InSight is the industry's first product to fully implement object management by integrating software configuration management (SCM) and repository functionality for component-based development. The combination of capabilities enables a development team to manage, understand and reuse development components in an OLE-based object repository.
InSight features Visual Links, a technology which enables teams to graphically visualize dependencies between objects, analyze the impact of changes and achieve reuse.
InSight supports full integration with Microsoft Visual Basic, in addition to native support for all file types and OLE objects. The Visual Basic integration features include an add-in and automatic dependency analysis.
InSight's integrated change management allows changes to be defined and documented precisely. This reduces errors and increases developer's confidence in the code, an important consideration with the ever-increasing numbers of components and the constant pressure to achieve reuse.
The InSight repository uses proven, industry standard database technology, via ODBC, to provide robust, scaleable and portable storage for all development components.
