JMatter-20080204 released - No Fluff Just Stuff

JMatter-20080204 released

Posted by: Andres Almiray on February 4, 2008

Eitan made the announcement a couple of hours ago, the latest version of the JMatter framework is available, ready to be downloaded! Here is the link to the changelog.

There are many interesting features, the most notable ones (IMHO) are
  • Quicksilver-like interface to invoke commands and navigate around your application, it just feels natural!.
  • Per command icons, which are a great tie-in with the quicksilver interface
  • Initial map support thanks to swingx components, here is a preview from a couple of months ago.
  • Support for legacy database schemas, no need to reinvent your existing db in order to use JMatter.
  • A pair of builders (1 Java, 1 Groovy) to facilitate creating wizards (previewed here).
  • Last but not least, initial support for an Application Browser, which in short is an application launcher capable of keeping up-to-date the downloaded apps (think webstart without the hassle).

Thanks to everybody that contributed pacthes/ideas!

If you haven't seen JMatter in action please take a look at the webstart demo or this screencast.
