JFreeView is a framework based on Java Swing and Java2D for visualizing and editing various kinds of models. The central objects are views that render them selfs on a JPanel. Views can be moved and resized by connected handles.

There are three different components you can use from the JFreeView project.

1. se.bluebrim.view

   This component contains a 2D scene graph that can be used when implementing a graphical application in Swing. To use it include the following in your pom.xml:

   se.bluebrim:se.bluebrim.view:1.x.x

   se.bluebrim.view.example.movableviews contains an example how this component can be used.

2. se.bluebrim.desktop.application Use this component to develop a multi document desktop application in Java Swing. You just have to create four classes to get the whole thing running:

   1. YourDesktopApp extending se.bluebrim.desktop.DesktopApp

   2. YourFileEditor extending se.bluebrim.desktop.FileEditor

   3. YourModel extending se.bluebrim.crud.esox.DirtyPredicateModel

   4. YourPanel extending se.bluebrim.crud.client.DirtyPredicatePanel

      Have a look at se.bluebrim.desktop.application.example.jdbc to se how this is done.

      To use the component include the following in your pom.xml:

      <dependency>
          <groupId>se.bluebrim</groupId>
          <artifactId>se.bluebrim.desktop.application</artifactId>
          <version>1.x.x</version>
      </dependency>

3. se.bluebrim.desktop.application.graphical A component that extends se.bluebrim.desktop.application with functions for creating a graphical desktop application using the se.bluebrim.view component. Adds also functions for saving in the pdf and svg formats. The only difference from using the se.bluebrim.desktop.application component is that you subclass se.bluebrim.desktop.graphical.GraphicalFileEditor instead of se.bluebrim.desktop.FileEditor.

   You can study the se.bluebrim.view.example.architecturegraph example to see how this is done.

   To use the component include the following in your pom.xml:

   <dependency>
       <groupId>se.bluebrim</groupId>
       <artifactId>se.bluebrim.desktop.application.graphical</artifactId>
       <version>1.x.x</version>
   </dependency>
