PaperClips Printing Library for SWT: Version 1.0.3 released    

Posted by: qualidafial - on Friday, April 04, 2008 - 12:59 PM
 
PaperClips: simple, light weight, extensible printing library for SWT.

PaperClips is a simple, light weight, extensible printing library for SWT. PaperClips hides the complexity of laying out and rendering documents on the printer, helping you to focus on what to print instead of how to print it.

In a nutshell, PaperClips provides an assortment of document "building blocks," which you can tweak and combine to form a document. The assembled document is then sent to PaperClips for printing. PaperClips includes built-in support for printing text, images, borders, headers and footers, column layouts and tabular (grid) layouts. PaperClips is designed to be extensible, so you can code your own printable document elements.

Changes in version 1.0.3

Bugs fixed:

  • Fixed integer overflow error in GridPrint which sometimes caused printing of very long strings to fail.
  • Fixed column size distribution in GridPrint when paper space is scarce.

New Features

  • PrintPreview now supports lazy layout of print jobs. This can be used to speed up previews of very large print jobs.

Changes:

  • Implement equals() and hashCode() in all Print objects (useful for testing).
  • Performance tuning in text and grid layouts
  • Snippets no longer implement Print interface. This was an unnecessary detail and tends to confuse newcomers.

Known issues:

  • Linux: PrintPreview issues a page feed whenever a PrintPreview control is disposed or changes printers. This is due to missing API in GTK for cancelling a print job.



PaperClips depends on the SWT library, a project of the Eclipse Foundation. The SWT library may be downloaded from the Eclipse site:
http://www.eclipse.org/swt/

GUI Testing Specialist froglogic Announces Eclipse Strategy    

Posted by: rstadlbauer - on Monday, March 10, 2008 - 10:14 AM
 
Hamburg, Germany - 2008-10-03 froglogic GmbH will announce its new Eclipse strategy at EclipseCon 2008 taking place in Santa Clara next week. froglogic is the vendor of the leading, cross-platform automated GUI testing tool Squish. Squish supports creating and running automated GUI tests of applications based on a variety of user interface technologies including Trolltech's Qt toolkit, Java AWT/Swing/NetBeans, Java SWT/Eclipse RCP/JFaces, Web/HTML/AJAX and Mac OS X Carbon/Cocoa.


froglogic's upcoming Squish 4.0 release will bring many ground-breaking improvements to the automated development and QA process. More details about froglogic's product roadmap will be announced soon.

One strategic move is to replace the current in-house implementation of the graphical test development environment with an Eclipse-based IDE that is completely re-designed and re-written from scratch. The new Eclipse-based IDE will be deployed as a stand-alone RCP application as well as a plugin for the Eclipse Workbench.

"After we joined the Eclipse Foundation in 2007, our first move was to implement an integration of Squish into the Eclipse Test & Performance Tools Project (TPTP). Now we go one step further by using Eclipse as the primary IDE for Squish. This has two major advantages for our users boosting their productivity: The very rich feature set of Eclipse is available when working on Squish tests and integration of those tests into existing Eclipse projects." said Reginald Stadlbauer, CEO and co-founder of froglogic.

"We are excited to see froglogic's commitment to the growing Eclipse community. We congratulate froglogic on their upcoming release and welcome their commitment to embracing Eclipse as a platform for building commercial software.", said Mike Milinkovich, Executive Director of the Eclipse Foundation.
