Object gallery

The object gallery contains shortcuts to wizards that create skeletal instances of many objects including files, panels, menus, dialogs, data modules, JavaBean components, servlets and JavaServer Pages.

To display the object gallery, choose File|New. To use a shortcut or template, click the icon. JBuilder creates the skeletal code in a .java file and adds the file to your project.

The object gallery contains the following pages of wizards:
