Intuitive Layout-Manager
Intuitive layout tools for designing UIs that fit perfectly
to any display, devices, and resolutions.

Forms
Design any complex form individually by using drag&drop in record time

Master-Detail Views
Create master-detail views easily in record-time.

Grid Assistant
The Grid Assistant is powerful and very valuable. It lets you define columns, formats, computed-fields,
styles and include other UI widgets easily.

Many Further Assistants
RapidClipse provides you assistants for validation,
internationalization and localization, database development and much more.

Database Development with JPA & Hibernate
RDBMS:
Java Objekte:
▪ Storing Java objects into RDBMS (OR-Mapping)
▪ Java Standard: JPA (Java Persistence API)
▪ Using Hibernate (Defacto-Standard)
▪ Database-independent

RapidClipse Hibernate Tools
RapidClipse provides optimized and extended Hibernate Tools, that simplify
database development with JPA & Hibernate radically.
▪ Hibernate entity editor
▪ Error-free Hibernate database import
▪ Error-free data-type mapping for all supported databases
▪ JPA-SQL query language – write SQL syntax, get typesafe JPA Criteria code
▪ Fully Hibernate transaction management

JPA / Hibernate Architecture

RapidClipse Cache Integration
Integrated 2nd-Level Cache for Hibernate. Accelerates your database applications.
▪ Hibernate Second-Level-Cache
▪ Preinstalled
▪ Preconfigurated
▪ MicroStream as Hibernate
Second-Level-Cache
▪ Option to EHCache
▪ Much higher performance

Hibernate Entity Editor
Let‘s you define your Hibernate entity classes easily and
generates the Java code automatically. Bidirectional: use
the editor or change the generated code.

Hibernate Database Import/Export
Hibernate import with error-free data-type mapping for all supported databases. You don‘t have to deal with
Hibernate annotations and very effortful data-type-mappings.

JPA-SQL
JPA-SQL enables you to write your queries with SQL syntax.
JPA-SQL generates Java query code based on JPA Criteria API fully automized behind the scenes.
