Some Free Tools For xMII Consultants

As an xMII Consultant, one needs to deal with variety of technologies(viz web technologies(js, ajax,) , data manipulation(XML, XSLT), db(oracle,mysql,oracle, UDS), SAP and xMII.
So I'm giving links to some of the free tools that I use for developing composites usig xMII.

Notepad++ - One of the most useful tool for any developer. Its very handy and handles most of the programming language formats. Moreover one can add custom plugins to handle some customised tasks.

XML Marker - XML editing made easy for free.

Gliffy - Used for creating diagrams.

xMII enhanced BLS - SAP xMII Enhanced Logic Editor is an enhanced version of standard SAP xMII Logic editor that allows an xMII developer to debug and develop transactions as never before thought. Developed by Felix Jeyareuben, a really cool tool. But it might be violating the SAP terms(that's why they deleted his weblog on that.(Download it at your own risk).

Technical Specifications to xMII transaction - Technical Specifications to xMII transaction is a tool that auto-generates transactions in xMII directly from the technical specifications. The tool is designed in such a way that the transactions will work automatically and no additional efforts after generating the transactions are needed. This tools is also developed by Felix Jeyareuben.

HeidiSQL:
HeidiSQL is a powerful and easy client for MySQL

Toad
: The most powerful and free client for SQL.




Other tools that are good( but not free) are:

  1. Adobe Dreamweaver CS3
  2. Microsoft SQL Server Developer Edition 2005 CD/DVD
  3. SAP R/3 IDES 4.71 + Oracle Database 9.2.10+ Education License

and of course Grand Theft Auto 3
