As with all the Sun software line, Java UIs are being “refreshed”.
New install Mustang (Java 6) splash screen:
New JConsole look-and-feel and login dialog (with attach on demand support):
New JConsole feature: connect/disconnect.
An new splash screen for Java Web Start’ed applications:
So does Sun admit that Ocean L&F is not the way to go? Is the L&F we see there the default in Mustang?
Is the comment on Ocean a matter of taste? Can you be more specific?
The snapshot is taken without any specific l&f setting on Windows XP, but granted, you can’t really get a good feeling of the look-n-feel.
You should get Mustang and try SwingSet for yourself.
Well, I’m saying that the new look is much nicer than in Tiger. And I figure that is because jconsole now uses XP instead of Ocean L&F. And I’m saying if you think that XP looks better, too, than I suggest you make it the default for all Swing Apps.
