The Linux big factory Red Hat begins to open the test software, hoping that the program designer can write software on its different versions of open source operating systems. Red Hat has added a new Application Build Environment (Apply Environment), referred to as ABE on Friday. This tool allows developers to build different applications more easily on Red Hat Different versions of Linux. Make sure higher-end software can be performed more smoothly on the operating system, with its direct business benefits, help reduce customer trouble and technical support requirements. Red Hat and Novell, Microsoft, SUN and other software companies are competing to strive to pay attention to procedural designers and software companies. The operating system changes with the update of various new features, or the software program supports (so-called library, libraries). For program designers, it is relatively simple on existing old operating systems; re-establishing the environment on new machines, is also the purpose of new program tools. In addition, this software will allow program designers to test whether their software can perform on older version of Red Hat Linux. ABE can be obtained at the 32-bit and 64-bit operating system of the Red Hat X86 version.
