As mentioned, any code I blog about or post on freehg.org should be considered to be under the WTFPL unless I say otherwise. Do whatever you like with the menu bar code.

freehg.org is having… issues… at the moment, but you can grab an updated copy of my code from http://www.drmaciver.com/guinterpreter.tar if you want it. Still very much a work in progress!

I just starting a project to do similar a few days ago, what is weird was I was going to write to you to get your permission to use the MenuBar class that you wrote because I would like to use it for the menus.

It doesn’t work yet. You can check it out if you want. I am using google-code to host it, http://code.google.com/p/scalide

I am trying to make an interface similar to Mathematica.

Let me know if you want me to remove your MenuBar implementation.

Best of Luck,
Ben Jackman

Ah, interesting. Thanks.

I figured someone must have done this before, as it’s not exactly hard, but I couldn’t find any examples.

I’ll probably still continue tinkering with this. It’s fun, and I’d like to flesh out the featureset. But I’ll definitely take a look at yours.

I’ve written something similar using SWT some time ago. Check it out here:
