WSO2 webinar on August 21, will compare OAuth 1.0a and OAuth 2.0 open authentication standards and examine implementation best practices
Palo Alto, CA – August 16, 2012 – The OAuth open authentication standard has gained popularity as businesses and consumers conduct more transactions on the Web. Key among its benefits is the ability of users to share content stored on one site with another site without having to share all their access permissions. However, developers have had second thoughts as they face incompatibility between OAuth 1.0a and OAuth 2.0 and concerns by OAuth 2.0’s former lead author that the newer standard is more complex, less interoperable, and potentially less secure (http://hueniverse.com/2012/07/oauth-2-0-and-the-road-to-hell). To help IT professionals address these concerns, WSO2 will present a webinar that examines the OAuth versions and implementation best practices.
The one-hour technical session, “OAuth 2.0: The Path to Heaven from Hell?," is being held twice on Tuesday, August 21: 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. PDT for the Americas and 10:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. GMT for Europe and Asia-Pacific. For more information, visit http://wso2.org/library/webinars/2012/08/oauth-2-the-path-to-heaven-from-hell.
The webinar will begin with an introduction to the pre-OAuth era. The session then will examine OAuth 1.0a and OAuth 2.0 authentication concepts, similarities and differences. Additionally, the webinar will dig into best practices for resolving the many complexities of OAuth 2.0.
The webinar will be presented by Prabath Siriwardena, WSO2 software architect and chair of WSO2’s integration technologies management committee, and Johann Nallathamby, WSO2 software engineer. Prabath plays a core role in developing the security functionality within WSO2’s platforms, and he is an Apache Software Foundation (ASF) committer, serving as a Project Management Committee (PMC) member of Apache Axis2 and actively contributing to various open source projects. Johann is a Sun Certified Java Programmer and is currently reading for his certification in management accountancy from the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants.

WSO2 webinar on August 22, will examine an ESB evaluation framework to demonstrate product similarities and strategic differences, and optimize SOA functionality
Palo Alto, CA – August 15, 2012 – An enterprise service bus (ESB) can help IT integration teams to implement service-oriented architecture (SOA) best practices and solve SOA anti-patterns of isolation, uniqueness and duplication. However, most teams do not develop evaluation use cases across all architectural attributes because they are difficult to measure. Instead, teams often focus on easy, identifiable product features that miss key design and deployment considerations. To help IT organizations strengthen their evaluation process, WSO2 will conduct a webinar on how to approach an ESB evaluation framework.
The one-hour technical session, “WSO2 Advantage Webinar: ESB Evaluation Framework," is being held twice on Wednesday, August 22: 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. PDT for the Americas and 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. GMT for Europe and Asia-Pacific. For more information, visit http://wso2.org/library/webinars/2012/08/wso2-advantage-webinar-esb-evaluation-framework.
The webinar will explore how to develop a comprehensive evaluation framework that considers business requirements, constraints, and technology strategy. The proposed ESB evaluation framework will demonstrate product similarities and strategic differences for IT professionals to consider, helping to ensure that an ESB meets their organization's needs today and in the future.
Webinar presenter Chris Haddad is WSO2 vice president of technology evangelism. Chris works closely with developers, architects, and C-level executives to increase WSO2 technology adoption, improve the middleware platform, and maximize customer value. Previously, he was a vice president at the Burton Group and Gartner where he led research teams in advising Fortune 500 enterprise organizations and technology infrastructure vendors on adoption strategies, architecture, product selection, governance, and organizational alignment.

Still divided regarding role, effectiveness, and necessity of QA teams
Tel-Aviv, August 15, 2012 – Typemock, (http://www.typemock.com/) the leading provider and pioneer of easy unit testing solutions, announced today that both software developers and QA believe that software developers need to test their own code, according to the results of their new survey. Software developers and QA testers are divided over the effectiveness of and necessity for QA teams, with developers wanting to play a bigger role in testing. The survey participants consisted of about 50 percent developers and 50 percent QA testers.
Developer testing is increasingly important as software is released quicker and with higher stakes. This has led to a change as companies embrace Agile, rapid development practices to ensure that they can release working software with few defects in minimal time. Almost all survey respondents agreed that developers must test the software they are coding before handing it off to QA. Respondents also noted that QA teams are not effective in finding most bugs, with almost half of the respondents claiming that QA finds 10 percent or less of the critical bugs in development.
When asked what the biggest value of QA is in software development, the majority of respondents said either that QA offers an extra set of eyes or tests user functionality. There was tremendous support for QA continuing manual testing, while arguing that developers need to play a bigger role in automated testing during the development process. Automated developer testing solutions give developers the ability to catch bugs they would otherwise miss and ensure working software - the paradigm of Agile software development.
“Classic waterfall QA testing is increasingly being phased out of software companies,” said Eli Lopian, CEO of Typemock. “Modern developers now have the right tools and processes to catch and correct bugs more effectively while in the development phase. Agile testing, with professional testers and developers working together, on the same team, and with developers engaging in quality practices such as unit testing, leads to high quality software being released on time.” This recent survey showed that software developers testing their own code is also something that both developers and software quality testers want.
About Typemock
The Isolator tool family enables easy unit testing of any .NET or C/C++ code (including legacy code and unwritten code).
Typemock was conceived in 2004 to help programmers become Agile through easy unit testing. Since the launch of the first version of Typemock Isolator in 2006, thousands of companies around the world use Typemock tools to make unit testing easy and to prevent bugs. Typemock users are developers from a wide range of sectors – such as defense, medical, and finance – that demand exceptionally high standards of quality and minimum bugs.

