Komodo IDE 5.0 Release Enhances Feature Set for Development Teams
Vancouver, BC. November 4, 2008-ActiveState Software, the dynamic languages company, released Komodo IDE 5.0 today. Komodo IDE 5.0 enhances the award-winning integrated development environment with new and improved features for developers working in small teams.
With multi-language editing and debugging, code sharing and productivity tools, easy customization and extensibility, friendly multi-platform and user-based permanent licensing, an open source foundation (with Komodo Edit and the Open Komodo Project), and highly-praised support and active user community, Komodo IDE is designed for small and diverse developer teams.
The new release builds on Komodo IDE's team strengths with new support for the Git, Mercurial (hg), and Bazaar distributed version control systems (in addition to the already supported Subversion, Perforce, and CVS). And smart cross-SCC system checkout wizardry makes it easier to get to work on shared repositories.
Sharing code across a team is also better with Komodo IDE 5.0's improved code formatting. Consistent formatting makes reading and maintaining code easier, so Komodo IDE makes it simple with built-in code formatting tools and the ability to easily hook in external code formatting tools (like PHP Beautifier, Perltidy, and astyle).
The Komodo IDE 5.0 beta release had developers a-twitter, prompting tweets including "Komodo IDE 5 is looking pretty schweeeeet," "Je teste Komodo 5 qui est vraiment un tres bon IDE pour le web," and "For people that haven't been following the 5.0 development of Komodo IDE: bunch of goodies!!!"
Komodo IDE 5.0 is now built on the Mozilla 1.9 codebase (the same codebase as Firefox 3) and Python 2.6, so it's speedier, prettier (particularly the more native look on OS X), and has new features to aid in stability.
The Komodo IDE dev team added top-requested features like multiple top-level windows and cleaner user interfaces for tabs and sidebars too. To see the complete release notes, visit http://docs.activestate.com/komodo/5.0/.
