Over 50 controls (rialets, widgets) are available in the IAB Studio toolbars. A single mouse-click and the chosen Rialet” will be placed into the web page in the absolute or relative position. Within minutes you can build a comprehensive web application that is addressing complex business or technical requirements. The same web page can use such functionality as data entry forms, dashboard with reports, charts and process control. Any rialet” can be reused as-is or customized functionally or visually. WYSIWYG designers and editors are widely used with data management, reporting, charting, or workflows. Among others, there are such useful rialets as RTF or plain text editors, a few types of treeviews or grids and even multi-media control for music or video. Rich client IAB controls (rialets) allow developers to concentrate on business logic while the GUI will be built swiftly.

IAB Studio uses asynchronous mechanism for communication between the web browser and server. Most of IAB controls communicate with each other and exchange data with the server without refreshing the whole web page. With IAB Studio you also can manage multiple project structures, coordinate project teams and communicate with other users, schedule appointments and send e-mails with attachments.

The foremost novelty of this release (4.1) is Drag-N-Drop functionality. It is implemented within IDE and can be widely employed for user applications. No GUI coding whatsoever is required to implement most of IAB functionality. Another enhancement is yet more advanced application deployment mechanism.

IAB Studio is an independent product that can be installed on the web server for the enterprise projects or on the local computer. It also is integrated with other IDE and currently is available as a RIA platform for Eclipse ( plug-in is available and FREE ) or for Weblogic Portal and Workspace.

IAB Studio is available for FREE download with many examples and on-line documentation.
