SANTA ANA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 29, 2000--Starbase Corp. SBAS , the leading provider of collaboration products for the creation and management of integrated code and content e-business applications, Friday announced the general availability of CodeWright 6.5, The Programmer's Editor(TM).
CodeWright 6.5, an advanced code editing system developed for the Windows environment, includes enhanced functionality targeted specifically to increase traditional application development efficiency as well as new support features for XML and HTML e-business development.
"As the demand and sheer scope of development projects continue to rise, tools that help speed the process become more critical to meet deadlines," stated Mike Dickason, software developer for Autodesk Inc.
"CodeWright 6.5 delivers powerful navigation features and a level of customization that I find invaluable in meeting our development requirements and standards. The HTML and Web support added to this release will serve to extend CodeWright's usability, but it is the powerful language support and CodeSense that makes CodeWright 6.5 the most powerful tool I've used for creating and enhancing code."
Today's developers require proficiency in the tools and techniques of numerous languages and development environments. CodeWright 6.5's customizability enables the standardization of development environments and eliminates the need to continually learn the behaviors of different development GUIs and IDEs.
CodeWright 6.5 features new support for ASP, XML, HTML, C(pound sign), Perl and Python, as well as enhanced CodeSense(TM) for Java and C/C++. CodeSense minimizes manual programming input by recognizing and completing extensions as well as providing easy definition lookup. These features speed the editing process and improve code quality.
"Key factors in meeting on-time delivery of Web applications lie in increasing developer productivity and improving the quality of code," stated Lydia Patterson, vice president of Products Group for Starbase Corp.
"CodeWright 6.5 addresses both these aspects by applying CodeSense functionality to HTML and Web applications, speeding the editing process and enhancing code quality. Our goal in developing CodeWright 6.5 was to produce a world-class editing system for both traditional and Web developers. We've succeeded."
CodeWright 6.5 satisfies the diverse needs of Java(TM), XML and legacy COBOL programmers, enabling editing in either a Web page view or in the standard HTML edit screen. Additional improvements to CodeWright 6.5 and CodeSense allow more customizations, new hot keys and an expanded CodeSense library that contributes to an overall faster development environment and greater programmer productivity.
