Remember Hexer? Its back. In Java form. For those who dont remember, back in 2005 I posted the alpha version of Hexer, a hex editor written in C#. Like most of my projects, Hexer was abandoned for lack of time. However, the basic idea of an easily extensible hex editor still appeals to me and so I decided to bring it back.
The new version of Hexer is not written in C# anymore. I ditched C# for Java for practical reasons. The primary reason is that Im using Java at work which means Im doing nearly all of my development these days in Java. The second reason is that weve had lots of code thats necessary for Hexer in our companys internal Java library already and I only had to combine our Java library with some new code. That way I managed to implement the first Java version of Hexer in a very short amount of time.
Alright, if everything works out smoothly the first version of Hexer 1.0.0 will be released next week (depending on how fast I can write the remaining unit tests, the documentation, and how quickly I can get someone to update the company website where Hexer will be available as a free download). So lets have a sneak preview of Hexer 1.0.0.
