Borland Readies Rebuilt JBuilder

By Jennifer deJong

December 1, 2006 — Borland Software has laid a new foundation for JBuilder, completing the transition of its Java IDE to the Eclipse framework.

The company was expected last month to announce JBuilder 2007. “This is the first release on the Eclipse platform,” said George Paolini, part of the executive team at Borland. Previous versions were based on PrimeTime, the company’s own underlying framework, but JBuilder 2007 has been rearchitected to take advantage of the open-source framework, he said.

The updated offering includes TeamInsight, which lets managers set up the Java IDE to also support the open-source tools their teams rely on. For instance, a manager could configure JBuilder to work with Subversion (for version control) Continuum (for continuous builds) and Bugzilla (for defect tracking), said Michael Swindell, Borland’s senior director of product management for the developer tools group. “When you start a new project in JBuilder, that project is automatically checked in to source control, build control, bug control,” he said.

Also new to JBuilder 2007 is the ability to create visual models of Enterprise JavaBeans, using a feature that is based on the company’s Unified Modeling Language offering, Together. The visual models of the EBJs automatically generate source code, and they also allow developers to “switch back and forth between the model and the code,” keeping the two synchronized, Swindell said. Earlier JBuilder versions offered the same capabilities for Web services, he said.

JBuilder is a key offering in CodeGear, Borland’s new developer tools subsidiary, which also includes its C++, C# and Delphi IDEs.

Borland acquisition now in doubt An unnamed company has made a counter proposal to Micro Focus's bid for Borland, which Borland has taken under consideration.

Zeichick’s Take: Micro Focus acquisition is the end of the line for Borland Borland will not be terribly missed, as its best products have already been acquired by Embarcadero. Micro Focus will be a better steward of what is left of Borland.
