I'm glad to announce that the version 0.4.5 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.

In this new version the event's handling has been enhanced by
introducing the possibility to almost handle any event (MouseEvents,
KeyEvents, FocusEvents, PropertyChangeEvents, etc...).
Added the support for FileFilters, in order to determine the file
extensions shown by a JFileChooser.
The optional TreeCellRenderer tag was added for JTrees, in order to
determine the icon, text and tooltip text of each tree's node.
Finally, the user's guide has been updated with the documentation
about the new features.

You can read all the changes at
http://www.swixat.org/docs/changes-report.html and download the last
version from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=99002

Any comment and suggestion is welcome, of course.

Regards
Paolo Marrone
