  Man this has to be the best thing happening to Java, like ever.I''m liking it a lot, especially Static imports and the new High res timer.Discuss 
  Woohoo 1.5 has some neat new features  I love the Autoboxing/unboxing thingy. Yeah way to go Sun!Check this out for a list of new features.Wesley    [edited by - wicked_wesley on February 7, 2004 7:13:43 AM];  It looks great to me, it loads faster, ocean is so much better than the metal theme, enums and generic are a great asset but i''m having trouble using the static imports, I''m usingimport static javax.swing.JOptionPane.*;  And it always give 2 errors on that line:JavaZip.java:11:  expectedimport static javax.swing.JOptionPane.*;  ^JavaZip.java:11: ''.'' expectedimport static javax.swing.JOptionPane.*;    ^2 errors ;  Sorry I can't help you  Your code looks good. Is the ocean theme standard or do you have to set it yourself?Oh wait, try to remove those '.*' and see what happens  Or does JOptionPane has subclasses?Wesley   [edited by - wicked_wesley on February 7, 2004 7:16:59 AM];  ocean is the new standard theme of the default look and feel, also it has a new themable look and feel, which i haven''t use yet, i tried changing the .* to one of JOptionPane constants resulting on the same errors;  Better donwload 1.5 quick, I wanna see the Ocean look 'n feel Have you read the page about static imports? There is alot of info, I don't really understand it though (me=dumb) You have to download a zip file first, but if you want, I can uplaod the file for you  Wesley   EditWho cares if you have read it or not?   Here it is.
