I hope it is ok to post this here.) I am pleased to announce the first public release of gnome-gcj: gnome-gcj ========= The gnome-gcj project aims to create a complete set of bindings for GTK+ and Gnome in the Java language; specificly the GCJ/libgcj Java platform. Cygnus Native Interface (CNI) will be used as the interface between C/C++ and Java. The gnome-gcj project is hosted on SourceForge. The homepage of gnome-gcj, the bug tracking system, the mailing lists etc can be found here: http://gnome-gcj.sourceforge.net About this release ================== The current release of gnome-gcj is a development release, and should be treated as alpha quality. Many changes are likely to be made to the Java Gtk/Gnome API, and especially the format of the .defs files. However, it is still usable - most Gtk widgets are implemented. Exotic data structures like GtkStyle are not implmented yet, and neither are any Gnome widgets. Oskar Liljeblad (osk@hem.passagen.se)
