public class JAboutDialog extends AbstractSimpleDialog
An 'About' dialog which displays information about the host environment, software licenses pertaining to GeoTools (not implemented yet) and, if provided, summary details about your application.

Environment information is obtained from GeoTools.getEnvironmentInfo() and consists of:

  • GeoTools version
  • Java version
  • Host operating system and version
The GeoTools jar listing is obtained from GeoTools.getGeoToolsJarInfo() and consists of GeoTools jars (of the active version) on the application's class path.

To have the dialog display details of your own application, you pass them as a String to the dialog constructor as in this example: 


 final String appInfo = String.format(
           "GeoFoo: Map your foos in real time %nVersion 0.0.1");