08-01-2012 – Tampa, Florida - Perpetuum Software launches WPF Viewer for Reporting Services, a native WPF component intended for displaying MS SQL Server Reporting Services reports in WPF applications.
“SQL Server Reporting Services is extremely popular among corporate developers, since it is a standard tool used for generating reports in companies of all sizes. It’s natural that they want to be able to use it on all platforms, including Silverlight and WPF. Since Microsoft Corp. doesn’t hurry up with development of some compatibility path between these technologies, we decided to make lives of SSRS developers easier and announce WPF Viewer for Reporting Services”, states Mikhail Payson, CTO at Perpetuum Software.
WPF Viewer for Reporting Services represents Reporting Services reports in native XAML format making it possible to add control to any WPF application. The reports are generated in vector format so that they can be scaled without loss of quality. Users can manipulate reports just like in native Reporting Services viewer: scroll, pan, zoom, export to all formats available in Reporting Services, drill through and drill down the reports, use parameters, and even print reports as HTML and XAML or send to physical printer.
WPF Viewer for Reporting Services is completely customizable. Developers can setup viewer appearance to fit corporate style. The product can be easily localized to any language to address cultural needs.
This is a very convenient solution, as developers don’t need to look for or think over workarounds of how to combine SSRS and WPF. No need to move to other reporting tool (which also takes much time to evaluate and examine a new product) and re-design hundreds of reports using this new product they didn’t get used to. No such problem exists with WPF Viewer for Reporting Services, now it’s possible to integrate SSRS in WPF applications with just few mouse clicks.
WPF Viewer for Reporting Services trial download is available here:

One-day workshop on August 29, will examine best practices for delivering RESTful APIs and creating new monetization models by exposing APIs on a vertical PaaS
Palo Alto, CA – August 14, 2012 – Increasingly, managed APIs are at the heart of enterprise IT strategies for extending business processes and services to customers, partners, and other groups within the organization. In a one-day workshop for IT architects and developers, WSO2 http://wso2.com) will examine:
* Best practices for delivering RESTful APIs, dynamic API service levels, and API governance.
* New monetization models that can be achieved by deploying a vertical platform-as-a-service (PaaS) and exposing business APIs to partners and customers.
* How to create an “AppFactory” to host partner applications while maintaining compliance, monetization, customer ownership, and project visibility.
The one-day workshop, “Deliver Your Business as an API and Create an AppFactory,” will be held in San Diego on Wednesday, August 29, from 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. To register, visit http://wso2.com/events/workshops/2012-august-san-diego-deliver-your-business-as-an-api-and-create-an-app-factory-workshop.
Maximizing API Assets
The workshop is designed for IT architects and developers seeking to build effective RESTful APIs that can be used across different business domains. It will explore how to expose heterogeneous back-end assets—such as services, data, processes and rules—as RESTful APIs in a quick, simple and architecturally sound manner, using the WSO2 API Management Platform based on award-winning WSO2 Carbon enterprise middleware (http://wso2.com/products/carbon).
The workshop also will examine how organizations can go beyond foundational use cases to address API lifecycle development activities, monetize API assets, and offer personalized behavior across multiple business channels. Additionally, the event will preview the WSO2 AppFactory http://wso2.com/solutions/app-factory, currently in beta, and how it can be used with the WSO2 Stratos cloud middleware platform (http://wso2.com/cloud/stratos). Among the use cases explored will be how to create domain-specific PaaS environments, connect development with deployment, and present a partner ecosystem platform that offers personalized digital business behavior across multiple business channels and partners.
The workshop will be organized along six topics.
Beyond the APIs: API Store and Your Business as an API will discuss how enterprise API patterns can encourage API consumption and reuse. An API store process pattern enables potential consumers to discover APIs, match business requirements, subscribe to APIs, and gain access credentials. The “Your Business as an API” pattern delivers a cloud-based API hosting infrastructure, which augments the API by enabling multi-tenancy, self-service configuration, billing and metering, and control. Overall, this pattern covers how a vertical PaaS takes business APIs into the enterprise and out to partners, suppliers and customers.
Beyond the API: API Architecture and API Governance will look at how to meet business requirements by designing an elegant, consumable RESTful API using basic REST methods. The approach will follow REST methods, principles, and best practices for designing and building an API. It also will address how to enhance an API using RESTful techniques—such as Hypermedia as the Engine of Application State (HATEOS) and Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) types. The session also will cover API governance basics.
Creating REST APIs will examine how to publish RESTful APIs that are exposed with a REST binding by using the Java REST API, JAX-RS, as well as how the WSO2 Application Server can be used to host JAX-RS.
Promoting, Managing, and Protecting APIs will review how the new WSO2 API Manager (http://wso2.com/products/api-manager) exposes APIs, binds wire protocols, implements Open Authorization (OAuth) authentication, monitors API usage, and monetizes API activity. The session will look at how developers can rapidly find, subscribe to, and evaluate APIs. It also will highlight how API providers can secure, protect and monitor API resource interactions.
API Adoption Plan will explore how to develop a pragmatic adoption plan to successfully build, publish, govern, configure, personalize and monetize APIs.
AppFactory Acceleration will present common software delivery and ecosystem challenges, and explain how an environment that connects software delivery gaps can accelerate business delivery. Additionally, the session will demonstrate how an AppFactory providing a domain-specific PaaS can increase business agility.

