Abstract:
Rich Applications has achieved a new degree of sophistication
with requirements to add multimedia and animation. With the
introduction of the new JavaFX SDK and Java SE 6
update N, it is possible to incorporate the newer elements
of a very rich client application into new and existing
Java applications.
Attend this session to get a very brief overview of the
JavaFX programming language and the animation and media
APIs that make it possible to create some sexy looking
GUIs which was hitherto difficult in Java.
After attending this session, attendees will walk away
with a good understanding of JavaFX and Java SE 6 Update
N and how to incorporate the features, such as audio, video
and animation into their applications. They will also get
an idea of the deployment options i.e. applets or applications.
