JFCDataCalendar

The JFCDataCalendar is a calendar JavaBeans component designed with a stunning selection of borders and UI effects.

Advanced features include images in days, multi selection of date ranges and an easy to use API and event handlers.

JFCDataExplorer

Winner of the JDJ Editor's Choice and Java Pro Reader's Choice awards. The JFCDataExplorer creates a treeview that allows users to drill-down on data structures and display corresponding tables in the right-hand pane. In addition to a grid, this flexible component "opens" the right-hand pane to allow placement for any Java Panel or Component making it the perfect UI for organizing and streamlining application data. With limited screen real estate, developers can create data hierarchies with corresponding grids, charts, calendars and panels on a node-by-node basis. The JFCDataExplorer adheres to the Java Object & Component Model making it a natural extension of JFC. In addition to supporting the JTable Data Model, JFCDataExplorer can also use a custom Data Model that was designed specifically for this component and incorporates a treeview into its structure.

"...[JFCDataExplorer] is one of those rare components that is
attractive from a user interface and a component
model/language point of view. If you want a
practical example of the power of JFC, download a
