C++ and J.D. Edwards OneWorld Xe Development...

Summary

From October 2001 until November 2003 I worked for a global manufacturing company designing and implementing J.D. Edwards OneWorld Xe business solutions. J.D. Edwards is a large, very complex enterprise suite of applications that provides a proprietary Integrated Development Environment so the client can customize the solution to meet the needs of the business. I was hired because of my C/C++ expertise.

J.D. Edward’s underlying system is a large, extremely complex library of ANSI C DLL’s. I was able to rapidly apply my C++ experience to debug and fix critical system issues. I had to write many custom business functions to meet their specific business needs. I also had to write applications that utilized Win32 API’s including a serial port reader application.

I also designed and programmed custom business applications, reports and interfaces using J.D. Edward’s proprietary development tools including Form Design Aid (FDA), Report Design Aid (RDA), Table Design Aid (TDA), Business View Design Aid (BDA) and the Universal Table Browser (UTB ).

Their J.D. Edwards solution was built on top of an Oracle 8 database. Analyzing this large and complex system during application design and implementation helped me garner a lot of Oracle expertise. This experience would soon be leveraged during my next projects.

During this time I also wrote several custom utilities that increased team productivity. These applications were written in C# with Visual Studio .NET 2003.
