SCA Tools Galileo Release

The SCA Tools project has seen an enormous amount of new development since the 2008 Ganymede release. We’ve added an XML editor to make editing and updating SCA-standard assembly files really easy.

For me, the most exciting feature is how we’ve developed the core SCA model to be extensible by people who want to write in extra capabilities into the tools. The heart of the model contains the SCA standard specifications, and different extensions have been created to support the key Open Source SCA runtimes - Apache Tuscany 1.4 and Frascati 0.5. Using the extension mechanisms, it is much more straightforward to add new concepts to SCA and extend the tools to include them.

SCA Tools has been improved a lot. Download SCA Tools 2.0.0 now!
