AccuRev INTEGRATES WITH SUN JAVA STUDIO

AccuRev Inc, a leader in advanced software configuration management systems (CM), announced that the company has joined Sun Microsystems's Java Studio Partner program and that the integration of AccuRev/CM and Sun Java Studio Standard 5 update 1 is now available for download from www.accurev.com.

AccuRev is the only configuration management system to offer the revolutionary TimeSafe architecture. AccuRev's completely new architecture and clean-sheet design separate it from legacy CM systems, all of which are derived from mid- 1970's technology. AccuRev/CM's unique architecture effortlessly allows groups of developers to implement unlimited hierarchies of parallel development streams. Only AccuRev delivers total graphical control of all development artifacts while simultaneously giving users complete freedom to manage development as they wish. AccuRev/CM features atomic transactions, absolute immutability of transactions, as well as TimeSafe versioning of all elements in a project to ensure consistency at all times.

Java Studio Standard is a powerful and intuitive Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for Java. Based on the NetBeans open source tools development platform, Java Studio provides a comprehensive set of features and functionality which enables the development of applications ranging from desktop to standards-based enterprise class applications and web services. New features in Java Studio Standard 5 update 1 such as the integrated Web application framework and increased IDE performance vastly improve developer productivity while supporting Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE platform), Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE platform) and Web service development.


Web services, utility computing, .NET, CPU harvesting and distributed computing are just a few of the technologies that fall under the Grid computing umbrella. Gt04 -- a premiere enterprise Grid computing conference targeting industrial and commercial users -- will gather experts, and outline strategies and road maps for Grid deployment.

"Sun believes that today's complex development projects require that the best available technologies are available to developers directly from within high- performance IDEs," said Jeff Anders, group marketing manager at Sun Microsystems. "Using AccuRev/CM together with Java Studio Standard gives the Java development community a powerful way to create and protect its investment in Java applications of all types."

Together, advanced capabilities in AccuRev/CM and Java Studio Standard allow developers to manage, control and protect development artifacts graphically in Java Studio's powerful IDE. All of AccuRev's power and ease-of-use is directly available in Java Studio, in addition to a graphical user interface and command line interface that permit AccuRev/CM to display and dynamically update the current configuration management environment. Developers using Java Studio have easy and unobtrusive access to sophisticated CM functionality, while other development groups, including release engineering, QA and management, can use AccuRev/CM's graphical tools for reporting and control of the CM environment.

"AccuRev is very pleased to partner with Sun to make our configuration management capabilities available to the Java development community," said Alex Neihaus, AccuRev's vice president of marketing. "AccuRev/CM is an ideal companion to Java Studio because it is the only client-server CM system available which combines ease of use and graphical control with guaranteed reproducibility of the state of any development project. AccuRev/CM and Sun Java Studio together offer a compelling solution for enterprise-class development."

AccuRev/CM 3.3.1, along with the Sun Java Studio Standard 5 integration, may be downloaded from www.accurev.com. AccuRev is available for Microsoft Windows, the Solaris Operating System, Linux and other Unix platforms. More information on Sun Java Studio is available at www.sun.com/software/sundev/jde/. The NetBeans 3.6 development IDE platform can be downloaded from www.netbeans.org.
