I want to inform you that the SwiXAT - Swing XML Authoring Tool - v. 0.4.0 is out.
SwiXAT (http://www.swixat.org) 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 to define the view, 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. The use of XPath makes it very simple to traverse the object tree of the application's business model. SwiXAT is built on top of SwiXML, without any modification to its source code, so that SwiXAT can be considered as the natural MVC extension to SwiXML. Changes: - Support for defining and executing Wizards has been added. - The view now provides new tools for MDI applications (a built-in window menu and a scrollable desktop pane). - Two calendar components (DatePanel and DateField from the Nachocalendar project) have been added. - A customizable TreeModel has been implemented to fill the hierarchical tree of a JTree directly from the business model. - Maven build files have been added, and the user's guide has been updated with documentation about the new features. SwiXAT is released with the Apache 2.0 license and I invite you to try it and send me your comments (even negative) and suggestions.