Banking leader to revolutionize customer service levels and rapidly roll-out new revenue channels with Fiorano middleware integration layer
(Palo Alto, CA) — Fiorano Software (www.fiorano.com), a leader in enterprise integration and messaging middleware solutions, announced today that the Fiorano ESB has been deployed by Federal Bank, a major Indian commercial bank with a network exceeding 1000 branches, to streamline its operations and accelerate roll- out of value added services through multiple channels.
“Competing in the banking and financial services market today requires cutting edge technology, said Mr. K.P. Sunny, Head of Information Technology at Federal Bank. “ Customers are no longer content to wait so responsiveness, accuracy and customer service delineates the leaders from the laggards. Federal Bank made a conscious decision to invest in Fiorano ESB as its solution of choice. The power of the product is in its architectural simplicity which allows the Bank to put in place a flexible architecture that will scale linearly and allow business decisions to be speedily implemented at the IT level,” he added.
Federal Bank is using over 30 retail banking related applications from various vendors including Infosys’ Core banking platform FINACLE running on mixture of hardware including IBM AIX servers. As part of their expansion plans to increase the number of value added services to its customers, the bank wanted to provide near real-time availability of foreign exchange remittances through SWIFT and had ambitious plans to build a multichannel payment gateway, besides expanding their kiosk facilities and ATM network.
After a detailed evaluation, the bank concluded that many of the offerings from traditional large stack vendors, though feature rich, were not simple and cohesive. Implementation and deployment with such traditional stacks would necessarily require significant custom coding and extensive use of consulting services leading to a high cost structure.
After conducting a rigorous proof-of-concept, the Architectural and IT team at Federal Bank picked Fiorano as the preferred solution that met all of its criteria. Fiorano was selected over larger traditional stack solutions primarily for its ease of use, low learning curve, near linear scalability, software-based high availability, reliability, security and error handling capabilities. The end result will be massive savings in maintenance of their current integration code.
Using the Fiorano ESB to integrate their core banking infrastructure, Infosys FINACLE and multiple retail channels including their SWIFT partners, the bank can now rapidly roll out a myriad of value added services through multiple delivery channels including ATMs, kiosks, hand-held devices, mobile and internet. Fiorano’s architecture supports an incremental deployment model, enabling deployments to be more modular and standardized, less risky and less expensive.
“With readily available, reasonably priced consulting services in India there is always a temptation to try and continue custom development for every project with a point-to-point style of integration,” said Sunny. “The question is how big you want to be and how fast you want to grow. The largest and best banks have shown that a solid middleware infrastructure is the secret to building an agile bank ready to roll out any new service that the market asks for. Revenue acceleration is only possible through cutting edge technology. This is the bottom line for us and we have chosen to go with Fiorano for precisely this reason,” he concluded.

Paris, FR — August 9th, 2012 — SoftFluent announces today that CodeFluent Entities and its Visual Studio integrated graphical editor will run within the final version of Visual Studio before August 31st 2012. CodeFluent Entities was updated to following the look & feel of Visual Studio 2012.
CodeFluent Entities allows developers to generate components such as scripts (e.g. T-SQL, PL/SQL), code (C#, VB), web services (e.g. WCF, ASMX, JSON) and UIs (e.g.ASP.NET, SharePoint, WPF, Silverlight). The code generation process is model-first and continuous: from your declarative model, a meta-model will be inferred which code generators will then translate into code. Over 20 code generators (a.k.a. ‘producers’) are provided ‘out of the box’ and that can be combined to obtain your own application following your desired architecture, using your desired technologies.
Since your application development is driven from this model, your business logic is decoupled from the technology and allows you to absorb changes faster and smoother: apply changes in your model to update all your layers consistently or add/switch technology by changing your used code generators. CodeFluent Entities is designed for the .NET platform and empowers users to streamline developments on major Microsoft platforms and technologies such as SQL Server, C#, VB.NET, WCF, ASP.NET, WPF, Windows 8, SharePoint, SQL Azure, third-party databases and more.
“Aligning closely to Microsoft Visual Studio 2012, the latest version of Microsoft’s integrated development environment (IDE), we are demonstrating our commitment to the Microsoft developer community to help them keep up with the quick innovation pace” said Daniel Cohen-Zardi, SoftFluent Chief Executive Officer. “Embracing the upcoming Windows 8 wave, CodeFluent Entities already implements a similar design style and will help you generate both .NET and WinRT applications with a consistent approach.”
“Core to Visual Studio 2012 is its focus on integrating teams, streamlining development and providing developers a complete tool box to build leading applications efficiently," said Tom Lindeman, Director of the Visual Studio Industry Program at Microsoft Corp. "SoftFluent's innovative CodeFluent Entities, released in time with our new products, reduces the effort required by developers to stay up to date with technology and remain productive."
About SoftFluent
Created in 2005, SoftFluent is a software engineering company. Its CodeFluent Entities software factory generates ready-to-use components starting from a both industrial and pragmatic modeling approach.

WSO2 webinar on August 15, examines a cloud architectural approach for distributed organizations to optimize scalability, minimize costs, and ensure governance and security
Palo Alto, CA – August 8, 2012 – Today eGovernment promises a means for cost effectively delivering information and enabling transactions among the citizens residing within a local geography, as well as the different governmental groups supporting them. However, the role of eGovernment has been limited by the inherent cost and complexity of integrating and managing traditional server-based systems. To address this challenge, WSO2 will present a free webinar on how government agencies can harness the cloud to radically scale the delivery of services while minimizing the expenses related to IT infrastructure, application development and deployment, and operations.
The one-hour technical session, “Moving eGovernment to the Cloud," is being held twice on Wednesday, August 15: 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. PDT for the Americas and 10:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. GMT for Europe and Asia-Pacific. For more information, visit http://wso2.org/library/webinars/2012/08/moving-egovernment-cloud.
Moving eGovernment to the Cloud
The webinar will explore an architectural approach for maintaining a central platform-as-a-service (PaaS) that works in concert with local private cloud platforms to efficiently leverage computing resources across platforms and locations—while ensuring proper governance. The session also will examine how this architectural model works equally well in the government and in the private sector among enterprises with multiple locations.
A related white paper, “Moving eGovernment to the Cloud,” can be downloaded at http://wso2.com/whitepapers/moving-egovernment-to-the-cloud.
The webinar will be presented by Chintana Wilamuna, WSO2 senior technical lead on the WSO2 solution architecture team, who focuses on infrastructure development. Chintana is an Apache Stonehenge committer, who specializes in cloud computing, distributed and parallel computing, high scalable architectures, programming languages, and functional programming. Additionally, he started the WSO2 Web Services Frameworks for Ruby and Perl.

