Seapine Software has released a new version of its enterprise software configuration management offering Surround SCM 2010, which extends customisation and provides additional process visibility.
According to Seapine, the new Surround SCM 2010 features an Open API, which allows users to write applications that access branches, repositories and files on the surround SCM server using C, Java and .Net programming languages; enhanced reporting capabilities and external reporting services integration, which enables customisation of internal reports and allow users to build and view custom reports or dashboards stored in external reporting services.
The company said that the Surround SCM graphical client allows allows users to launch third-party applications or custom scripts from within surround SCM. The Surround SCM’s license server includes detailed logging of license usage and the ability to determine peak usage times and the distribution of license types through a dashboard.
In addition, the Surround SCM 2010 also includes support for Unix symlinks, automatic client upgrades to simply administration, and integration with Apple’s Xcode development environment.
Rick Riccetti, president and CEO of Seapine Software, said: “The theme of the Surround SCM 2010 release was customisation with the goal of enabling our customers to more easily integrate Surround into their development processes. Surround’s graphical client is also configurable now, allowing users to kick off builds or perform other activities from the client.
“With each version of Surround SCM, we continue to address the critical needs of software development organisations by providing features and enhancements that improve productivity, offer more value, and help teams deliver quality products on time and within budget.”
