MyEclipse is proud to announce immediate availability of the popular SNAPs tools to Sun's NetBeans, IntelliJ IDEA and Microsoft's Visual Studio developers via “Use-Anywhere” connectors.
Users of NetBeans, IDEA and Visual Studio are now able to utilize the MyEclipse Visual HTML Designer, XML Editor, Database Explorer and Image Editor SNAPs directly in their own environment. Additional SNAPs will be made available using other MyEclipse features by integrating open source technologies and through partner extensions.The SNAPs are part of the expanding Fusion Technology suite of tools that allows developers to accomplish focused tasks without the weight of an entire IDE. They can also be used with other development tools thereby freeing users from the vendor lock-in that is commonly associated with development environments. A quote from Genuitec's CEO, Maher Masri: “We proved we could fuse external technologies when we ported Matisse into MyEclipse. Then, SNAPs took this concept to the next level by allowing us to add external functionality to our toolset without adding weight to the IDE. Today, we're proud to go even one step further and deliver our tools directly to users of other environments. There will be more connections to come in the near future as well.” The MyEclipse “Use-Anywhere” connectors for NetBeans, IDEA and Visual Studio are available immediately. All require the All-in-One installation of MyEclipse 5.5M1 Enterprise Workbench, which can be downloaded here.
