Swing's in java


                                  Swing in java 



Swing is the Java platform's UI -- it acts as the software to handle all the interaction between a user and the computer. It essentially serves as the middleman between the user and the guts of the computer. How exactly does Swing do this? It provides mechanisms to handle the UI aspects described in the previous panel:

• Keyboard: Swing provides a way to capture user input.

• Colors: Swing provides a way to change the colors you see on the screen.

• The address bar you type into: Swing provides text components that handle all the   mundane tasks.

• The volume of the music: Well ... Swing's not perfect. In any case, Swing gives you all the tools you need to create your own UI.

Swing library is an official Java GUI toolkit released by Sun Microsystems. It is used to create Graphical user interfaces with Java.

AWT stands for the "Abstract Window Toolkit" and it is used for creating the graphical user interface.The main problem is that it uses the components designed by the windows.While the swings creates its own components.

Therefore the layout of the application will remains the same irrespective of the operating system on which the application is run.

All the components of the swings are present in the package javax.swing.



The main characteristics of the Swing toolkit

  • platform independent
  • customizable
  • extensible
  • configurable
  • lightweight
