table-layout's Introduction

TableLayout - An Alternative to GridBagLayout

This project is a mirror of the great and powerful layout manager TableLayout by Daniel Barbalace.

Javadoc for this project is available under https://nerro.github.io/table-layout.

Maven coordinates:

<dependency>
  <groupId>info.clearthought</groupId>
  <artifactId>table-layout</artifactId>
  <version>4.3.0</version>
</dependency>

Preface

Little introduction why I created this repository. In one of the projects I wanted to use this layout manager, but it was not easy to find the binaries. JAR files in maven central repository were not the same with TableLayout.jar from Oracle site:

mvnrepository.com (http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/tablelayout/TableLayout/20050920)
oracle.com (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/tablelayout-141489.html)

Further in JARs there are java source files with examples too.

Idea

My idea was (is) to split old project in two projects: tablelayout (with only core files) and examples; and migrate to maven. Then I put it to github. The main motive for adaption and migration is to bring more standard (jar file name etc.) and possibly give second breeze for project with github pull request model.

Conclusion

All rights belongs to Daniel Barbalce (http://www.clearthought.info).

I just changed the build system from ant to maven, subversion to git and extracted examples in the separate project.

table-layout's Issues

Fix compile warnings

The project was updated 2009 last time. Some warning like generics etc should be fixed.

Extract meta inf from POM into parent POM

Extract meta information into parent pom to make current pom more readable.
Project for parent pom is created (https://github.com/nerro/table-layout-parent).

Use enums for table constants and constraints

Instead of using strings and integers enums should be used (more type safe).

Adding of unit tests

The project has no unit-tests. For some logic, like calculate component size, count or etc, it would be very helpful.

java style (formatting, naming, etc)

See https://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/javaguide.html.

Generating javadocs with bash script

Create bash script for automatically deploy javadocs to gh-pages branch.

Extract licence from source files

Extract licence from source files and put it in META-INF folder in jar

Make sure that source files are identical

Compare source files from:

converted svn repo
source jar from mvnrepository (http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/tablelayout/TableLayout/20050920)

Error when building javadocs

There are errors and warnings with new maven-javadoc-plugin:2.9.1. Without solving this we cannot release the new version at Sonatype repo.

Fix Travis-CI configuration

Environment variables in Travis-CI are used incorrect (see travis-ci/travis-ci#5330).

Compatibility with Java 8

Compatibility with Java 8 should be tested. As first step, with maven profile.

Refactoring pom.xml

use dependencyManagement
use properties for dependency and plugin versions

Release 4.3.0 proposal

Issues:
- #16 - Java Compatibility lower to 1.5
- #17 - Fix Travis-CI configuration
- #20 - Error when building javadocs
Deployment:
- deploy to Sonatype Staging repository
- deploy to Sonatype Release repository
- drop Sonatype Staging repository
Documentation:
- prepare release notes
- build javadoc
- update gh-pages branch

Licensing info?

Any idea what license this library is distributed under? I'd like to use it in my own project (https://github.com/apjanke/matlab-jump) but would like to get a better idea of what the licensing situation is before redistributing it.

Migrate project from ant to maven

Improvements in TableLayout.java

All compile warnings should be eliminated.

Change compile java level

In ant build.xml there are 3 specified releases:

1.1 java
1.4 java
1.5 java

I think that minimal version should be changed and compile version too.

Clean up and remove unnecessary classes

SingleFiledLayout.java seems to be not ready for production. Possibly should be removed.

Java Compatibility lower to 1.5

Could you please change requirement in maven to Java 1.5? I have just made a "fork" of original project bacuse I need new maven release with java 1.5...

And after that I found this project... I could drop my project if you would lower requirement to java 1.5 (at the time it doesn't require higher than that)...

Speed up travis builds

mvn install takes around 16 seconds for installing all dependencies in maven local repository. Using cache feature from travis could save the time for other builds (actually 2: jdk6 and jdk7). Later we'll use java8.

add all other files from original project

Add all other files from original project:

builders
extensions
all example classes (put them under test/java/)
original web page with all articles

Replace Maven with Gradle

Advantage is the Gradle Wrapper (https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/gradle_wrapper.html), so CI or developer don't need to install build tool and we can control the build tool version inside of repository.

Following tasks should be done:

add Gradle wrapper binaries
remove pom.xml and configure build.gradle
automate release process to Sonatype Nexus with Gradle task
