== History ==
REALbasic was created by Andrew Barry. It was originally called CrossBasic due to its ability to compile the same programming code for Mac OS and [[Java (programming language)|Java]] (although the [[integrated development environment]] was Mac only). In [[1997]] CrossBasic was purchased by FYI Software which renamed it REALbasic as well as renaming the company REAL Software. At this time they dropped the Java target, later replacing it with a Windows target and database support. The [[Integrated development environment|IDE]] is now available for [[Microsoft Windows]], [[Mac OS X]], and 32-bit x86 [[Linux]] and can compile applications for Windows (Windows 2000 and higher), Mac OS X ([[PowerPC]], [[Intel]], and [[Universal Binary]]) and 32-bit [[x86]] Linux.
With 2010 Release 1, the [[Integrated development environment|IDE]] has been renamed REAL Studio. The programming language itself will remain REALbasic.
