JPopupCalendar / News: Recent posts

Sorry I messed up my release names. But I don't feel
like fixing that just now. V02-02pre is an SWT only pre-release. It contains more changes etc. to make
the SWT release feel more like a native SWT widgets.
Thanks again to Daniel Spiewak for his suggestions.
Please take a look at the change logs in the files section.

Again - this is a development release. The current production release is still V02-02.

This release is an attempt to make the SWT version of JPopupCalendar follow the standart SWT style and get rid of remaining awt/swing components. Thanks go out to Daniel Spiewak for his comments and suggestions.
This is a pre-version in order to allow interested users to take a look and give feedback. Though it is fully functional doesn't have any obvious bugs (though that's always a question of how hard you look :) ) the API may still change. So to minimize code changes others may still use the current pro version V02-00.

JPopupCalendar is now released under the Eclipse Public License. My thanks go to Lothar Werzinger who made me aware of existing licensing issues which were not in my intention. I chose the EPL over the LGPL since it allows for more freedom in the use of the provided library. If you do have ideas for improvement, bug fixes etc. - contributions are of course still welcome.

Fixed a bug in the SWT version that led to gray windows under gtk2 and motif (linux and solaris). Also made the code backward compatible with swt-2.1 and fixed a minor resizing issue (or maybe rather an annoyance).

The first release of JPopupCalendar for SWT (named JPopupCalendarSWT) is now available in the download section.
These files are SWT only. For the Swing versions please continue using the JPopupCalendar-V01-00... files.

This release contains all the features missing in the previous release. JPopupCalendar now fully supports internationalization and is compatible with SDK v1.3 and later.

There are no known problems (as of now) and the feature set is seen as complete. But drop me a note if you think something should be added or if you added something yourself that you think should be put into a release.

I should mention that JPopupCalendar currently works for jdk 5.0 only. There are some problems running with jdk 1.4. I hope to have that fixed soon.

Finally got everything together including some documentation to release a version. Currently only a .zip archive is available, so unix-folks have to either use 'zip' to unpack it or wait until I get around to create tar.gz and bz2 packages (today or tomorrow).
I marked this version as 'beta' - there are no known problems with the current version, but since I'm the only one that tested it so far I and know how to use it, I'm not really the best tester :).
