I want to learn how to use JGoodies binding (since beans binding seems dead in the water, and so does its fork). the JGoosides binding docs refer to the tutorial source code, but this code is not available in the latest (2.5) distribution.
After looking though previous distribution versions is seems the tutorial code was dropped between 2.0.6 and 2.1.0
Am I to understand that the tutorial is outdated?
if so, is there an up-to-date tutorial distribution somewhere that I just managed to miss?
I had this same exact question and it took me quite awhile to find an answer. You are correct in that the latest version (2.5) does not contain the tutorial code.
