WebMethods Developer
Encyclopedia
webMethods Developer is the Java
-based Integrated development environment
(IDE) for developing code on the webMethods Integration Server
.
It allows development in webMethods Flow
which is a graphical programming language designed to simplify and speed up integration application development. With version 7 of the webMethods product suite, webMethods Developer started to be replaced by webMethods Designer, an Eclipsed based EDI. This transition has not been finished yet and both products exist side by side.
Note that it does not store code or execute application logic locally as it is merely a client which instructs the Integration Server
to perform those actions.