Over 140 developers applied to join WSO2 API Manager Beta Program and experience easy API Store access while ensuring control over how customers and partners use APIs
Palo Alto, CA – August 6, 2012 – Managed APIs can provide a door into an enterprise’s business capabilities, enabling new opportunities for monetization and ecosystem development by extending processes and services to customers, partners, and other groups within the organization. However, the cost and complexity of using traditional API management solutions have raised significant barriers to adoption. Today, WSO2 breaks down those barriers with the launch of WSO2 API Manager, the first 100% open source API management product that combines easy, managed API access with full API governance and analysis (http://wso2.com/products/api-manager/).
General availability of WSO2 API Manager follows an oversubscribed beta program, which attracted more than 140 applicants seeking to take advantage of the product’s innovation in managing APIs. WSO2 API Manager reinvents the API management experience by providing:
* The first full-featured open source API management product, expanding the benefits of managed APIs to enterprises of all sizes.
* The API Store, which lets IT organizations set up their own Apple or Google Marketplace-like store where developers can easily subscribe to and consume APIs.
* Simple installation of a single download versus the multiple product installations required with some API management solutions.
* Full support of the API lifecycle, not just an API key approval workflow.
* Secure authorization of subscribed applications via the OAuth 2.0 key model, providing a key management and revocation model for subscribing applications.
* Throttling and service-level agreement (SLA) management based on the application key, which is an important approach for managing SLAs and monetizing API offerings.
* Easy expansion of features, such as business activity monitoring (BAM), as part of WSO2 Carbon, the industry’s first fully componentized OSGi-compliant enterprise middleware platform.
* Proven scalability in a 1.0 product, since WSO2 API Manager uses the same core technologies and runtime of WSO2 Carbon already being used by enterprises around the world (http://wso2.com/about/customers?032012a), including a Global 1000 company that is handling more than 1 billion API calls per day (http://wso2.com/casestudies/ebay-uses-100-open-source-wso2-esb-to-process-more-than-1-billion-transactions-per-day?032012a).
“Today there is a huge divide between the enterprises that are driving revenues, customer loyalty, and organizational efficiencies through managed APIs and the many more that are not,” said Dr. Sanjiva Weerawarana, WSO2 founder and CEO. “We have been working closely with IT architects and developers to help them close that gap. The result is our 100% open source WSO2 API Manager, which democratizes API management by making it affordable to acquire the software, easy to control APIs and manage the API lifecycle, and simple to find and subscribe to APIs.”
WSO2 API Manager Simplifies Developer Experience
The debut version of WSO2 API Manager is a full featured API management product that provides complete API lifecycle governance—from creating to publishing, deprecating and retiring APIs. IT organizations can publish both production and sandbox keys for APIs to enable easy developer testing, and developer interactions with APIs can be managed via comments and ratings. Governance is complemented by capabilities for monitoring API use, performance and SLA compliance. Secure authorization of APIs is provided using the OAuth 2.0 standard for key management.
Analytics and metrics can be viewed by user, API, and more. Enterprises can define their own key performance indicators (KPIs) on top of the ones provided out-of-the-box with WSO2 API Manager, as well as easily plug-in the API analytic data from their own existing reporting engines to create dashboards against the analytical data. Additionally, organizations can plug-in their billing engines and use them in combination with monitoring in WSO2 API Manager to enable monetization of their APIs.
The API Store in WSO2 API Manager allows enterprises to create a graphical experience similar to the Android Marketplace or Apple App Store that makes it easy for internal users, customers and partners to access APIs. With the API Store, developers can browse APIs by provider, tags or name; self-register to the developer community; subscribe APIs and manage those subscriptions on a per-application basis; and browse API documentation or download helpers for easy consumption. At the same time, enterprise IT organizations can manage subscriptions on a per-developer level, as well as offer subscriptions at different service tiers based on expected levels of use. Because WSO2 API Manager is highly customizable, organizations also can create skins for the API Store that align with their corporate or product branding.
“The online store is such a successful model that has been widely embraced by consumers. It was an obvious step to extend it to developers,” said Paul Fremantle, WSO2 co-founder and CTO. “The kind of power and ease of use that our WSO2 API Store brings to the enterprise has the potential to radically change how people build out a B2B ecosystem.”
WSO2 API Manager supports SOAP, REST, JSON and XML-style APIs, and it enables one-click deployment to the API gateway for immediate publishing. This gateway within WSO2 API Manager provides extremely high-performance pass-through message routing with low latency; it is horizontally scalable with easy deployment into a cluster using the proven routing infrastructure, and it scales to support millions of developers and other users. The API gateway supports API authentication with OAuth 2.0, and it enables IT organizations to enforce rate limits and throttling policies for APIs by consumer.
Developer Community Cites WSO2 API Manager Advantages
JDM’s experience with the WSO2 API Manager beta software has been extremely positive from the very beginning,” said Marco Carnevale, chief architect at JDM Systems Consultants, Inc. (http://www.jdmconsulting.com/). “The API Store provides developers an excellent place to discover new APIs and learn about their capabilities, and we particularly liked the way we could control and version the published APIs independently from the API implementations. Overall, the WSO2 API Manager is an innovative, useful, and feature-rich application, which we will continue to utilize in the future with our new and existing customers.”
“I was looking for a full open source API platform tool, and it appears WSO2 has what I was looking for,” said Kin Lane, founder of API Evangelist (http://www.apievangelist.com). “WSO2 API Manager is a simple, easy to understand API platform, but has all the hardened enterprise goodness many developers will be looking for when it comes to security, governance, policy enforcement, etc. I also like that it acknowledges how many APIs are not born out of technical departments, and it allows for duel ownership of any API from the technical and business disciplines—which is very important to the success of an API.”
Availability and Support
WSO2 API Manager is available today as a software download, and the WSO2 Cloud Virtual Machine running on the Amazon Elastic Computing Cloud (EC2), Linux Kernel Virtual Machine (KVM), and VMware ESX will be released within the next week. WSO2 API Manager also will be available in a multi-tenant cloud version with the next release of the WSO2 Stratos cloud middleware platform in Fall 2012. As a fully open source solution released under the Apache License 2.0, it does not carry any licensing fees.
WSO2 API Manager is backed by a world-class technical team in which the experts that helped create the software provide support, leading to direct and immediate access to the people with in-depth knowledge of the middleware. WSO2 service and support options include evaluation support, a special QuickStartSM consulting program, development support, and production support.

