Spring 2013

The goal of this project is to create a GUI builder for Swing interfaces. The following features are to be included:

It will itself present a graphical user interface.
The user will select a layout manager.
When the user adds Swing components, they are immediately laid out according to the current layout manager.
The user has control over the attributes of the Swing components that have been added.
The user can add JPanels and select their layout managers.
If the user defines his own JComponents, they can be incorporated into a GUI being built.
When the user is finished, there is an option to generate a Java file that constructs the desired interface. The generated Java code should be readable by a human.
The user will be able to edit the GUI after it has first been generated.
