org.ananas.mac.menu This package abstracts the MacOS application menu.
org.ananas.mac.menu.demo This package contains samples demonstrating the MacOS application menu library.

 

This package provides a more portable interface for the MacOS application menu. Unfortunately AWT and Swing are optimized for Windows and the UI that clones it (KDE, Gnome, you know the Start menu, etc.). So they offer limited support for the differences in the MacOS.

Apple has provided API that give us access to the Mac mecanisms but they are not exaclty portable. This library aims to hides the difference and make the code more portable.