New case study from MadCap Software examines how Compressus Inc. has streamlined content development and publishing and simplified compliance by replacing two legacy tools with MadCap Flare
La Jolla, CA, USA – August 1, 2012 – MadCap Software, Inc. (www.madcapsoftware.com), the leader in multi-channel content authoring and a showcase company for Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) Visual Studio and Microsoft XPS, today announced that it has published a new case study on Compressus Inc. A leader in digital medical solutions software, Compressus is using MadCap Flare to create online Help and PDF print user manuals while realizing a four-fold reduction in project time. The full Compressus case study is available at: http://www.madcapsoftware.com/casestudy/Compressus.aspx.
Compressus delivers MEDxConnect software, the first solution that indexes, integrates and routes all relevant patient medical information to the healthcare professional in real time, thus dramatically improving physician efficiency, reducing enterprise costs and increasing patient safety. Recently the company replaced its legacy authoring tools—one for print, one for online Help—with MadCap Flare for single-source multi-channel publishing (http://www.madcapsoftware.com/products/flare/overview.aspx). Today, Compressus is using Flare to produce print manuals and online Help from the same project, ensure the consistency of content and provide the necessary backups to support compliance, and publish Quick Response (QR) codes for instant access to answers on the Web. Among key benefits Compressus has realized:
* In the first three projects alone, content reuse and single-sourcing have cut project time from two months to one week.
* Single-sourcing and one-button back-up facilitate annual compliance check-ups to address US mandates, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), international standards, and Compressus company best practices.
* The ability to run multiple versions of Flare-based online Help supports the option to revert back to a previous product and documentation.
* Easy creation of QR codes enables wider use of codes to help end users quickly reach the Web information they need.
* Tight integration between Flare and MadCap Lingo translation management software will facilitate future translation and localization.
* MadCap Platinum Support shortens learning curve for the MadCap Flare platform, providing a rapid gain in productivity and faster return on investment.
Flare Users at Compressus Share Their Experiences
“Madcap Flare has enabled the team to expedite updates in an accurate manner with the required backup and documentation, increasing productivity,” observes Janine Broda, Compressus chief marketing officer. Looking ahead, she adds, “We envision providing end users with an online knowledge base with all of our documentation in a single location. Madcap Flare is a solution that can readily adjust with our future market requirements.”
“The ease of documentation conversion is critical to our business,” explains Laszlo Gasztonyi, Compressus chief technology officer. “Madcap has provided our technical documentation team with flexible tools and the ability to accurately manage our operations, including the support of the development, deployment and support activities of our products, while maintaining compliance with standards and regulations.”
With ‘Save Project’, I click one button, and Flare creates a template from a completed work, which allows me to be instantly halfway to two-thirds done with the project,” says Pam Coca, Compressus documentation manager. “I also love having the QR code as a snippet because it is the epitome of single-sourcing. If any of the support information changes, I just edit the snippet, and the content updates itself.“
“Compressus is an innovator in delivering software that seamlessly integrates the diverse output of medical IT solutions to provide health professionals with a 360-degree view of their patients,” said Anthony Olivier, MadCap founder and CEO. We are thrilled by Compressus’ similar innovation in using our state-of-the-art MadCap Flare to publish QR codes that give these users convenient and immediate access to information they need on the Web. For our medical supply and healthcare customers, meeting strict US federal requirements, such as HIPAA, and international standards, such as those from the EU, are just as important as increasing productivity. By using our software, Compressus is a shining example of how companies can benefit from rapid gains in productivity, information continuity, and enhanced compliance to effectively address the complex documentation issues faced by the healthcare industry.”

