Hi all, I'm glad to announce that the version 0.5.0 of SwiXAT - the Swing XML Authoring Tool - has been released. SwiXAT (http://www.swixat.org) is a Swing-based authoring tool for the quick and easy development of GUI Java applications. It implements a true MVC framework and uses SwiXML as the XUL engine (without any modification to its source code!), BeanShell (or Groovy) as a scripting language for the controller, and JXPath as the binding mechanism between the view and model. It provides a complete environment in which it is possible to almost write an entire Java Swing application without writing Java compiled code, maintaining however the power of any java-based application. The use of XPath makes it very simple to traverse the object tree of the application's business model. This new version adds an improved support for JList, JComboBox and JTree components; two new data sources, DOMDataSource and ObjectDataSource were added; the support for JComboBox renderers was added, and the model event handling has been simplified. The user's guide has been updated with the documentation about the new features. You can read all the changes at http://www.swixat.org/docs/changes-report.html and download the last version from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=99002 Any comment and suggestion is welcome, of course.
