January 2004

- DockPresident components developed by luxioban have been added to the JVCL. DockPresident (renamed to JVCL Docking), is a fabulous library of docking components that allows developer to add docking support to their applications with virtually no code. There are several docking styles supported: Standard Delphi, Visual C++, Visual InterDev and the autohiding docking forms of Visual Studio.Net. New docking styles can relatively easy be added by deriving new docking components from the base classes.

- the Delphi eXperience II and Delphi eXperience DotNet components developed by Marc Hoffman now have been added to the JVCL. 
Delphi eXperience II (renamed to Jv XP Controls) is a set of visual components that have a distinct XP/Office XP and include standard controls, like buttons and checkboxes as well as a very nice XP style navigation bar component.
Delphi eXperience DotNet (renamed to Jv DotNet Controls) is a set of standard controls with a visual look similar to the hot tracking style of the VS.Net components. This package includes standard as well as DB enabled controls.
