THE MIND ELECTRIC CEMENTS WEB SERVICES

The Mind Electric (TME) released version 4.1 of TME GLUE. TME GLUE is a fast, comprehensive, easy-to-use web services platform for Java developers creating, deploying, and managing applications with web services, JSPs, and servlets.

TME GLUE 4.1 provides an easy-to-use, high-performance, compact implementation of all the core web services standards, including XML, SOAP, WSDL, and UDDI. Most important, it allows any Java object to be instantly published as a web service and third-party web services to be consumed as if they were local Java objects. TME GLUE can be plugged into any servlet engine and ships with its own high-performance servlet/JSP engine for out-of-the-box standalone use. TME GLUE 4.1 adds additional features and support for:

Real-time Management Console - new easier-to-use flash-based console
SOAP 1.2 - supports the latest version of the SOAP messaging standard
DIME - for superior .NET interoperability
Document-Literal - advanced support for document-literal style
IDE Plug-ins - improved IDE plug-ins for Eclipse, JBuilder, and IDEA
WSDL Faults - enhanced support for advanced WSDL capabilities such as faults
WS-security and WS-routing - supports latest specifications
Enhanced UDDI Server
Installation Process - improved process simplifies and accelerates installation

"Our mission is to fundamentally simplify the creation, deployment, and management of distributed applications," explains Graham Glass, chairman and chief architect of The Mind Electric. "Our track record of innovation has made The Mind Electric a favorite in the developer community. GLUE 4.1 will continue to accelerate the early adoption of web services because it makes it far easier for developers to create web services, within just minutes of downloading the GLUE product."

TME GLUE was the first product to implement features such as dynamic proxy generation, dynamic WSDL generation, and transparent XML/Java serialization. These features, combined with its lightweight, elegant design, have made GLUE a favorite of the Java development community. With over 2,100 members, the GLUE developer forum on Yahoo! is the second largest group in the internet software development category.
