At a steady pace Gerd continues to add features and stabilize the existing ones in the db4o plugin for Sun's pure Java NetBeans 6.0 IDE aka db4o-netbeans.
The documentation has been updated. You can check the new features on the db4o-netbeans home or download it directly from here.
Feature list for version 0.6:
- Create/Open/Close a db4o database file
- Browse the objects stored in the database
- Change properties of stored objects
- Add/Remove objects
- Add/Remove queries
- Executing queries
- Displaying query results in a separate editor window
- Auto-Update functionality
- Host a db4o database file in an embedded server
- Sending text messages to a db4o database server
Changes in version 0.6:
- Adding multiple objects to an initially empty db4o database
- Sending text messages to a db4o database server
- Password field also enabled for db4o database fields
- Output Window Support
- Bug fixes
Soon, after finishing the most important basic features to the plugin, Gerd will have a look on how to add support to the Visual Web Pack integrated into NetBeans. This will be good milestone for a tight integration of db4o database into NetBeans.
As usual any feedback is appreciated!
