What does GENIUS means ?
GENIUS means GENeration of Interface for Users of Scientific S/W.
Why GENIUS ?
In Java world, basic tools, as swing, may become relatively complex to use because it stays at a certain low level (on the opposite, it allows to do a lot of things). Moreover, GUI for flight dynamics tools (or, more generally, scientific tools) need most of the time :
- To enter input (numerical) data from the screen or the keyboard
- To read / write these data into files
- To execute computation thanks to these data,
- To visualize results
So, GENIUS, is a higher level layer based on swing, fully written in Java (no need of code generation) but allowing to create more easily such GUI.
Main advantages
- Simplified approach, in particular about events management (BEFORE, AFTER)
- Performing conditional display
- Read/write for files directly integrated
- Units management
- Process management compatible of all OS (thanks to Java).

Remarks
- Some minor evolutions and corrections have been implemented in 1.6/1.6.1 version (see here). No incompatibility has been identified on V1.5 code source.
- More complete tutorials are available in the training & tutorials package.
- Training slides are also available here.
Previous versions
- Version 1.0
- Version 1.0A2
- Version 1.0A1
- Version 1.1: there are some incompatibilities versus the V1.1 version.
- Version 1.2.1 (the V1.2 version does not exist actually as it has never been deployed).
- Version 1.3: just a minor incompatibility versus the V1.2.1 version.
- Version 1.4 (not deployed).
- Version 1.4.1: some interesting improvements with a minor incompatibility versus the V1.3 version (see here).
- Version 1.5: some minor changes and corrections have been implemented. Moreover, only one incompatibility exists on the code source but is very easy to correct (see here).
