Sanaware Java Docking is a library for managing the windows of a Java Swing application.
With the Sanaware Java Docking Framework you can:
* Organize the windows of your application in panels, split panes, tabs, lines, grids and floating windows.
* Reorganize the windows of your application by drag and drop.
* Minimize and maximize your windows.
* Save your workspace.
* Organize the toolbars, buttons, and actions of your application.
Buoy is a library for creating user interfaces in Java programs. It is built on top of Swing, but provides a completely new set of classes to represent graphical components. It offers many advantages over using Swing directly, including:
* A much simpler, cleaner, and more consistent API
* A better mechanism for laying out interface components
* A far more powerful event handling mechanism, which is based on dynamic binding of arbitrary methods as event listeners
* Built in support for serializing user interfaces as XML, then reconstructing them again
Other important features of Buoy include:
* It forms a "transparent wrapper" around Swing. It hides the complexity of Swing when you don't want to deal with it, but doesn't get in your way when you actually need that complexity.
* It is very small and efficient. The entire compiled library is only 200 K.
* It is written entirely in Java, and works on any JVM that is compatible with J2SE 1.4 or later.
* All source code is in the public domain.
Swing Explorer is a tool for Swing developers intended for visual exploring of Swing-based application internals. It finds all windows in explored Swing application and displays their component hierarchies as a tree. Each component in the tree can be displayed in the Swing Explorer's work area and visually inspected. Swing Explorer helps to determine sub-components when user moves mouse over them and provides additional information about currently selected component (layout, size, coordinates, border and other things). Additionally it allows to view basic graphical operations used to draw swing components like DebugGraphics does, but in more convenient way.
