What's New in 2007 Release 2

Support for Gigabyte Size XML Files
Stylus Studio® 2007 XML Enterprise Suite, Release 2 implements several optimizations that permit the editing of huge XML documents (in the multi-gigabyte range) in the text editor. Because previous versions loaded the entire document in memory, a lot of memory was required and support was limited to documents of up to 200MB. With the new enhancements, memory consumption is linear, enabling support for XML larger documents at quicker execution times.

Query Plan
Stylus Studio® 2007 XML Enterprise Suite, Release 2 introduces a new query plan utility for DataDirect XQuery™. You can visualize query execution plans in to gain insight into how DataDirect XQuery™ will execute your XQuery code, including seeing the type of SQL statements that are used to access relational data, when XML streaming is being used, which temporary tables are being created, when variables are being called, etc. The new feature is available in the XQuery editor, and is available for any well-formed XQuery code which targets DataDirect XQuery™.

Stylus Studio's main design goals were to maximize XML developer productivity, push innovation, and provide unquestioned value, which are the top needs for both software developers and managers alike.

Productivity
Stylus Studio is designed to automate and accelerate the XML development process. XML's verbose self-describing syntax is generally cumbersome to work with manually, and is of course better suited for being developed with Stylus Studio. Stylus Studio consists of powerful XML editors, for example, an XML editor that allows users to work with XML in a variety of different views including text, grid, and tree views.

Complex XML code - for XQuery, XSLT, XML Schema or SQL/XML queries - can be intuitively developed using their respective editors, which support drag-and-drop or visual design operations. Productivity gains are also achieved using Stylus Studio's plentiful XML developer features, including code generators (for XML Schema and DTD, for example) and conversion utilities (import/export data wizards and HTML-to-XSLT conversions, for example) which automate commonly performed developer tasks.

Support for source code integration and a robust project window enable Stylus Studio to be used on large software projects in real-world software development scenarios.

Innovation
The explosive growth of XML standards and their extensive adoption throughout enterprise computing requires an XML IDE that can provide comprehensive and innovative support for the newest XML technologies, and one capable of issuing timely product updates as XML specifications evolve. Stylus Studio has a long history of first-to-market achievements, including the first XSLT debugger, XSLT Mapper, and the new XQuery Mapper. And on startup, Stylus Studio notifies you if an update to your installed version is available, so you are never behind the curve in the rapidly evolving world of XML technology.

Value
Stylus Studio offers unprecedented value as a true enterprise software development tool. But the value of a tool is not solely derived by merely weighing the cost of the software application against the types of productivity gains described earlier. Stylus Studio's vast collection of XML debuggers and testing utilities ensures correct program behavior and eliminates costly software bugs at the outset of the software development cycle, resulting in better quality code. Furthermore, the XML standards-based approach to software application development is fundamentally more cost effective then proprietary alternatives, enabling you to avoid the higher costs associated with single vendor traps and lock-ins. Finally, Stylus Studio product support is offered free of charge and Stylus Studio Developers Network offers numerous free developer resources, eliminating support and maintenance plans.

Enterprise v Professional
The core difference is that XML Enterprise Edition extends XML Professional Edition with Java code generation, testing, and deployment capabilities for the XML developer.

Stylus Studio provides a comprehensive set of XML tools and features for working with XML, XQuery, XSLT, XML Schema/DTD, XPath, SQL/XML, XHTML, and Web services technologies.