WSO2 webinar on August 7, examines an architecture design framework and TCO methodology for optimizing a cloud-enabled deployment model
Palo Alto, CA – July 31, 2012 – When adopting a platform-as-a-service (PaaS), IT professionals need to determine how to pay for the new technology, environments and tooling that will be required to support this implementation. A cloud friendly deployment model—one that is based on shared resource pools instead of traditional middleware platform silos—will reduce the operations expense and minimize the PaaS investment cost. To address these issues, WSO2 will present a free webinar that describes an architecture decision framework, a total cost of ownership (TCO) methodology, and example scenarios highlighting how to pay for PaaS adoption.
The one-hour technical session, “Paying for Platform-as-a-Service," is being held on Tuesday, August 7, from 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. PDT. For more information, visit http://wso2.org/library/webinars/2012/08/paying-for-platform-as-a-service.
The webinar will be presented by Chris Haddad, WSO2 vice president of technology evangelism, who works closely with developers, architects, and C-level executives to increase WSO2 technology adoption, improve the middleware platform, and maximize customer value. He has been advising Fortune 500 companies and charting a vision toward “Cloud 2020,” both in his current role and as a former research vice president at the Burton Group and Gartner.

Beta has additional enhancements regarding multi-level nested files and emails; dtSearch proprietary document filters also support a wide range of web-ready file types, dynamic website data, and databases
dtSearch Corp., a leading supplier of enterprise and developer text retrieval along with document filters, announces beta testing of Version 7.70 of the dtSearch product line. The new version adds multiple improvements to the document filters spanning the dtSearch product line. For customers in need of data parsing, conversion and extraction only, the dtSearch Engine APIs (native 64-bit/32-bit, Win/Linux C++, Java and .NET through 4.x) also make the document filters available for separate OEM licensing.
Document Filters. dtSearch’s proprietary document filters support a broad range of data types (many of which already include combined image and text support):
• “Office” documents: MS Office, OpenOffice, RTF, PDF, etc.; the beta also adds support for Japanese Ichitaro documents
• Emails: MS Exchange, Outlook, Thunderbird, etc., all with nested attachments
• Compression formats: ZIP, RAR, GZIP/TAR, etc.
• Web-ready data: HTML, XML/XSL and PDF—all already with full image (in addition to text) support
• Dynamic data: PHP, ASP.NET, SharePoint, etc.— all already with full image (in addition to text) support
• Databases: SQL including BLOB data (through the dtSearch Engine APIs), MS Access, XBASE, XML, CSV, etc.
The document filters support parsing of all of the above data types as well as text extraction and/or conversion to HTML as required for browser display with highlighted hits.
Embedded Image Enhancements. The new beta extends the document filters to add image support to Word (.doc/.docx), PowerPoint (.ppt/.pptx), Excel, (.xls/.xlsx), Access (.mdb/accdb), RTF, and email files including Thunderbird (mbox/.eml), and Outlook (.pst/.msg) files. The beta displays these formats showing highlighted hits in context with both text and now images.
Multi-Level Nested File Enhancements. The dtSearch document filters also support documents and images in multi-level nested configurations. For example, the beta would support not only viewing images in an email file, but also images in a PowerPoint embedded in a Word document attached as a zipped file to an email message. A new “object extraction” API lets developers navigate through the structure of each embedded object as a hierarchy, and optionally extract each object.
Spider. The Spider works with local and remote, static and dynamic web content. Hit-highlighted searching can span any level of site depth, across any number of public and private or secure sites, including support for log-ins and forms-based authentication. The Spider is built into the dtSearch product line, and accessible through a .NET API for programmers.
Terabyte Indexer. dtSearch enterprise and developer products can index over a terabyte of text in a single index, spanning directories, databases, online data, and emails. The products can create an unlimited number of indexes, and simultaneously search them. Indexed search time is typically less than a second, even across terabytes of data. Online indexed searching operates in a “stateless” environment, supporting unlimited concurrent search threads.
Search Options. The dtSearch product line includes 25+ full-text and fielded data search types, including special forensics search options. dtSearch products offer federated or distributed searching with integrated relevancy ranking across any number of different data repositories. The dtSearch Engine APIs also support faceted searching and other advanced data classification objects.
International Language Support. dtSearch products support all Unicode languages, including both right-to-left languages, and special Chinese/Japanese/Korean character options.
The dtSearch Engine. The dtSearch Engine for Win & .NET and the dtSearch Engine for Linux make available dtSearch document filters and instant searching for a wide range of Internet, Intranet and other commercial applications. The SDKs include native 64-bit and 32-bit C++, Java and .NET (through 4.x) APIs. For over a hundred developer case studies, please see www.dtsearch.com/casestudies.html. In addition to standard OEM licenses, the SDK also makes available the document filters for separate OEM licensing.
Other dtSearch Products. The new release also covers dtSearch Web with Spider for quickly publishing instantly searchable data to an Internet or Intranet site, dtSearch Network with Spider for instantly searching across a network, dtSearch Publish for publishing searchable data to portable media, and dtSearch Desktop with Spider for desktop search.

