[luxor-xul-user] Defining Swing GUIS Declaratively: A Survey - By Hans Muller (Sun Java Desktop Engineering Head)

[Gerald B. <ge...@va...>]

Hello,

  Sun has posted all slide decks for this year's
JavaOne developer conference online.

  For those interested in creating Swing Java Desktop
apps using markup languages allow me to highlight the
talk by Sun's Java Desktop Engineering Head Hans
Muller titled "Defining Swing GUIS Declaratively: A
Survey".

  To avoid downloading the complete slide pack (e.g.
90 megs) you can get Hans Muller's slide deck online @
 http://www.swixml.org/TS-7122.pdf

    On Luxor Hans Muller comments:

 o Schema is similar to Mozilla XUL (subset) 
    o Java, Python, or Groovy for behavior 
 o Since 2001, most recent update February 2005 
 o Development continues 
 o Extreme Web presence 
 o Counter app showcase definitely worth a visit
