Hello everyone,

I'm happy to announce that I've just finished up everything for the 1.19.0 release. Artifacts can be consumed from the 2025-03 SimRel repository or directly from our update site:

https://download.eclipse.org/windowbuilder/updates/release/1.19.0


Focus of this release is an overall cleanup of the inner workings of WindowBuilder, to hopefully reduce the continuous maintenance burden.

In addition, I also started working on a pure GEF-based palette, which in the near future will hopefully replace the current implementation. This palette is still in an experimental stage and needs to be explicitly enabled via the "wbf.gef.palette" system property.

Sadly, due to a source- but not binary-compatible change in SWT, I didn't notice a problem due to which WindowBuilder won't run properly anymore with everything up to and including the 2024-12 release. I'll try to sort this out, but this will then only be available with the next nightly builds.


Many regards,

Patrick
