I'm glad to announce that the version 0.3.5 of SwiXAT - the Swing XML
Authoring Tool - has been released.
You can download it at http://www.swixat.org and read a short tutorial
at http://www.swixat.org/wiki/tiki-index.php?page=Tutorial
SwiXAT 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.
Changes:
- The <Script> tag has been added to import a script directly within a view.
- The mechanism to show the view in response to a command was made dynamic.
- Now the developer can indicate relative paths for all the resources,
in order to easily relocate the entire application.
- Some bugs about the context handling were fixed.
- The documentation has been improved and a complete tutorial has been
added.
The project is at an early stage of development, hence any feedback is
welcome.
Regards
Paolo Marrone
