Anyone got a new JDIC build (jdic.jar) they can share

I've noticed that quite a few of the java files have changed since the last release in November.

Has anyone got a build done using only the most up to date source files that they can share here?

I do not have all the tools needed to build it myself. I tried updating just the jar files using the latest Java code but my program will not work with it.

I find it hard to believe that no one has a build. Can one of the project members please do a new build with the latest source? I don't think that is too much to ask given that it is 8 months since the last build.

In the absence of an official new build has anyone successfully built JDIC using eclipse?

Dead, I tell you; this project is dead. I've had the same problems, and have asked for help in much the same manner, and have been met with the same silence. Best of luck, and let the forum know if you find some other project or something that will help us all out.

Well jdic-0.9.2 (27,28 April 2007) is whole lot more recent than November 06, thanks uta, although I do notice that support for Mac seems to have vanished which is a pity. I was always looking in the alpha builds as the other builds were so ancient!

To answer ljnelson...

Things I have come across in my internet travels, I hope some of this information is new to some of you.

You can get org.jdesktop.jdic.desktop.Desktop functionality from java.awt.Desktop.getDesktop() so why would you bother with jdic for that anymore? I believe from what I've read that the browser will also be absorbed into official Java eventually.

Meanwhile while we wait and wait for Sun to do this.

The SWT widgets provide a very nice lightning fast browser alternative, you can run them standalone and it is possible to use Swing widgets inside SWT but difficult if not impossible to use SWT inside Swing. See http://www.eclipse.org/swt/widgets/

Lastly the other intriguing thing I found is this: http://lobobrowser.org/index.jsp I'm not sure how robust it is yet but give it a try and let us all know.
