The program is a comprehensive editor that supports all XML related technologies, and includes content-author features such as CSS-driven Visual XML editor married to a full-featured XML development environment. It includes support for all XML schema languages and main document frameworks (DITA, DocBook, TEI and XHTML) as well as support for XSLT/XQuery debuggers, XML databases, XMD Diff and Merge, a WSDL analyzer, an SVN client and more.
The new version also includes an updated API and updates for many of the third-party components, as well as adds support for MarkLogic 5. The program is sold in three versions, an Academic/Personal license ($64, includes one year support), a Professional license ($488) and an Enterprise license for $698. Users can purchase XML Developer and XML Author as stand-alone products, with Professional licenses for either costing $349 and Enterprise licenses costing $449. A free 30-day trial is available.
