There are a couple of things I wanted to quickly add. - I made a great effort to keep the GUI and non-gui parts of SPSP separate. There is no reason why you couldn't easily tweak the code for a non-graphical program. This would probably take about 30 minutes. - The docking windows framework I used

It is good to see that there is some interest in this work. FYI: The plug-in system in SPSP is done. It is the main thing that I canabalized from OpenJUMP/JUMP. At this point SPSP is basically a shell that loads any plug-ins and builds a bare bones GUI that plug-ins can add "tabbed views" to. You

That is a great development - well done :-) I would encourage you to use to spring or something for plugin system (ie let a project that cares about such things do the plugin part) and focused just on the geospatial. Jody On 12/09/2009, at 5:29 AM, Sunburned Surveyor wrote: > I've spent som

Hi Landon, I'm interested !!! BTW, we're not all Eclipse users here. Well, I'm not :) But as you say, both the Eclipse and Netbeans platforms are often overkill. Jody and I have been putting together a minimal module of Swing components for GeoTools specific tasks so I'd definitely like to che

2009-09-11 Thread Sunburned Surveyor
I've spent some time wrapping up a little project to strip OpenJUMP down to its bare bones. The result is a very simple and pluggable program with a Swing GUI. It is so simple that you can't really call it a "rich client platform". It is more like a "modest client platform". My goal with this litt
