I you use one of those things, that is... Which is how many percent of the developers? 5? I don't mean to be rude, but there is a big difference if 5% gets the chance to use it or if 95% get the chance as would've been the case with Swing. Sun engineers always wants us to add this and that to our projects so solve some simple thing but don't seem to understand that all those jars really add up to the download. I would never dream of adding swingx.jar just to get JXLayeredPane, to get painters, for instance. Painters is a 1k thing and you shouldn't have to add more than that to get it. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
