jython-swingutils 0.2

Makes using Java's Swing UI toolkit easy on Jython

A collection of utility classes and helper functions to make it easier to build Swing user interfaces with Jython. The helpers provide “pythonic” alternatives to often clumsy Java interfaces.

Included in this package:

• enhanced table and list models

• JavaBeans support and automatic property change notification

• property binding

• enhanced file chooser

• preferences access

• text field formatters

• shortcuts for common dialogs

• wrappers for loading JFormDesigner forms

• decorators and functions for invoking Swing code from other threads

• support for running background tasks

More will follow as the project progresses.

There are no releases yet, but you can check out the code from BitBucket.
