Real Time Integration this week
released the latest version of its NetAcquire Java Toolkit with integrated
JavaBeans suppport.
The NetAcquire Java Toolkit was designed for creating
Java testing and measurement applications and Java virtual instrumentation
front-panels. The NetAcquire Java Toolkit includes JavaBeans components
which are used for graphing, text and lamp displays, disk logging, scaling,
real-time network communication, and data distribution.
NetAcquire Java Toolkit applications aquire data by communicating with
members of the NetAcquire family of network data acquisition and control
servers. Through the use of NetAcquire hardware, analog, digital and serial
data becomes available over any Ethernet network. This enables Java’s
“write-once, run everywhere” cross-platform architecture by adding hardware
input/output capabilities. NetAcquire’s client/server network model enables
time-critical buffering and control code to run on the NetAcquire server
hardware.
The NetAcquire Java Toolkit application will work on any Java-enabled
computer or operating system. The NetAcquire Java Toolkit applet is
supported by Netscape or Internet Explorer browsers for instant real-time
displays. The applet can be uploaded to an integrated Web server inside a
NetAcquire server, making the Java applet immediately available.
The NetAcquire Java Toolkit provides an open architecture environment,
which enables Java programmers to develop custom Java code to extend their
application’s capabilities. Additionally, it interfaces to third-party
JavaBeans class libraries, and is compatible with a variety of JavaBeans
development environments, such as Symantec’s VisualCAFE.
The NetAcquire Java Toolkit sells for a retail price of $495.
