Hi all, after reading all the different views I thought I add my 2€c...
As Tony mentioned I created an experimental POC for a JavaFX window system on top of NetBeans (ok what remains once you get rid of ALL Swing dependencies). With this experience I would suggest the following: 1. Try to identify what we can reuse in a post Swing world (JavaFX or HTML5 as a replacement does not matter for this step) 2. Decouple this (or more if possible) from actual Swing dependencies 3. Start the discussion again based on the new API's Anyone familiar with E4? Sounds very similar to this? So what do we really expect from a UI agnostic NetBeans Platform? Hope this starts a discussion about API design and ends the flame war.. Thanks for great API's Jarda - let's create even better API's together for the future. Sven P.S. The prototype is available as efx and a sample app vmFX at bitbucket... dormant for a while...
