What happened to jgoodies binding code?

I want to learn how to use the Jgoodies binding (since the binding beans seem to be dead in the water, as well as its fork). jgoosides binding documents refer to the source code of the tutorial, but this code is not available in the latest (2.5) distribution. after viewing, although previous versions of the distribution, it seems the tutorial code was reset between 2.0.6 and 2.1.0

Do I understand that the textbook is out of date? if so, is there something that I just didn’t have enough?

I had the exact same question, and it took me a while to find the answer. You are right that the latest version (2.5) does not contain the code for the textbook. However, the old tutorial code (v2.06) is a very good starting point and will teach you the basics. (At least that was for me.)

From viewing the Release Note, there are several significant changes between 2.06 and 2.5 with the com.jgoodies.binding.binder package being the largest, (Interestingly, the document doesn’t specifically mention that the tutorial has been deleted ...)

The only one received with the old tutorial code:

com.jgoodies.binding.list.ArrayListModel
com.jgoodies.binding.list.ObservableList

have been replaced by:

com.jgoodies.common.collect.ArrayListModel
com.jgoodies.common.collect.ObservableList

There are also a few tutorials on the Internet that are good, however, please note that they are based on the extremely old v1.0. Again, the principles and concepts are the same.

.

It is available in the Showcase application (the latest version at the time of writing this word is 1.6.6).

http://www.jgoodies.com/downloads/demos/

Open the Showcase app in Java WebStart. You may need to add a security exception for http://www.jgoodies.com in your Java settings so that the application can start.

Once you have opened the demo, you can access the source code by clicking the "Show Details" button in the upper right corner of the window.

Hope this helps. JGoodies Showcase App 1.6.6
