Thanks for the reply, i would be more than happy the get view at your framework! It would be nice if you could post a message when you upload it to sourceforge, maybe you could also post a message on javalobby's product announcements, that's a nice place to get a global look of java related releases (most small, but sometimes quite interesting).
Greetings, Twan

Hi Twan,
I am currently working on a GUI project called TS Client which I will post on Source Forge within a week or 2.
This GUI project is not based on Jelly, but has some features that may save some hours coding.
The system is has a MVC pattern with the following features:
- 100% Java using Swing and McKoi as database server
- System can run in server mode and in embedded mode, like for example MS Access.
- Generic controller handles 90% of all database queries
- Specific controller for join queries
- GenericTableModel is used for all tables
This saves a lot of manual coding as it can be re-used for all tables.
Has complete separation of colums shown and data stored in table.
- Forms have Search > Table > Form structure consistently throughout the system.
Creating new forms takes a few hours including testing.
- Jakarta DBCP for connection pooling
- Jakarta Db Utils for returning resultset as a collection, like Map or List.
This keeps clode clean as SQL code is encapsulated in DB Utils.
With this framework in place creating new forms is fast and easy.
In virtaully all cases you do not need to write SQL statements as this can be handled by the generic controller.
Even the specific controller can be turned into generic code using meta data.
However in this case I prefered speed over abstraction.
The project does not use XML to generate the view.
However in how many cases do you want to re-use your GUI view for a web page.
This looks very unlikely to me as web pages simply have other requirements than GUI forms.
Just let me know if you are interested and I will post a message when the project is life at Source Forge.

Hello,
Today i was looking for a framework to make it easier to develop swing gui's and which seperates the gui from the logic in a swing application. The swing application will consist of about 90 screens (dialogs and panels) and may be converted in a couple of years to a webapplication (that's why seperation of view and logic is quit important).
After scanning through Lexor (gpl), SwingML (gpl) and a couple of projects which did seam quit dead i bumped against jelly-swing. I read through the javadoc and found that only a subset of the swing library is complete.
Is there a roadmap or a planning for jelly-swing?
Thanks, Twan Kogels
