COOL:Joe Datasheet


COOL:Joe is an EJB development environment integrated with architecture design and component modeling capabilities. Java development teams are able to architect, create, deploy and manage reliable and scalable enterprise applications using EJBs. Using COOL:Joe’s built-in smart features, developers can automatically generate EJBs from component specifications, test and debug business logic, and deploy to an application server. Developing distributed systems is effortless because COOL:Joe generates the EJB infrastructure code and frees the developers to concentrate on developing business logic.
Who should use COOL:Joe IT architects who need to design large-scale distributed eBusiness systems. Development teams who want to create and deploy server-side components with Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs) technology. Java specialists that want to be insulated from the underlying Java technology while taking advantage of EJBs.
Features of COOL:Joe Component Management Manage components as corporate assets, providing a foundation for re-use. Component Modeling Visualize a component architecture and collaborations among component interfaces. Smart Options Provide ways to get the most out of your developer resources. Smart Expansions Provide common code fragments to be built and shared across the development team. Smart Macros Extend the COOL:Joe development environment to automate processes for your team. Smart Methods Avoid coding errors by leveraging the power of an object repository. Editor Quickly create and edit business logic and related files with advanced editing capabilities. Object repository All visualization and implementation objects created and defined once and used as needed. UML Class Diagram Implementation classes modeled using auto-layout. Java Standards Full support for Sun Microsystems’ Java 2. Advanced Wizards Automate the majority of the development effort so generalists and specialists can generate server side EJB components. Specification to Implementation Wizard Generate all the necessary classes to support implementing your business components. Component Wizard Automatically converts Java classes to EJB components without specification. EJB Generation Wizard Apply the Enterprise JavaBeans framework to your business logic. Persistence Generation Wizard Automatically support persistence by generating the object to relational mappings and data management methods. Test Harness Wizard Automatically generates user interfaces for testing. Build Wizard Compiles component classes and creates JAR files. Deployment Wizard Automatic deployment to leading EJB application server environments. Interactive Debugger Set breakpoints and step through Java business logic. Workflow in COOL:Joe Model business processes and relationships to build a component architecture, which includes the individual component specifications, needed to meet new systems requirements. Use the Specification to Implementation Wizard to transform a component specification into Java classes. Generate a set of persistence support classes to access a relational database with the Persistence Generation Wizard. Use the DDL Generation Wizard to generate the database definition language. Use the Editor to specify business logic and use the Class Diagram to model class structures. Use the EJB Generation Wizard to generate the code to implement the component as an Enterprise JavaBean. Compile component classes and create an executable JAR file with the Build Wizard. Use the Deployment Wizard to deploy the EJB JAR file to the Enterprise JavaBean server. Use the Test Harness Wizard to generate all the code necessary to test the component. Two interfaces may be generated for testing – a Java desktop application and HTML servlets. Test the EJB. EJB implemented successfully. Open Integration COOL:Joe includes Component Manager 1.2, which provides support for multiple component models. For example, component specifications implemented in COOL:Gen can also be used in COOL:Joe to generate native EJBs. In addition, COOL:Gen’s Java Proxy can be used to link EJBs created in COOL:Joe with COOL:Gen server transactions. Any Java source can be imported in to COOL:Joe, providing open integration with Java tools.
