After much anticipation JavaLogo version 0.1 is finally released. JavaLogo is a small two dimensional graphics library for Java. JavaLogo's main goal is to remove most of the barriers to learning Java. It does this by hiding as much of the Java concepts as possible. Examples:
- Only one package needs to be imported (org.javalogo.*)
- All of the Swing elements used by JavaLogo are kept encapsulated inside the JavaLogo classes.
- there are only three classes in the JavaLogo library (Turtle, TurtleGraphicsWindow, and TurtleGraphicsPanel)... read more
Just a bunch of sourcecode, that kinda sorta works. Check out the stuff in the org.javalogo.impl package. We desperately need help with drawing in Swing. This whole getContentPane() stuff is confusing the heck out of me.
You can use the standard anonymous SourceForge CVS checkout to get the JavaLogo files. The modulename is javalogo. http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=9314
