Eiffel Corner

Did you ever wish you could create web servlets using Eiffel? Thanks to our friends at the Goanna project you now can!

Goanna provides an XMLC-like (www.enhydra.org) environment for Eiffel developers including a servlet engine, DOM implementation, HTML/XML parser and XML-to-Eiffel compiler (XMLE). Java developers familiar with servlet programming will be able to develop Eiffel servlets easily using the Goanna Framework. The Goanna servlet library provides a similar API to Java servlets.

The Eiffel guarantee: From specification to implementation

Everything you ever wanted to know about Eiffel can be found on this site.


.NET Experts Fall Workshops

Let us help you master .NET by taking one of our fall workshops. Topics include:

  • Using the .Net Frameworks and Libraries
  • Programming .Net with C#
  • Introduction to Eiffel and Object-Oriented Programming on .NET

Our workshops are intensive, in-depth, hands-on sessions enabling you to master all the details of .NET technologies and return home ready to deliver impressive, robust applications. Sessions usually run 5 days but can be delivered on-site from 1-5 days. Enrollment in each session is strictly limited so that each student can benefit from the personal attention of the instructors.

Update on Eiffel For Linux & Unix

If you've been waiting patiently for Eiffel for Linux and Unix, your wait is almost over. We plan to release the Linux and Unix versions this fall as part of our 5.1 release.

New features include: EiffelStudio, fully integrated analysis, design and programming tool supporting both text-based and graphical development and round-trip engineering; spectacularly fast compilation; unique project documentation and Web publishing tools; debugging; wizards to help developers.

If you are interested in pre-ordering your own version, contact sales@eiffel.com for pricing information.
