With our latest VisionX EA versions, we changed the style a little bit. It's still the good old VisionX, but with a modern touch.

What else is new?
Our latest EA version now supports commercial EDB JDBC driver. It's not bundled with VisionX, because of driver license, but if you are EDB customer, it's as simple as copy/paste, to use EDB JDBC driver. Sure, this is a developer feature.
Our brand new react UI is also available via npm. The example application already describes how to use reactUI as dependency.
The react UI is not a replacement of our current vaadin UI, it's a modern UI based on react. Using react is sometimes easier in case of customization or if you plan to integrate an application into existing portals. We have still many vaadin UI applications and users, so no worries. We'll keep it as long as possible.
What's next?
We plan to release our flutter app in Q3. It's a complete rewrite of the current app. It's super fast compared to the first version, has full layout support and is still open source.
The current EA version of VisionX 5.6.4660 contains some smaller bugfixes and an update of the new reactUI.

JVx 2.8.5 is out and we have some Source Code statistics for you!
Our last statistics were determined for JVx 2.2. The source code grew by 50.012 lines, since 2.2. We now have 178.896 (JVx library, Swing UI, tests) compared to 128.884 in JVx 2.2. Still awesome if we compare the features of JVx with any other application framework!
Here are the actual numbers for you:

Still a small codebase and still very easy to maintain. Here are more numbers, about testing: |

Our coverage is not as good as with 2.2 but still not bad. |

This are interesting numbers because in JVx 2.2, MemDataBook was on 1st place. We now have more code for database support than before. The newcomers are SimpleJavaSource and PostgreSQLDBAccess.
We tried to reduce complexity of DBAccess and MemDataBook, but complex things are complex. This is why we develop JVx. It makes complex things, simple.
The development phase of JVx 3.0 has started. We'll change some things which are important to know:
JVx 3.0 won't be Java 6 compatible. We'll switch to Java 8 and... still super backwards compatible.
We'll also change some package names like javax.rad. But we don't have a complete list right now.
So keep reading.
We're happy to announce that JVx 2.8.5 is available. It's a bigger bugfix release and comes with many powerful new features.
What's new?
- Loading MetaData performance tuning
- REST
It's now possible to register custom admin services and to disable general admin services. We also introduced a public zone.
- E-Mail support
Simply send an email with pre-configured server settings.
- Dynamic cell editors
Set the dynamic cell editor on one cell and use different cell editors in the same cell, based on a type configuration.
- Simple Map implementation
OpenStreetMap and Google
- Accessible/Not Accessible per environment
- putObject support for DataRow
- Better logging API configuration
- Many more...
