Listen to the file system events with JxFileWatcher

A new product called JxFileWatcher is coming soon.

JxFileWatcher is a cross-platform library providing API to listen to file system events and monitor changes inside specified folders.

• Creation, renaming or removal of files and subfolders
• File size or contents change
• Attributes modifications

JExplorer 1.9, last before major release

JExplorer 1.0 was released back in early November 2004 and it has changed a lot over 3 years. And although we haven't reached the major version 2.0 so far, we are not after higher version numbers. Our goal is to give JExplorer users stability and good features instead. This release is a case in point.

Today we believe JExplorer is a complete software development tool providing a wide set of useful features to its users. This release introduces new ways to efficiently control and manage the Internet Explorer browser component. Flexible proxy configuration and browser cache management are among the recent changes.

New functions were added to the demo application and the documentation was updated appropriately.

With version 1.9 rolled out, it's clear that the next step will be an even version number. The release of JExplorer 2.0 is scheduled for the first quarter of the next year. So stay connected.

Just a reminder. All JExplorer users can upgrade to version 1.9 for free.

QuipuKit 1.2.2 Released

TeamDev is pleased to announce availability of QuipuKit 1.2.2. This release provides improved internationalization support and performance improvements for the DataTable and TreeTable components.

JxCapture Commercially Available

JxCapture is our new library that will allow you easily add different screen capturing abilities to your software. With our powers to speak platforms' languages it was easy to introduce several capture operations and gain outstanding performance even for high resolutions and multiple monitors.

JxCapture leaves Early Access state and is now available for commercial usage.

Right now JxCapture is only available on Microsoft Windows platform, but we are already working on Mac OS X and Linux is on its way.

Special offer: if you purchase JxCapture for Windows now, you will receive licenses for Mac OS X and Linux free of charge. The offer is valid until the end of this year. The version for Mac OS will be available in December 2007.

To try JxCapture, run one of its Web Start demos that contain all needed screen capture abilities (full-screen, region, active window, UI element capture, etc).

You'll notice two demos. They have same functionality but they are implemented using different technologies. We've been intrigued by the new Swing Application Framework and wanted to get our hands on it on a real application. You can try it and see the code of both demos to compare.

Evaluate full-featured JxCapture for 30 days and let us know what you think.
