FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE WAVES IN MOTION ANNOUNCES THE RELEASE OF ANALYZER 4.0 FOR FILEMAKER 7.0 DEVELOPERS Phoenix, AZ, October 6, 2004 -- Waves in Motion announces the release of its cross platform solution, Analyzer 4.0. Analyzer 4.0 is the first tool of its kind for FileMaker 7.0 developers who want to document, troubleshoot, and debug their FileMaker 7.0 solutions. Analyzer 4.0 delivers performance! Imports for a simple solution occur in SECONDS and a larger more complex solution in MINUTES. "Speed was our number one goal for this product, and I believe we achieved that goal," according to Marcus Silving, CEO of Waves in Motion. According to Eric Jungemann, General Partner, InfoMatrix, LLC, "Analyzer 4.0 is a critical part of our development process. It is extremely helpful in the analysis of FileMaker 7.0 applications created by other parties or converting solutions. It can save hours in scoping work effort. It is important during the development process to find and report on issues. It provides an important element of version control with comparison reports between versions. We simply can't live without it. It is an essential part of any FileMaker 7.0 professional's toolkit. Even better, Waves in Motion improves it all the time!" Analyzer's legendary problem dots have been expanded to include Orange DotsTM (for dependencies), and Green DotsTM (for references). Finding important information to make programming decisions has never been easier. Analyzer allows the user to search for objects, and then instantly hot-link to them. Developers become more productive when they can easily track down where a certain field is referenced or where certain functions are used in calculations. One of the most impressive features of Analyzer 4.0 is its ability to compare one version of a database against another version. Analyzer 4.0 will report any changes, right down to a single-pixel level of accuracy. This feature is very useful for developers working on projects for clients who like a history of all the changes made to a database. Simply run Analyzer before and after the changes and compare the analyses. Another feature developers will find useful is Analyzer's Element reports, including: field reports, layout reports, and script reports. Developers can determine the level of information analysis they require by choosing between detail or summary reports. Analyzer also allows the developer to add a solution note or an analysis note to any element. The notes are captured in the Element reports. Notes can also be searched. Analyzer allows hot linking to any element that is in some way related to or dependent upon by the current element. This makes it possible to debug dependencies, and to isolate and print references. Analyzer also offers developers the ability to trace a script, making it possible to see all the steps touched by one script when it triggers and all the sub-scripts which are triggered. There are two ways to view the script trace report, exploded and condensed. Using these reports, you can quickly trouble shoot dependencies. For anyone planning to build a solution in FileMaker 7 or convert an existing solution, Analyzer 4.0 is an indispensable tool. Analyzer tracks database file references, embedded layout objects, and script step file references and then presents the information in meaningful reports.