With the help of CodePorting C#2Java you can fix small changes by editing your code in source code editor. CodePorting provides built-in source code viewer with syntax highlighter which enables you to read and access your code from anywhere, everywhere. With the help of this feature you can fix your code by using your iPad or smart phone while you are travelling or away from your machine.
In C#, enum keyword is used to declare enumeration which consists of different types of name constants. This list is called enumerator list. Each enumeration element contains underlying type, default is int. This underlying type is used to decide how much storage should be allocated to each enumerator.
Let me give you an example to show you how Codeporting engine converts C# enum to java.
C# code:
namespace CsPorter.Examples.Convert.Enums
{
/// <summary>
/// Enum summary.
/// </summary>
public enum Example0
{
/// <summary>
/// The first.
/// </summary>
One,
/// <summary>
/// The second.
/// </summary>
Two,
//Third.
Three
}
internal enum Example1: byte
{
OneByte,
TwoByte,
ThreeByte
}
internal enum Example2{
One,
Two,
Three
}
internal enum Example3 {One, Two, Three}
}
Ported Java code:
package CsPorter.Examples.Convert.Enums;
// **** THIS CODE IS AUTO PORTED FROM C# TO JAVA USING CODEPORTING.COM TECHNOLOGY ****
import com.codeporting.csharp2java.java.Enum;
/**
* <p>
* Enum summary.
* </p>
*/
public /*enum*/ final class Example0 extends Enum
{
private Example0(){}
/// <summary>
/// The first.
/// </summary>
public static final int ONE = 0;
/// <summary>
/// The second.
/// </summary>
public static final int TWO = 1;
//Third.
public static final int THREE = 2;
static {
Enum.register(new Enum.SimpleEnum(Example0.class, Integer.class) {{
addConstant("ONE", ONE);
addConstant("TWO", TWO);
addConstant("THREE", THREE);
}});
}
}
/*enum*/ final class Example1/*: byte*/ extends Enum
{
private Example01(){}
public static final byte ONE_BYTE = 0;
public static final byte TWO_BYTE = 1;
public static final byte THREE_BYTE = 2;
static {
Enum.register(new Enum.SimpleEnum(Example01.class, Byte.class) {{
addConstant("ONE_BYTE", ONE_BYTE);
addConstant("TWO_BYTE", TWO_BYTE);
addConstant("THREE_BYTE", THREE_BYTE);
}});
}
}
/*enum*/ final class Example2 extends Enum{
private Example2(){}
public static final int ONE = 0;
public static final int TWO = 1;
public static final int THREE = 2;
static {
Enum.register(new Enum.SimpleEnum(Example2.class, Integer.class) {{
addConstant("ONE", ONE);
addConstant("TWO", TWO);
addConstant("THREE", THREE);
}});
}
}
/*enum*/ final class Example3 extends Enum {
private Example3(){}
public static final int ONE = 0;
public static final int TWO = 1; public static final int THREE = 2;
static {
Enum.register(new Enum.SimpleEnum(Example3.class, Integer.class) {{
addConstant("ONE", ONE);
addConstant("TWO", TWO);
addConstant("THREE", THREE);
}});
}
}
It is clear from the above example that Codeporting C#2Java engine uses final classes to replace enum. Although java language has enums but Codeporting converts enum to integer constant because enum appeared in java v1.5 only and before java v5 the acceptable way to translate enum is by using classes with integer constant.
Newly added articles and documentation pages
- Convert CSharp enums to Java using CodePorting App
- CodePorting has converted more than 5 Million lines of C# code to Java

About CodePorting C#2Java App
CodePorting helps you make your .NET applications cross platform compatible and allows migrating your .NET solutions, projects and files into Java in the cloud. Other than speed and accuracy of conversion; port your C# code directly either by uploading .cs files contained in a .zip file or import directly from popular version control repositories like GIT, Mercurial HG and SubVersion. You can also download a Microsoft Visual Studio plugin and convert C# code in the real time without leaving the development environment. You may also build your own customized code conversion applications using CodePorting APIs.

WSO2 webinar on August 2, examines how to build cloud-enabled Web applications and services using the WSO2 Application Server and WSO2 Developer Studio
Palo Alto, CA – July 24, 2012 – An elastic cloud infrastructure allows businesses to rapidly deploy applications while minimizing costs. However, the traditional application servers deployed in most organizations do not meet the requirements necessary for them to move to the cloud. What enterprises need instead are application servers that support a wide range of deployment options, including installation on public and private clouds in addition to standalone uses. To facilitate this effort, WSO2 will present a free webinar on how developers can optimize their business scalability with the cloud-enabled WSO2 Application Server (http://wso2.com/products/application-server).
The one-hour technical session, “WSO2 Intro Webinar - Scale your Business with the Cloud-Enabled WSO2 Application Server," is being held twice on Thursday, August 2: 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. PDT for the Americas and 10:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. GMT for Europe and Asia-Pacific. For more information, visit http://wso2.org/library/webinars/2012/07/wso2-intro-webinar-scale-your-business-cloud-enabled-wso2-application-server.
Scaling Your Business with the Cloud
The webinar will begin with an architectural overview of the WSO2 Application Server, which is part of the WSO2 Stratos cloud middleware platform that provides cloud-native features, such as self-provisioning, multi-tenancy, elasticity and metering. The session then will examine how to develop Web applications and Web services together with the WSO2 Developer Studio. Additionally, the webinar will cover key features of the WSO2 Application Server, including:
* Multi-tenancy support
* Lazy loading and resource sharing
* Dependency management and class loading
* Clustering and session replication
* Seamless integration with the WSO2 SOA platform, user management, WSO2 Governance Registry, and Jaggery integrated developer environment (IDE).
The webinar will be presented by Sagara Gunathunga, WSO2 technical lead and a member of the WSO2 development technologies team, who focuses on the WSO2 Application Server. An expert in Web services and distributed systems, Sagara is vice president of the Apache Web Services project, a Project Management Committee (PMC) member, and a committer on a number of Apache projects.

