DB Visual Architect Java Edition for NetBeans PDF Version
DB Visual ARCHITECT Java Edition for NetBeans (DBVA JE-NB) is a modeling platform which acts as a bridge between object model, data model and relational model. Thus dramatically reduce development effort by automating the mapping between Java objects and database tables.
Powerful and Easy-to-use GUI
Now developers can create diagrams much faster than any tool on the market through DBVA-NB's most intuitive resource-centric and mouse location sensitive GUI. Tidy up your complex and messy diagrams is just a matter of one mouse click by using DBVA-NB's automatic diagram layout technology and yet our unique gesture editing capability makes diagramming a fun task.
No More Database Programming!
Forward and Reverse engineering from Class diagram to Entity-Relation Diagram (ERD) and from ERD to database generation and vice-versa can be done visually and diagrammatically and it is fully compatible with Hibernate. Visualize and automate the entire object-relational mapping (ORM) process is now transparent to software developers.
Team Development Support
Teamwork Server enables your software developer teams to work on the same projects in parallel. DBVA-NB also helps developers to eliminate tedious document preparation with automatic report generator that supports for popular HTML, MS Word and PDF report generation and publishing.
Extendibility and Custom Design Support
Extends diagram notation capabilities beyond the standard are not a dream! Now, DBVA-NB allows you to design new notation or incorporate custom shapes or symbols by using our embedded shape editor, image icon import, UML profile or Visio integration capability.
