Jtatoo : Api pour vos IHM
Introduction
Jtattoo se compose de plusieurs outils pour les applications Swing. Chacun d'entre eux permet aux
développeurs d'améliorer leur application avec une excellente interface utilisateur. L’api permet de
modifier les thèmes et d’ajouter des boutons close au jtabbePane et autre fonctionnalités.

Installation
Comme tout jar l’installation se fait par l’ajout de la librairie à partir du built path .Il existe plusieur
méthode . Je vais vous présenter deux méthodes
1ère
méthode :
Clic droit sur le projet built path add external archives
Une boite de dialogue s’ouvre et vous demande le chemin ou se situe le jar télécharger
2ème
méthode :
Cette méthode consiste a crée un user library. L’avantage de cette méthode est que vous n’auriez
plus à aller cherche le jar eclipse s’aura d’office là ou chercher
Clic droit sur le projet built path addlibraries  user library (voir screenshots )
