JetBrains MPS 1.0 Paints the Future of Software Development With a New Programming
Paradigm
PRAGUE, July 24 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
- Implementing the Language Oriented Programming Paradigm, JetBrains MPS
Provides Unprecedented Freedom in Extending Programming Languages and
Creating DSLs for Developing Real-Life Applications.
JetBrains(R), creators of intelligent and innovative
productivity-enhancing tools for software developers, have announced the 1.0
release of their new conceptual software development environment - Meta
Programming System, or MPS.
MPS is a professional language workbench and integrated
development environment (IDE) for extending existing languages and using them
to develop software. It is also an advanced instrument for creating new
custom languages, or Domain Specific Languages, and allows defining new
environments for working with these DSLs. By using MPS, and DSLs created with
its help, domain experts can solve their domain-specific tasks easily, even
if they're not familiar with programming.
To empower developers in adapting programming languages to
their specific needs, MPS provides advanced facilities for defining language
typesystems, constraints, specialized projectional editors and generators.
Utilizing the generative approach, languages in MPS are described on a higher
level, after which MPS generates compilable code in other languages, such as
Java. A key advantage of MPS is that languages are composable: they can be
easily combined with each other, which promotes reuse of languages.
"MPS has come a long way since the original concept back in
2003 and is now a powerful, mature software tool that paints the future of
software development," said Sergey Dmitriev, JetBrains CEO and author of the
MPS concept. "We've always taken pride in using our own software products,
and we're already using MPS as a development platform for several of our
latest products. One of them, a web-based issue tracker code-named Charisma,
is already available for early access preview."
MPS is free for all users, with a major part of its source
code open and available under Apache license.
