In this section we will see the history of WindowBuilder In this section we will provide some overview of WindowBuilder. It also supports free-form code editing (make changes anywhere…not just in special areas) and most user re-factorings (you can move, rename and subdivide methods without a problem). WindowBuilder Pro can read and write almost any format and reverse-engineer most hand-written Java GUI code. The generated code doesn’t require any additional custom libraries to compile and run: all of the generated code can be used without having WindowBuilder Pro installed. The plug-in builds an abstract syntax tree (AST) to navigate the source code and uses GEF to display and manage the visual presentation. WindowBuilder is built as a plug-in to Eclipse and the various Eclipse-based IDEs (RAD, RSA, MyEclipse, JBuilder, etc.). It provides both Java (Swing, SWT/RCP, eRCP, GWT) and XML (XWT, GWT UiBinder, Android) based UI frameworks. It provides pluggable support for different languages and parsers. It is very modular with dozens of extension points. WindowBuilder Engine provides a rich API for creating UI designers.

It is composed of WindowBuilder Engine, SWT, eRCP, XWT & Swing Designer. The WindowBuilder is available at Eclipse WindowBuilder. Event Handling 8.1 Add Event Handler 8.2 Deleting an Event Handler 9.
