The main feature change is support for render IDs in the Echo 2 implementation, thereby adding support for Selenium. If you are interested in quickly developing applications either with Ajax (via Echo 2) or via Swing, you should check out BeanView. Tools wiverson 2006-08-11T20:40:48-08:00 http://weblogs.java.net/blog/wiverson/archive/2006/06/announcing_bean.html I've released an open source framework I've been working on for some time now as BeanView 1.0. BeanView allows you to create user interface forms automatically from your POJO + JDK 1.5 Annotations objects. It supports generating forms for both Swing and Echo 2 user interfaces. No code generation is required - the form is generated entirely via reflection.
