Developed and co-written by the lead writer on the Swing team, this book covers everything you need to know to write GUIs that use Swing components. The JFC Swing Tutorial uses a task-oriented, example-driven approach to introduce you to fundamental concepts and applications. Designed to be read either cover-to-cover or as a quick reference, this book explains how to use each Swing component, perform layout, do basic drawing, and convert 1.1 AWT programs to Swing. This book covers Swing 1.1.1.
An appendix lists the complete source code for dozens of example applications and applets. The CD-ROM includes Swing 1.1.1, JDK 1.1, the Java 2 Platform, and the hypertext version of all three Java Tutorial books.

Owing to its Web heritage, digestibility is perhaps this book's most notable feature. Short sections on virtually every topic in Swing programming help bring the reader up to speed with this UI library. Early sections look at getting started, the organisation of classes in both applets and applications, as well as useful high-level classes like frames and scroll panes and the like. When it comes to such basic Swing components as text, label and image controls, Swing beginners will appreciate the concise description of each component along with necessary APIs. More advanced material, such as optimising re-painting of Swing controls and techniques for more efficient tables, will be useful to any Swing developer.
Most computer books use either code excerpts or full-length programs. For the main text of The JFC Swing Tutorial short code examples are the norm, but with over 300 pages of complete programs in an appendix, this book will also please those who appreciate more complete examples.
Efficient and thorough, this book succeeds in making JFC / Swing enjoyable while imparting a good deal of necessary information. Armed with this book, any intermediate to advanced Java programmer can make sense of today's Swing with a minimum of effort. --Richard Dragan
