GUI Designer For Eclipse

Posted by timothy on from the wheel-non-reinvention dept.

Flu writes "Finally, a free (as in speech and beer) and official GUI designer has been released for Eclipse! Just a few days before the Eclipse 3.0 M5 build was released, a complete plugin for creating GUI's was released as well, as one of the Eclipse tools projects. Check it all out on the official site for the Visual Editor Project. At last, the (probably) best free IDE for Java (and C) contains a GUI editor! Personally, I intend to put up an IBM logo to worship next to my desk, as a thank you for the Eclipse! :-)"

    Why is it built on top of that?

  2. The web demos wrecked my marriage! by SoupIsGood+Food · · Score: 3, Funny

    My biggest gripe is with the on-line web demos. After playing them, my girlfriend seems awfully interested in developing Java GUI's all of a sudden... she keeps playing them over and over again, with a dreamy look on her face. I shouldn't have to feel jealous of my IDE documentation...

    (What is that voice-over guy, anyway? French? Spanish? Gypsie? He will single-handedly increase the ratio of male to female programmers to parity... not that they'd be interested in any of us after that.)

    "...language and GUI-framework agnostic."

    Does that mean it's not sure if it believes in the existence of languages or GUIs??

    I guess it is better than the atheist Eclipse, it tries to convince you that language and GUI's can't possibly exist...

    Q. (It's a joke ffs...)
