U2 Web DE Version 4.4

— filed under: Rocket - U2

Faster Performance, Reduced Cost

U2 Web DE 4.4 delivers an enhanced garbage collection process. Garbage collection frees up system resources, improving performance. With U2 Web DE 4.4, garbage collection no longer uses Webshare technology. Webshares previously allocated to garbage collection are now available to service Web requests, improving the responsiveness of Web applications. Or, applications can handle more requests with fewer Webshares, thus reducing costs.

The garbage collection process may now be scheduled on a more granular and predictable basis. Garbage collection schedules can be set to run on intervals set in terms of minutes, hours, and days. Garbage collection frees up system resources and enhances performance.

Improved Design Environment Usability

U2 Web DE 4.4 provides an integrated Eclipse-based design and test environment to quickly develop robust U2 Web applications. The U2 Web Designer, introduced at release 4.3, has been enhanced to include RedBack Object (RBO) design as well as RBOScope for testing and debugging. U2 Web Designer continues to provide a rich GUI environment for designing new or converting SB+ assets to ASP.NET-based Web solutions.

RedBack Designer has been replaced and rewritten as an integrated Eclipse-based component of U2 Web Designer. Testing and debugging of RBOs is also included in this integrated tool via a rewritten RBOScope plug-in. The result is an easy-to-use integrated tool that lets developers design and test interfaces and Web applications in a single environment.

Enhanced SB+ Conversions

As of release 4.3, U2 Web DE converts SB+ screens and processes to ASP.NET pages, leveraging existing business logic while quickly creating functional Web applications. U2 Web DE 4.4 enhancements to SB+ conversions include:

Improved integration with SB+ Security/Login
Improved AJAX capabilities
Support for auto converting SB combo boxes
Improved support of SB conversions
Processes SB+ work fields
