  • Update to Drupal 6.15
    December 2009

    In order to keep our Drupal installation secure, we quickly updated to version 6.15.

    As far as we know, none of the security issues fixed by Drupal 6.15 would affect any one of our existing customers. Yet, we prefer to be at the top security wise and made the change very quickly, as usual. If you have any question or encounter any problem, let us know. This change was very smooth and did not require any database updates.

    I also wanted to mentioned the arrival of our new Web 2.0 hosting system. We are still working on it, but very soon you will be able to jump on the bandwagon and get a ...

  • Made to Order Software releasing Order Made!® v1.11
    November 2008

    In October 2007, Made to Order Software released the first version of Order Made!®, an ordering system that adapts to any restaurant menu for their customers to order their food online.

    "Back in 1999, I came up with the concept for Order Made!® I actually wrote a first version but stopped there thinking that it was too soon and no one would want it. Papa John's Pizza actually started their own system two years later, in 2001," says Alexis Wilke, the CEO of Made to Order Software. "And in May 2008, they announced that they had reached $1 billion in online sales. Then ...

  • Commercial license for odbcpp
    October 2008

    In June 2008, Made to Order Software created a new software library called odbcpp. This library is an Open Source C++ wrapper of the Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) library started by Microsoft in 1988.

    ODBC hides the details of back-end database systems. In other words, if you support ODBC, you can effortlessly connect to a very large number of database systems such as MS-SQL, Access, Oracle, MySQL and PostgreSQL.

    odbcpp is an extension for C++ programmers. It is easy to use and it is a great solution to avoid many bugs as it will automatically handle all the possible ODBC errors for ...

  • PHP eFax v1.1 released

Now, we offer PHP eFax version 1.1 that not only sends faxes, it also parses inbound faxes with a single call to the PHP eFax object.

    eFax® is a company offering a reliable system to send and receive faxes cheaply. Their system works with the Internet and thus is directly accessible to your web server.

  • The odbcpp library is now available!
    June 2008

    Made to Order Software now uses the ODBC library with its modb library (which is part of our molib product.) Unfortunately, it is not only written in C, it generates many errors. Actually, every single function has the potential of returning an error. For this reason, using the C interface is simply not a safe option.

    For this reason, Alexis Wilke, our CEO, wrote an C++ wrapper called odbcpp. It encapsulates all the necessary ODBC calls to access any ODBC compatible database.

    The odbcpp library ensures the proper management of all the resources for you. It allocates and frees the handles as ...
