CodeGear(TM) JBuilder(R) 2007 Is Named Best Java Integrated Development Environment of the Year by InfoWorld

SCOTTS VALLEY, Calif.--(Business Wire)--Calling it "a very smooth, very robust IDE with many innovative
features," InfoWorld today named CodeGear JBuilder 2007 "Best Java
Integrated Development Environment" in its 2007 Technology of the Year
awards.

   JBuilder 2007 is an IDE built on the open source Eclipse
framework, which makes development of Java and Web-based collaborative
applications faster and more reliable. JBuilder 2007 combines the
advantages of the Eclipse framework with JBuilder's innovative rapid
application development (RAD) functionality, ease-of-use and
productivity, and collaborative capabilities that help developers and
organizations more effectively manage complex projects across
locations and teams.

   The InfoWorld awards recognize significant technologies of the
past year that promise to make the greatest impact on enterprise IT
strategies as well as the products that best exemplify the
implementation of those technologies. The InfoWorld Technology of the
Year awards are not open to outside nominations; only products
reviewed by InfoWorld's Test Center during the previous year are
eligible. The final selections are made by InfoWorld's Test Center
analysts and editors.

   "I found a very smooth, very robust IDE with many innovative
features. It's safe to say that CodeGear decided to throw everything
it had at this release -- and succeeded brilliantly," wrote Andrew
Binstock, senior contributing editor at InfoWorld. "...JBuilder feels
solid throughout -- a remarkable achievement given its status as a
first release on Eclipse."

   Binstock also praised CodeGear JBuilder 2007 for "a metrics
package that is more extensive than any I've seen in any IDE" and
"impressive collaborative features."

   Said CodeGear CEO Jim Douglas, "We'd like to thank InfoWorld as
well as all the supporters in the Java developer community for the
fantastic reception and endorsement you've given to JBuilder 2007.
It's a great honor to receive this award, and we're thrilled by the
success of the product in just one year. JBuilder 2007 offers unique
graphical tools, performance tuning capabilities, and collaborative
development features on top of Eclipse which are translating into real
productivity and costs benefits for developers and development teams."

Year awards are available online at: http://www.infoworld.com/
