Subject: Upcoming name / class change

From: Shannon Hickey 

Hello,

Just a head's up on two changes that will be coming (in both trunk and
preview) over the next day or so:

1) To avoid conflicts between the new Window/Frame/Dialog and the old
Swing versions, the Swing versions will be renamed
SwingWindow/SwingFrame/SwingDialog.

2) To move us closer to a fully node-based world, Application will no
longer have a "Component" as content. Instead, it will have an attribute
of type Stage. The new Stage class will have a writable attribute for
the node-based content and will provide attributes to ascertain the
usable width and height of the area on which content is drawn.

For backward compatibility with old Applications that are Component
based, we'll introduce SwingApplication for the time being.

Please look for this in trunk first, followed by a merge into the branch.

Thanks,
Shannon

Here is a summary of what needs to be changed:

Imports were:
import javafx.ext.swing.Frame;
import javafx.ext.swing.Canvas;

Now should be:
import javafx.application.Frame;
import javafx.application.Stage;


Frame use to start as :

Frame {
    content : Canvas {
        background : Color.GRAY


Should now start as:

Frame {
    stage : Stage {
        fill : Color.GRAY

Not all samples use background/fill.
