So far for a Java IDE I have looked at Eclipse with the WindowBuilder
plug-in from Instantiations. It looks pretty good, although I'm not
sure about FOSS licensing. Right now I have a 14-day time bombed trial
install.

Eclipse is open source.

You can download it freely and use it as long as you want.

You probably have gotten one of the commercial packages built on
top of Eclipse.

Get it fromwww.eclipse.org!


I got the main Eclipse install as a free download. The WindowBuilder
plug-in was indeed something that costs to register once the trial
period expires. Kind of a side (off) topic, but I got the plug-in from
a site called http://www.eclipsepluginscentral.com. It in turn linked
to the Instantiations website that sells WindowBuilder. The
EclipsePlugInCentral site tried to infect me with the Windows ANI
animated cursor exploit. I was patched and have updated AV software so
it didn't do anything (thank God). Does anyone know if this site is
reputable or not? Perhaps they just got 'sploited by a third party and
aren't aware of it...


Eclipse also has a free GUI Builder plugin called VE. Why not try
that ?
