-New in release 0.18 (not yet released)
+New in release 0.18 (Sep 6, 2005)
+* GNU JAWT implementation, the AWT Native Interface, which allows direct
+ access to native screen resources from within a Canvas's paint method.
+ GNU Classpath Examples comes with a Demo, see examples/README.
* awt.datatransfer updated to 1.5 with supports for FlavorEvents.
The gtk+ awt peers now allow copy/paste of text, images, uris/files
and serialized objects with other applications and tracking
clipboard change events with gtk+ 2.6 (for gtk+ 2.4 only text and
serialized objects are supported). A GNU Classpath Examples
datatransfer Demo was added to show the new functionality.

-* The PortableInterceptor and related functionality in other packages
+* org.omg.PortableInterceptor and related functionality in other packages
is now implemented:
-
- The sever and client interceptors work as required since jdk 1.4.
- The IOR interceptor works as needed for jdk 1.5.

-* The DynamicAny package is completed and passes the prepared tests.

* The Portable Object Adapter should now support the output of the
recent IDL to java compilers. These compilers now generate servants and
not CORBA objects as before, making the output depended on the existing
POA implementation. Completing POA means that such code can already be
tried to run on Classpath. Our POA is tested for the following usager
scenarios:
-
- POA converts servant to the CORBA object.
- Servant provides to the CORBA object.
- POA activates new CORBA object with the given Object Id (byte array)
+ - POA converts servant to the CORBA object.

that is later accessible for the servant.

+ - During the first call, the ServantActivator provides servant for this
and all subsequent calls on the current object.
- During each call, the ServantLocator provides servant for this call only.

- POA has a default servant, but some objects are explicitly connected

The POA is verified using tests from the former cost.omg.org.

-* javax.swing.plaf.multi.* package is now implemented.
+* The javax.swing.plaf.multi.* package is now implemented.
+* Editing and several key actions for JTree and JTable were implemented.
+* Lots of icons and look and feel improvements for Free Swing basic and
+ metal themes were added. Try running the GNU Classpath Swing Demo in
+ examples (gnu.classpath.examples.swing.Demo) with:
+ -Dswing.defaultlaf=javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicLookAndFeel
+ -Dswing.defaultlaf=javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel
+* Start of styled text capabilites for java.swing.text.
+* NIO FileChannel.map implementation, fast bulk put implementation for
+ DirectByteBuffer (speeds up this method 10x).
+* Split gtk+ awt peers event handling in two threads and improve gdk lock
+ handling (solves several AWT lock ups).
+* Speed up awt Image loading.
+* Updated TimeZone data against Olson tzdata2005l.
+* Make zip and jar UTF-8 "clean".
+* "native" code builds and compiles (warning free) on Darwin and Solaris.
