LWUIT J2ME Framework
Just spotted a new Framewwork for J2ME development called LWUIT which seems to have recently reached a certain level of maturity. Basically it focuses on the UI providing a swing-like model and enables to create a single jar running on a lot of devices (which is handy if you need to go through the Java verified process) and is pretty groundbreaking compared to good old J2MEPolish which generates a couple jar/jad per targeted device… It features :
- Swing Like MVC (Model View Controller)
- Layouts
- PLAF (Pluggable Look And Feel) & Themes
- Fonts
- Touch Screen
- Animations & Transitions
- Rich widgets
- 3D Integration (Optional)
- Painters
- Modal Dialogs
- External Tools
- I18N/L10N
- SVG Integration (Optional)
It’s released under GPLv2 with Classpath Exception which basically makes it free to use!
