Hello there,

this sounds very good to me. To provide a general "layout language" 
sounds very comfortable, allthough one must take care to have a "minimum 
  attribute set", e.g. a set of attributes common to all "render 
engines". Maybe the docu has to be split up to "core attributes" and 
attributes for swing, SWT, ...

I was thinking about using some kind of generator to avoid the use of 
reflection as far as possible *during runtime*. This may help generate 
the docu too. This could be easyliy adopted to generate necessary code 
for SWT as well.

An additional advantage I see from the sample code you provided would be 
to have *one* layout manager of the same kind for all containers 
requiring one of this kind.

I do not really know how much I'm able to help during the X-mas season 
but I would appreciate if you share the code not only with wolf but with 
all who are interested. Maybe we could use the java.net CVS and private 
mail to sync? I'm quite sure we need to communicate only with a handful 
of developers.

Yours,

Frank
