JBuilder 2008 Professional - Complete package - 1 named user - DVD Now with Revolutionary Code Reuse Capabilities

JBuilder® 2008 continues to drive innovation and deliver value to Java developers by providing an enterprise-class IDE based on the Eclipse open source framework with support for the leading commercial and open source Java EE 5 application servers. Expanding on the core Java functionality provided by the Eclipse 3.3 (Europa) open source framework and Eclipse Web Tools Platform (WTP) 2.0, JBuilder 2008 includes:
- Updated application server support
- Enhancements to TeamInsight™ and ProjectAssist™ for expanded ALM tool support now including StarTeam®
- Improvements to the code coverage and performance analysis tools including new Progress Tracker and ProbeKit functionality
- Expanded support for code audits and metrics within the code archeology capabilities
- An updated version of InterBase

In addition, CodeGear has added a comprehensive set of user interface construction tools enabling developers to rapidly create sophisticated Java Swing applications with full bi-directional editing capabilities while maintaining 100% synchronization between the code and visual design at all times.

Introducing Application Factories - game changing technology that dramatically reduces the complexity of real world Java development The JBuilder 2008 story doesn't end with a few new features or a handful of improvements; CodeGear has reinvented the Java IDE with the introduction of Application Factories. Application Factories offers a new approach to software development and code reuse which can best be described as an application-centric methodology. This innovative development metaphor, and the associated collection of tools which are now part of JBuilder 2008, allows developers to focus more on the nature and purpose of the application, and less on the underlying platform, framework, and technologies being used.

Supporting Application Factories, JBuilder 2008 has a collection of tools to record the developer's intent as an application is being created so that the workings of the code can be easily ascertained at a later date. And while Application Factories will certainly yield higher levels of productivity during the development of an application, one of the biggest benefits may come when that application has to be modified or enhanced, which frequently is long after the original thought behind the application can be captured, or maybe even after the original developer is available to work on the project again. This is because the metadata created by the Application Factories tool sets, which stays attached to the code when it is created, can be opened by any subsequent developer to understand the context and purpose of code snippets, methods, and classes which are part of the application.

JBuilder 2008 comes with pre-built application modules including end-to-end data-aware Web application modules for Struts 2, Spring MVC, and JSF, an e-commerce application module, and template application modules for PetStore and Book Store.

JBuilder 2008 Enterprise
JBuilder 2008 Enterprise provides a complete, enterprise-class Java IDE with collaboration and team development support based on the TeamInsight™ and ProjectAssist™ functionality, full support for UML 2.0 modeling and code archeology, and the newly introduced Application Factories which delivers unprecedented developer productivity and code reuse. JBuilder 2008 Enterprise also includes the new Progress Tracker capability which enables development teams to continuously monitor and measure the impact of performance changes by allowing them to compare visual snapshots of their progress; the new CPU root filter capability which enables developers to isolate and narrow down profiling; and the new ProbeKit functionality which enables dynamic and static instrumentation of an application.

JBuilder 2008 Professional
JBuilder 2008 Professional adds expanded support for the Java EE 5 platform and Web services development including visual EJB, JPA and Web services designers, as well as supporting deployment to leading commercial and open source Java application server. In addition, JBuilder 2008 Professional includes memory and CPU profiling tools, performance tuning tools, sophisticated Swing design capabilities, basic UML modeling features, and LiveSource® for Java with full two-way code and visual code diagramming.

JBuilder 2008 Turbo
JBuilder 2008 Turbo is available as a free, turnkey Eclipse bundle which provides the basic features and functions needed to create and deploy Java applications to today's leading commercial and open source application servers. The entry level member of CodeGear's renowned JBuilder family, JBuilder 2008 Turbo can easily be enhanced with powerful development tools such as the JGear plug-ins to add graphical RAD productivity, code performance profiling and debugging, and team collaboration features.
