PasswordSafeSWT 0.3 ships – now with cool new toolbar!

I’ve finally managed to get 0.3 of PasswordSafeSWT out the door (a blowfish-based personal password manager for Java) . New in this release:

  • Overhauled GUI – with new toolbar and lots of layout fixes
  • Sorted lists – defaulting to alphabetical on first column
  • XML Import/Export – experimental support for now, but should slurp in KeePass exports no worries
  • Lots of preferences have now been implemented (and those that haven’t have at least been greyed)
  • Heaps of bug fixes

Interestingly the toolbar was submitted as a user suggestion on the PasswordSafe Feature Requests (Thanks DeeLight!). Feature requests are just a gold mine of good ideas! I’m going to do some more digging on that list. One feature that was suggested was a Firefox import. I’d love to get that in 0.4, but I’ll see how I go digging through that C++ source…

New Look Toolbar

Anyways, I’m waiting for the CVS source commits to finish against SourceForge as I type this. For now you can grab source and platform binary bundles at the usual spot while Rony helps me work through getting the binary release process setup for the Java project.

  • The source archive on your site seems to be missing the resources directory (but it’s in the project’s build path).

    Also, there’s a small typo in the clean target of build.xml: classees.dir should be classes.dir.

  • Thanks Neil. I’ve made those fixes and they’ll go out with 0.4. Thanks for your feedback!
