Note: Diva is avvailable from Quintessential Objects, Inc.
1) Alpha preview of 'Diva for Java' is available at
http://www.inch.com/~friskel
2) The available version of Diva contains only a rough preview of
the 'visual applet designer'. The version we're working on will contain
SIGNIFICANT enhancements. The next version (end of Feb) of Diva will
include:
- Visual Designer with support for all AWT controls and user subclassed
controls.
- There will not be a need for any 'resource' files. The Designer will
parse the .java source files for all required information.
- You will be able to place more than one designable objects in one .java
source file. A Designable object must be derived from a Panel.
- Full Class-wizard support similar to MSVC++. This will assist the Java
programmer in handling events and organizing thier code. We love this piece.
All comments and suggestions are welcomed.
