on Apr 1st, 2009e4 0.9 M2 Released!

It’s great to see a new milestone of e4 released (new and noteworthy)!

The major new and noteworthy item in my opinion is that XWT was included for the first time in e4:

e4xwt 300x203 e4 0.9 M2 Released!

What is XWT? XWT is a declarative widget framework that allows you to specify UI components in a declarative fashion. SWT code is generated automatically from an XML-based UI declaration. It’s kind of nice to switch between Design, Source and Java tabs!

In the end, it’s great to see progress.
