New SpringSource Tool Suite targets Java complexity problem



Email    print   
March 24, 2008 —  SpringSource, the commercial sponsor of the Spring open-source IDE, has come out with a new tool suite that it claims unravels the complexity of Java application development while enabling middleware development using the Spring portfolio.

The SpringSource Tool Suite is based on the Eclipse Mylyn project, which is aimed at reducing information overload in software development and making multitasking easier. It does so by identifying only the information relevant to the task at hand, the company stated. Issue tracking support and code quality analysis tools also are pre-integrated into the suite, which includes the Spring IDE as a core component.

The release of the tool suite on March 18 coincided with SpringSource’s announcement that it has joined the Eclipse Foundation, which hosted the EclipseCon 2008 conference in Santa Clara.

The beta release of the suite will be followed by a commercial release in late April, SpringSource said.

On Jan. 29, San Mateo, Calif.-based SpringSource acquired Covalent, of Walnut Creek, Calif., which is known for its service and support of Apache Software Foundation applications, such as Apache Web Server and Tomcat.
