Nexaweb Studio 2.4 Simplifies Rich Internet Application and Enterprise Web 2.0 Development with Enhanced UI Design and Data Integration FeaturesNew Features Enable Enterprises to Build and Deploy Rich, Composite Applications via the Web; Increase Productivity, Reduce Development Time, and Lower Costs August 23, 2006; 03:17 AM "Today, consumer and enterprise users alike are demanding more from their online experiences," said Ronald Schmelzer, senior analyst with ZapThink. As a result, enterprises are leveraging the convergence of SOA and Web 2.0 technologies to retire their static Web pages and inflexible portal applications in favor of new online applications that behave more like the desktop applications they are used to. Technologies like Nexaweb's Studio 2.4 that simplify and speed the development of data-driven, composite applications are going to be a critically important tool as enterprises build and deploy next-generation online business applications and concepts such as enterprise mashups, collaborative intelligence solutions and Rich Internet Applications (RIAs)." Nexaweb Studio 2.4 builds on the success of early versions of its plug-ins that provide additional Eclipse Perspectives with enhanced UI design, business logic development and data integration capabilities that speed the development of EW2.0 applications. The new and enhanced features offered in Nexaweb Studio 2.4 include: -- Nexaweb Business Logic Development -- An enhanced Event Wizard guides users through the steps required to connect business logic to UI components. Business logic resides between the presentation-tier and the data-tier in an application. Event handlers are used to connect the business logic to the presentation tier (UI components). Studio 2.4 eliminates the need for users to remember which types of events are available for a given component type, which elements are required to make the connection and the exact XML syntax. -- Nexaweb Data -- A new data interface provides a flexible and powerful approach to binding UI components to data through a data component directory. The interface presents Web application designers with a comprehensive list of data components that make it easy to identify and select data to bind to a UI component without having to manually code XML or manually open data files in separate views. Additionally, when data wizards are invoked, the context (the component selected at the time the wizard is invoked) is used to pre-populate form fields wherever possible. The new data interface includes support to browse the content of a XML or object-based data source. The data source schema is extracted and displayed such that the fields may be reviewed and connected to a UI component via drag-and-drop. Drag-and-drop capabilities are available among many other views and appropriate wizards are invoked based on the UI and data component types. -- Nexaweb Visual Editor -- New Panel Templates reduce the time required to develop UIs and eliminate the need for learning the nuances of specific layout managers. For experienced users, several new templates are available that provide predefined panels, menus, and controls for quickly creating UIs that mirror common UI metaphors. For new users, there are new templates that clearly demonstrate layout manager capabilities. "Cost management and time-to-market continue to be top priorities for every application development organization," said Coach Wei, founder and CTO at Nexaweb Technologies, Inc. "With our customers in mind, we made ease-of-use and data integration enhancements our focus with Nexaweb Studio 2.4. New wizards, interfaces, and templates simplify the creation of Enterprise Gadgets and re-usable components that link UI widgets to multiple Web services, enterprise data and business logic to give customers and their development team's a competitive advantage in building richer, thinner, faster business-critical Internet applications." Availability and Pricing Nexaweb Studio 2.4 is available immediately. Pricing for Nexaweb Studio 2.4 starts at $1,495. Nexaweb Enterprise Web 2.0 Solution The Nexaweb Platform -- is a robust, scalable product set that separates business logic from application presentation to simplify the development and deployment of EW2.0 applications.
