S.u.S.E. Announces Linux Patch for Java Workshop 2.0

OAKLAND, CA & FUERTH, GERMANY (March 20, 1998)  S.u.S.E., publisher of
S.u.S.E. Linux,  announces a patch that allows one to run Java Workshop
2.0 in Linux, bringing Java Workshop's  powerful visual development tool
for professional Java programmers to the Linux community. President
James Gray commented, "Projects like this show S.u.S.E's committment to
pushing Linux's already impressive capabilities as a development
platform that much closer to the bleeding edge."  Java Workshop lets
developers take full advantage of the Java platform to create
leading-edge Internet and Intranet applications. It offers a complete,
easy-to-use toolset for building JavaBeans, Java applets, and
applications faster and easier than ever before. Java Workshop also lets
developers create and reuse JavaBeans, includes support for the latest
JDK, and comes with a fast compiler and profiler. Java Workshop is the
ultimate Java development environment - made by Sun and brought to Linux
by S.u.S.E! Java Workshop for Linux is available at a list price of
US$109.00. In addition to the Java Workshop patch, S.u.S.E. offers the
S.u.S.E. Linux OS as well as an extensive collection of applications.


Java WorkShop includes the following components:


   * Visual Java GUI Builder allows quick and efficient creation of
     graphical user interfaces, testing of applications without the need
     to compile, and automatic generation of Java code
   * Palette of pre-built AWT Widgets and JavaBeans components
   * Project and Portfolio Manager makes file management easy by
     handling organizational and control functions
   * Source Editor allows concurrent point-and-click editing of several
     source files
   * Source Browser controls the object-oriented structure of their
     development
   * Build Manager manages the build process, compiles only the files
     that need updating, and automatically finds error locations and
     hyperlinks back to the source code
   * Project Tester allows users to run applets without starting up a
     seperate Web browser
   * Profiler runs perfomance analysis
   * Version Control Systems support SCCS, RCS, PVCS
   * Please note that the Debugger Tool is not yet usable with Linux.

System Requirements

     Java Development 1.1, available on S.u.S.E. Linux 5.0 or higher.
     PC with 100 MHz Pentium or better
     32 MB RAM
     43 MB disk space
