In JBuilder 2008's Application Factories, reusable code is delivered in the form of modules, which both contain code and capture knowledge about their purpose and design. Developers can choose from a collection of modules which are stored in a metadata repository to create their applications, or if necessary create their own application modules which they can store in the same repository for later reuse. “Application Factories radically reduces the amount of time it takes to bring our new developers up to speed,” said Doychin Bondzhev, owner, dSoft-Bulgaria Ltd. “Having the complete knowledge of the project evolution along with the source code, all maintained within the IDE, allows our developers to concentrate on real problems without having to worry about non-essential issues. Application Factories integrates seamlessly with our EJB-based middle tier running on JBoss, and our in-house Swing application development framework, and ultimately has given us a way to create a higher starting point and better standard practices for every new project we develop.” Said Matt Raible, founder and lead developer of AppFuse, an open source project that helps developers create web applications quickly with popular open source tools: “A common goal of both AppFuse and Application Factories is to reduce the inevitable ramp-up time due to the complexity and number of frameworks typically involved in building new Web applications. Application Factories takes a significant step forward in addressing this issue. It enables developers to take an application-centric approach to development and work in an IDE that is application-aware while continuing to leverage the flexibility and benefits of AppFuse as the underlying project skeleton.” JBuilder 2008 is also a commercial IDE for Java that includes Instantiations Swing Designer as an integrated feature of the product. Swing Designer, a user interface designer on Eclipse Plugin Central, is a visual layout tool that helps developers to construct Swing-based graphical user interfaces. Swing Designer includes bi-directional code generation, round-trip editing capabilities, and comprehensive support for Swing layouts, controls and containers, giving developers complete control over how they develop their code. Other key JBuilder 2008 capabilities include:
