The LAF (Look and Feel Project) helped user change the lock and feel of their form applications.
I always wanted to get it implemented by it was never a real big priority with my application direction team.
Now it seems to be a big Focus for us.
I see alot of documentation up to around 2015 on the project.
Nothing really appears after that. I see that the most recent version the 1772 version is sent with is laf_11122.jar.
I have a few questions
1. Is there an updated version of the jars for version 12?
If not is there a documented procedure for creating a jar on my own?
2. Do the jars have to be signed?
(i assumed that it did so I had it signed ) when I incorporated it to my app I got a error

3. Is the LAF project still a reccomended method of "modernizing" forms ?
I know I should have limit this to 1 question but if you have any info that can point me to recent information about the project ... That would be great!
Thanks in advance!
