Accélérez le développement d’interfaces utilisateur de bureau avec les outils WPF

Mai 6, 2025

Améliorez vos projets WPF .NET avec la prise en charge avancée de l’IDE pour des workflows de conception plus rapides, un codage précis et un débogage fiable.

.NET WPF support in an IDE refers to the integrated development environment's ability to facilitate the development, design, debugging, and maintenance of Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) applications built on the .NET platform. This support typically includes features such as XAML editing with syntax highlighting and IntelliSense, visual designers for UI layout, data binding tools, project templates, and integrated debugging for both managed code and the UI. It aids the development process by allowing developers to design responsive and modern desktop interfaces efficiently, maintain a clear separation of concerns using MVVM (Model-View-ViewModel), and take advantage of .NET's rich libraries and performance optimizations.

Several IDEs offer support for .NET WPF including:

Rider by JetBrains, lets you build and debug .NET WPF applications with responsive XAML editing, seamless UI design, and cross-platform tooling.
RemObjects Elements allows you to develop .NET WPF apps using multiple languages, offering lightweight, fast compilation and advanced cross-target project control.
Microsoft Visual Studio Professional facilitates rich .NET WPF development with full XAML design tools, advanced debugging, project templates, and seamless UI workflow integration.

Créez et gérez les environnements d’exécution à partir de fichiers SBOM

Mai 6, 2025

La plateforme ActiveState permet désormais aux utilisateurs de créer des projets à partir de fichiers de nomenclature logicielle (SBOM) pour une réplication sécurisée de l’environnement.

ActiveState Platform is a cloud-based solution that streamlines the secure development, management, and deployment of applications built on Python, Perl, Tcl and Ruby. It offers a curated catalog of open-source packages vetted for security and licensing, along with secure build services that create isolated and verifiable runtime environments. The platform ensures application integrity throughout the development process, from dev environments to CI/CD pipelines, and provides visibility and control over your open source from discovery to deployment. By using ActiveState Platform, you can secure your open source software supply chain in one unified place.

The latest release of ActiveState Platform adds the ability to create ActiveState projects from a software bill of materials (SBOM) file. Such a file lists all the components that make up a software application, covering both open-source and proprietary elements. It helps development teams verify that third-party and open-source dependencies are current, enabling swift action when new security issues arise, and can be used by users and stakeholders to evaluate and manage risk. Compatible SBOMs can now be used to create projects in ActiveState Platform, and are either generated by ActiveState or via a third-party such as Synk or Trivy. This functionality enables developers to convert a static inventory of software components into a fully managed, reproducible runtime environment.

ActiveState Platform is licensed per developer as an annual license. See our ActiveState Platform licensing page for full details.

Créez, affichez et gérez des PDF avec précision

Mai 6, 2025

Facilitez la création, la modification et l’affichage de fichiers PDF dans votre logiciel grâce à des composants flexibles conçus pour les développeurs.

PDF components provide developers with a set of tools for programmatically handling Portable Document Format (PDF) files within applications. These components enable both the creation and manipulation of PDF documents, supporting a wide range of document workflows across platforms and industries. By integrating such components, developers can build features for generating reports, rendering documents for viewing, or embedding print-ready files in business applications, often without relying on external software or services.

Common features include:

Creating PDFs allows developers to generate PDF files dynamically from scratch or from templates, often with full control over layout, fonts, and content.
PDF Reader/PDF Viewer functionality enables applications to render and display PDF documents interactively, supporting zoom, navigation, and annotations.
Printing/Saving to PDF provides an option to export content or print output directly into a PDF file, preserving formatting and layout.
Right to Left (RTL) Support ensures that content in languages such as Arabic and Hebrew is displayed correctly, including text alignment and reading order.
Searching Text allows users to locate and highlight specific terms or phrases within a PDF document.
Saving a PDF to a Stream enables in-memory saving of PDF documents, which is particularly useful for web services and APIs where disk I/O is limited.
Opening Existing PDFs from Stream provides a way to load and manipulate PDF files directly from memory streams, improving performance and enabling secure handling of sensitive documents.
