Stylus Studio 2006 XML IDE Jerry King 2006-01-10

Stylus Studio 2006 XML is an advanced XML Integrated Development Environment (XML IDE) with best-in-class features for working with XML, XQuery, XSLT, EDI, XML Schema/DTD, XPath, SQL/XML, XHTML, and Web services. A Convert-to-XML utility allows you to design your own adapters to use these technologies to manipulate non-XML files with either pre-packaged or your own XML tools. Dozens of OASIS catalogs containing XML Schemas and related files for standards such as DocBook, UBL, SOAP/WSDL, SVG, XHTML are also included. Maps for all current versions of EDIFACT and X12 are included in the box.

Stylus Studio incorporates tools from Saxonica (Saxon 6 and 8), Apache (Xerces-C++ and Xerces-J, and Xalan), Microsoft (MSXML and .Net), XSV, DISA/X12, and others, so that you can test your schemas and transforms across multiple platforms. XSLT and XQuery can be debugged and profiled against multiple engines, and connections to native XML databases provide links to where your data resides.

When you are done designing, testing and profiling your code, Stylus Studio helps you deploy it, by generating the source code for you. A license for Saxon SA is included for testing XSLT 1, XSLT 2 and XQuery in a real-world setting, in addition to the many other tools above. And two-way editing means that changes to the diagrams affect your code, and changes to your code affect the diagrams, all in real-time.
