CodeGear Releases RAD Studio 2007


Updated RAD suite bolsters integration with company products



September 7, 2007 — 
Looking to help developers more quickly build Windows and Web applications, CodeGear released on Wednesday CodeGear RAD Studio 2007.

RAD Studio is the company’s rapid application development (RAD) environment for Microsoft Windows, and the 2007 release delivers the company’s Delphi for Win32 RAD tool, C++ Builder, and Delphi .NET 2.0 development tools in a single, integrated environment. The company claims that it is the only IDE that supports rapid application development of both native Microsoft Windows and .NET applications on, and for, Microsoft Windows 2000, XP and Vista.

New in RAD Studio 2007 is enhanced Delphi support for the Microsoft Vista Aero UI, Delphi compatibility with Microsoft .NET 2.0 and ASP.NET 2.0, and the ability in Delphi for .NET to use any type of data structure as a parameter.

BlackFish SQL, CodeGear’s SQL-compliant transactional database, is fully integrated with the new version of RAD Studio. Developers can use RAD Studio’s Data Explorer to manage their Blackfish databases, company officials said.

RAD Studio 2007 also adds Enterprise Core Objects, which is a .NET model-driven development (MDD) framework. Enterprise Core Objects allows developers use diagrams to build objects and object relationships. The dbExpress 4 database, CodeGear’s single-source Windows database infrastructure, can now work with RAD Studio.

“Just as the Windows platform and the Web are continually evolving, CodeGear’s Delphi and C++ products are also evolving to help developers take advantage of these changes, creating new opportunities for both ISVs and client/server developers,” said Nick Hodges, Delphi product manager at CodeGear. “CodeGear RAD Studio 2007 has new features for developers interested in high-performance Windows applications.”
