Hello, Synthis Corporation is pleased to announce that Adalon, a next-generation functional design tool for modeling Internet applications, now offers full support for the Struts framework, the leading open-source J2EE Web application architecture from the Apache Software Foundation. Adalon provides a single, integrated environment to gather and track business requirements, visually model the process foundations of an application, and generate complete functional design documentation and code frameworks for ANY target software architecture, programming language, and development platform. Here is what people are saying about Adalon and Struts: "The hardest part of designing any application can be deciding what to build. Adalon helps clients clearly define 'the what' and 'the why' of an application, and the code generation templates give Struts developers a serious jumpstart on 'the how', helping us to build not only a great application, but also the right application." Ted Husted Recognized author, thought-leader, and active contributor to the Struts Project "We have incorporated Adalon into our development process and are currently training our consultants on the product. With Adalon, our consultants now have a great tool to manage the process of developing custom Struts solutions, from initial requirements gathering through to the delivery of implemented code." Dmitry Shugaev Vice President of Technology Computer Consulting Services Corporation (CCSC) Synthis is offering support for Struts in Adalon Developer Edition and Adalon Struts Community Edition.

For this limited time, you can purchase the Adalon Developer Edition for the price of the Adalon Struts Community Edition ($1,499 USD), a savings of $1,000 per software license! **************************************************************** WHAT'S NEW FOR STRUTS IN ADALON 2.2? ***************************************************************** Adalon gives you great flexibility because it contains three different design pattern generators for the Struts architecture: 1. Struts Framework Generator -- Recommended for developers who understand Struts and have their own approach to Struts development, this generator creates fully documented Struts component classes and standard Struts configuration files that adhere closely to the Struts specification. 2. Struts Advanced Generator -- Recommended for developers who are new to Struts, this generator simplifies implementation by generating a best practice based model tier that simplifies development and reduces the amount of Struts-specific knowledge that a team needs to get started. It creates simple, extensible business-logic beans, as well as standard Struts configuration files and component classes. 3. Struts Enterprise Generator -- Generates Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs) to handle business logic, in addition to the standard Struts configuration files and component classes. The generated code template facilitates the creation and distribution of EJB-based, enterprise-class Struts applications.
