Subject: VOODOO Server – Version Control for CodeWarriors –
Mac OS X Version Demonstrated at MacWorld Expo San Francisco
San Francisco, CA (MacWorld EXPO 2001), January-9-2001, UNI SOFTWARE PLUS
demonstrates their flagship version control tool VOODOO Server running
natively on Mac OS X at this year’s MacWorld Expo San Francisco.
Unlike most other version control solutions, VOODOO Server features a
modern client/server architecture. The robust and efficient new Mac OS X
builds therefore the ideal platform for running VOODOO Server. The
CodeWarrior plug-in offers a user-friendly version control solution that
lets you keep track of all your files without having to deal with
additional complexity and bureaucracy, all from inside the CodeWarrior IDE
in an easy-to-use Mac-like style, available the same way under OS X and the
“Classic” OS.
“We are impressed with the advancements Apple is making with its new
operating system and are happy to showcase VOODOO Server natively on OS X
at this year’s MacWorld Expo,” said Christoph Reichenberger, VODOOO product
manager. “We will continue to work closely with Apple to make sure to
provide our software natively on Mac OS X as soon as OS X will be released.”
For Newcomers – the Quick Guide to VOODOO Server!
=================================================
VOODOO Server is a version control system for software developers using
Metrowerks CodeWarrior under Mac OS. VOODOO Server and the included
CodeWarrior plug-in provide reliable and robust version control without
adding the administrative overhead that often accompanies version control.
The unique client/server architecture forms the basis for a highly
efficient and robust multi-user environment and avoids the risk of database
corruption. VOODOO Server’s CodeWarrior plug-in lets you track all your
files without having to deal with additional complexity and administrative
overhead, all from inside the CodeWarrior IDE in an easy-to-use Macintosh
style.
Using an innovative combination of delta storage and compression
technology, VOODOO Server yields much better compression rates than most
other version control tools. The typical savings are in the range 95 to 99
percent.
Being time zone aware and transferring data in encrypted and compressed
form between the client and the server, VOODOO Server is the ideal tool
even for scattered work groups who are connected via the Internet.
VOODOO Server offers a rich set of version control functionality in form of
an OSA compliant API. An extensive AppleEvent dictionary makes it easy for
you to write your own AppleScripts to automate arbitrary version control
tasks. More clients to come will offer integration with many other
applications.
VOODOO Server follows the slogan of the platform it was designed for – it
IS DIFFERENT. It is so easy to use that developers can put their project
under version control within minutes. Even developers who avoided other
version control tools because of their complicated administration and lack
of efficiency and robustness are now happy with VOODOO Server. They
confirmed that VOODOO Server is powerful and yet easy to use – just as
Macintosh software should be…
