:: JGOODIES :: UI Framework

:: Readme :: UIF 1.9.1 ::

The JGoodies UIF helps you build sophisticated Swing apps efficiently. It provides solutions that extend and complement Swing to address common user interface tasks. And it contains several prebuilt dialogs, panels and components.

Requirements

The UIF 1.9 requires Java 5 or later and the following JGoodies libraries: Binding, Forms and Looks. It also requires the swing-worker-1.1.jar that ships with the Swing Suite in librarires/swingworker-1.1. At compilation time only, the Apple Java extensions are required too; this library is not required at runtime.

The JGoodies Forms library is used in class AbstractDialog only. The JGoodies Looks library is used only for the classes in package com.jgoodies.uif.laf. The SwingWorker jar is required for the SafeWorker class.

Getting Started

Check the User's Guide first. To get acquainted with the framework features, I recommend to study the JGoodies Skeleton Pro application and its sources.

Support

Support is available through the JGoodies technical mailing list; and you can contact us at support@JGoodies.com. We announce updates and major changes in the low traffic JGoodies announcement mailing list.