In midsummer Devart Team is not resting and works up a sweat to deliver you the most up-to-date and profound product. So here it is, the new Entity Developer 4.5 with support for named queries and stored procedures in NHibernate models.
New version of Entity Developer extends NHibernate mapping support, now providing an opportunity to create methods from SQL queries. For this named SQL queries feature of NHibernate is used. Entity Developer interprets named SQL queries as methods of the model, for which a helper class containing the corresponding methods will be generated.
Entity Developer allows creating methods returning scalar or entity results or no result. The named SQL queries feature can also be used for creating methods calling stored routines. For stored routines, you don't need to write SQL manually, just specify the name of the routine and Entity Developer will generate the query automatically.
Developers who use Database First Approach will gain even more with the new Entity Developer, e.g. an opportunity to generate methods from stored routines just by selecting them in the Create Model Wizard when creating model. It is also possible to create a method in the model by dragging the corresponding stored procedure or function from Database Explorer to the diagram area or in the Model Explorer window. Moreover, with the help of Update From Database Wizard it is possible to add new and modify the existing methods in the model.
To demonstrate the simplicity and utility of the implementation and use of named SQL queries along with many other kinds of NHibernate mapping, Devart Team presents NHibernate Mapping Samples application, which demonstrates 50 different mapping cases, the way they are mapped using both fluent and XML mapping, and their usage. Visit the NHibernate Mapping Samples blog article to read more about this application and download it.
Pricing and availability
Download and evaluate the new version of Entity Developer on the Download Page.
For purchasing Entity Developer visit product's Ordering Page. The price for a single license starts at $99.95.
To provide feedback on the new version visit Devart forums or use a contact form. There is also a feedback form, and Devart Team is always glad to hear users' comments and take into account their development needs.Feel free to share ideas about new Entity Developer features, that can be done on theUserVoice.

In my Previous Blog I have told you that CodePorting C#2Java Application uses a powerful and absolute parsing engine. It can parse and converts thousands of lines of code from C# to Java in just few seconds. Parsing engine is fully compatible to International standards like ECMA 334 and 335.It supports syntax and significs of latest version for Microsoft C# language and can easily translate it to Java.
Following are some features of CodePorting Parsing Engine:
• Provide most accurate conversion
• Preserves code formatting
• Support customized library mapping
• Its extensible library mapping allows you to add maps for third party libraries
• It has already mapped thousands of .Net libraries and converted to java and count is still going on
• Requires no installation just sign-in and start converting C# code to Java
• It converts your code instantly, just paste your code and it will be converted in seconds
• Fastest conversion, converts mega projects with million of lines of code in few minutes.
• Support projects/solutions from all versions of Visual Studio(2002, 2003, 2005, 2008, 2010)
• Automatically handle partial classes and partial methods
• Input code formatting does not matter, can convert badly formatted code easily
• Automatically renames members to Java style
• Supports default arguments and automatic properties
• Supports complex language constructs like Out, Ref, multidimensional arrays, enums, lifted nullable types
In C# out keyword is used while passing some arguments by reference. Out is somewhat similar to ref keyword. The only difference is that ref requires variable that needed to be passed. Both out and ref are not available in Java. Lets learn how C#2Java engine handles them while converting code to Java.
The following code represents the example:
C# Code:
namespace C#2Java.Examples.Convert.LanguageConstructs.OutRef
{
public class Example26
{
//single-line statement
void Method()
{
int i;
do
MethodRef(out i);
while (true);
}
//workaround of above that can be autoported
void Method2()
{
int i;
bool ret;
do
{
MethodRef(out i);
ret = MethodRef(out i);
}
while (ret);
}
bool MethodRef(out int outI)
{
outI = 42;
return true;
}
}
}
Generated Java Code:
package C#2Java.Examples.Convert.LanguageConstructs.OutRef;
// ***** THIS CODE IS AUTO PORTED FROM C# TO JAVA USING CODEPORTING.COM TECHNOLOGY ******
public class Example26
{
//single-line statement
private void method()
{
int i = 0;
do
{
int[> referenceToI = { i };
methodRef(/*out*/ referenceToI);
i = referenceToI[0>;
}
while (true);
}
//workaround of above that can be autoported
private void method2()
{
int i = 0;
boolean ret;
do
{
int[> referenceToI = { i };
methodRef(/*out*/ referenceToI);
i = referenceToI[0>;
referenceToI[0> = i;
ret = methodRef(/*out*/ referenceToI);
i = referenceToI[0>;
}
while (ret);
}
private boolean methodRef(/*out*/ int[> outI)
{
outI[0> = 42;
return true;
}
}
It is clear from the above example that CodePorting Engine use java arrays where values are sent by reference. This perfectly imitates the functionality of the out and ref keywords.

This July Devart presents the new edition of LinqConnect – LinqConnect for Metro. Developers often face the situation when they have to create web services and data through them, because metro applications can not connect to databases directly. And many find it really inconvenient. New LinqConnect releases developers of the excess work. It offers an embedded database engine, based on SQLite, that allows Metro Style applications to store data in a fully relational database. Now XAML Metro applications can be developed with true ORM data access.
Moreover, LinqConnect allows using ADO.NET interface for working with data, which was not available for Metro before.
Storing data in a relational database provides developers a number of advantages - such as transactions, constraints, indexes, and generally provides higher performance and lesser file size. The use of relational transactional database also increases reliability of local data storage. Small and efficient, and at the same time powerful SQLite database engine together with ADO.NET and LINQ interfaces for data access make LinqConnect a perfect choice to store data locally in Metro applications.
Devart Team puts maximum efforts to facilitate developers work with our tools. See LinqConnect for Metro: Quick Start Guide, tutorial that shows how to use LinqConnect for working with data and to bind data to user interface elements, for more information.
Download
Download
Feel free to download LinqConnect and don't forget to provide feedback on the new version using Devart's forums or the contact form. There is also a feedback form, and Devart Team is always glad to have users comments and take into account their development needs.
Have any ideas about new LinqConnect features, go to UserVoice on Devart web-site.
