JX 1.1.18 (the latest cutting-edge version) is now available.  This release
features a major reorganization of the distribution and several new targets
for compiling the source distribution, including Debian, Slackware, and
Solaris.  The new structure is designed to be extensible to support 3rd
party libraries built on top of JX.  Everything unpacks into the JX-1.1.18
directory, and the top level Makefile automatically builds it.

Major new features in JX 1.1.18:

  - XDND version 3
    (http://www.cco.caltech.edu/~jafl/xdnd/)

  - Code Crusader and Code Medic included in binary distributions

  - J3D and Mesa are now in separate distributions

  - JParser provides a parser and graphical editor for algebraic
    expressions

  - JTree implements the Macintosh System 7 hierarchical look-and-feel

  - JSearch provides search & replace

  - JCore compiles with Visual C++ (except for the UNIX specific code)

The binary and source distributions can be downloaded from:

  http://www.cco.caltech.edu/~jafl/jx/download.html
  ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/libs/X/c++libs/

JX is also available on RedHat's ISV CD and S.u.S.E. Linux.

Description:

JX is a full-featured C++ application framework and GUI class library for
X.  The power of JX stems from its rich feature set and extensibility which
support all aspects of professional quality application development.

The features built into JX include a generic messaging system to support
the Model-View-Controller paradigm, document management and interaction,
Drag-And-Drop, 3D graphics, networking (e.g. INET and UNIX sockets), the
ability to connect to multiple X displays, a powerful word processor class,
very extensive table support, background tasks, and seamlessly integrated
postscript printing.

This rich feature set does not impede the extensibility of the system,
however.  The base class for all GUI objects, the Widget, provides
mechanisms for supporting all of the actions and interactions that are
expected in today's commercial applications.  In addition, it is easy to
derive customized classes from almost any class in the library, from the
base Widget class to specialized classes such as Tables and Menus.

JX is designed to make it easy to construct commercial quality
applications.  All the common, required functionality is built in, so
developers need only connect the standard components together and then
develop custom Widgets that are unique to their particular applications.
