Hello, Dirk writes in that a first prototype for Wiser a new project that lets you build Swing or Web/HTML clients using XML is now live.
Dirk writes: Wi.Ser is a Java/XML server-side GUI-framework, which enables applications to run as Swing- monolithic-, Swing-client/server- and Web-application without any change. Furthermore it includes a mixed deployment mode, which supports one server serving Swing-clients and Web-clients at the same time. The framework uses XML to define an application's GUI and provides a common widget based programming interface for Web and Swing GUIs, which prevents the developer from struggling with HTML and HTTP or with the internals of Swing. Even complex widgets like treeviews, contextmenues, tabbedpanes, etc are available in all client channels. The project includes a WYSIWYG GUI-builder which is completely build on the Wi.Ser framework technology. This are the main advantages: - faster and easier development of rich Web and Swing clients using XML and/or a common API - compared to current standard tools - effort savings of 50+% for complex GUIs seem to be realistic - no HTML knowledge necessary for developing even complex Web GUIs - developing Swing client/server applications without taking care of the split between client and server - one simple XML definition and api for Swing- and Web-appications - complete separation of GUI building code from application code More @ https://wiser.dev.java.net If anyone tries out WiSer our studies WiSer closer, let us know what you think or how it goes.
