New version of JavacTo available.

Please to announce:	

A new version of JavacTo available for download. Version 1.1
https://sourceforge.net/projects/javacto/


Features:
* Updated JavacToD visitor. Almost 100% parsing success with 
dscanner and JDK package subset (see results below).

* Updated JavacToJava visitor.

* Source and Target Text pane mouse click integration with List 
and Tree views. Click in a text pane and the list and tree view 
will update with the related visitor node. Very cool.

* New search capabilities. Text and Tree.Kind search.

* Support for command line translation (non-UI, very fast).

* Target highlighting is now automatic (matches java source 
highlighting). No need to add code to highlight. In fact, 
manually highlighting code is discouraged.

* Process dialog when reading large .zip/.jar files.

* Other UI enhancements.


Results with dscanner:
Package      Total files       Failed
java.util	362		15
java.math	8		1
java.net	78		0
java.nio	126		1
java.io		83		0
java.lang	219		4

Success is attributed to dscanner providing no output when 
parsing a file.

Failures are all attributed error output from:
* Java’s hybrid enum definition. (Which I believe will take a D 
enum and custom class to implement.)
* Java’s lambda method definition.

Successful parsing with dscanner I believe is a major milestone 
for JavacTo. This suggests a good percentage of java code can be 
automatically translated to D. Clearly this is not a definitive 
statement just yet, but an encouraging move in the right 
direction. Dscanner can now be used to format the JavacToD 
generated code for code review. And <gasp!> critique the quality 
of the code generated (or worse, the quality of the java code :).

It’s clear the next step is to successfully compile the code. 
With effort working towards a successful compile, there's no 
doubt more changes are in store for the JavacToD visitor code. In 
addition, I’m anticipating some hand editing of the generated 
code will be required while other code will be thrown out. 
Perhaps helper code will be warranted as well. In any case, we'll 
see where the compiler takes us as we work towards a weighted 
balance of auto-generated code to hand editing.  Anyway, to be 
clear, the current objective (hope) is to create a D library 
based on java JDK subset listed above (or something close to it). 
This library can then be used as the bases for translating other 
open source java projects to D.

So… more work to be done.
