like to do, however, I would like the "front-end" to be 100% native cocoa. I don't know if creating the whole setup thru 4d would give me that.

Hi Brent,

I'm not sure I quite understand your question but see if this helps:

It sounds like you want to use 4D as the "back-end" to some other
front-end application?

The first question I would ask is why not just build the whole thing
with 4D?  Have you run into some limitations?

You can definitely configure 4D Server v11 SQL to be a SQL server.  All
you need to do is enable the SQL Server preferences, and have the
appropriate license. You can find information about our deployment
licenses here:
