Swing MVC Framework
Interesting article on Swing MVC use. The author presents his ongoing R&D framework JStaple. It is discussed at http://www.theserverside.com/news/thread.tss?thread_id=30278 Some of the comments are good. What may be missing is the understanding that even if Swing does have everything neccessary to solve GUI problems, having the expertise, time, or incentive to apply them, is not always possible. In fact, anything beyond a simple "Hello World" does become an OOP spaghetti feast. There is a need for a Swing framework that does some information/control hiding. Some others?
