Provides you with a rich family of tools integrated into an Eclipse workbench including remote (IBM i, AIX, or Linux) file management, searching, editing, refactoring, application analysis, build, and debug. Enables you to develop in both host-connected and disconnected modes.
Comprehensive application development solution: Simplify and accelerate code development and maintenance through a comprehensive application development environment when used in combination with IBM Power Systems compilers and Rational Team Concert.
Application performance: Take full advantage of industry leading compiler optimization technology when used in combination with IBM Power Systems compilers (purchased separately, or as part of Rational Developer for Power Systems Software Studio offerings).
Improved developer productivity: Realize productivity gains of moving from older text-based, command-line development tools, to a rich integrated development environment.
Application portability: Reduces barriers and minimizes the risks of porting from other UNIX system implementations.
Lower training costs: Leverage a modern development environment to attract and retain new talent, many of whom are familiar with Eclipse tools, thereby helping to lower training costs.
Reuse and transfer skills: Make developers portable across projects using AIX, IBM i, and Linux and development tools for a wide range of programming languages, including Java, Java EE, C/C++, RPG, and COBOL.
Flexible packaging: Purchase only the components you need, individual development tools, studio bundles (tools and compilers), and Power tools bundles (Java development tools with native language tools).
Lean collaborative lifecycle management: Integration with Rational Team Concert enables source control, build automation, and collaborative lifecycle management of software projects.
