Actually, I did have a question about this. Does this call a JTable constructor with what it gets from the InitType parameter? That does make things a bit more useful.

I agree, and I understand and agree with Wolf's focus on doing one thing, and doing it well. That's why I'm curious if there is a place for this stuff, either in add-ons to SwixML, or in slightly seperate SwixModelML and SwixEventML projects. That is, projects that are made to work with Swix, without changing what SwixML is.

I just kind of look at this like we have the View part of Model-View-Controller (MVC) done really well in SwixML. I was looking at the other parts. It would be nice if we could have as simple a language for Model and Controller (Events, sorta).

I definitely don't want something complicated. Perhaps I should code up something simple and post it out here as an example.

Pat.
