Adobe Director 11 Ships; Valentina first DB Xtra to Support New Features

without comments

Adobe Inc shipped Adobe Director 11 today, with a street price of $999. This not only marks the first release of Director since Adobe acquired Macromedia in 2005, but also the first major update since the previous version – Director MX 2004 was released on January 5, 2004.

Four years is a very long time for Director developers to wait and some may grumble that such a mature product – given four years – would be more enriched in terms of features.  Check out the attached list. While the list is short on paradigm shifting technologies – this release provides necessary improvements for creating and deploying modern applications using Adobe Director.

Paradigma Software Valentina 3.5.2 for Director 11 is the first database product with key support for Director 11 on Mac OS X on Intel, Windows Vista and Unicode. Valentina for Director is available in developer kits for building standalone applications and projectors as well as true, royalty free client-server or server-side solutions using Valentina Developer Network. With VDN, you can build shockwave-safe or standard projector interface applications and deploy these with a totally complete database server.
