what is the difference between AWT and SWING what is the
advantage of using swing?
Answer Posted / muffy.jad@gmail.com
Swing is a more powerful alternative for awt.Swing is a set
of classes that provides more powerful and flexible
components than awt.In addition to components like
buttons,check boxes and labels they also provide additions
such as tabbed panes,scroll panes and tables.
The main difference between awt and swing is that swing
components are not implemented by platform-specific code,
instead they are written entirely in Java and therefore are
platform-independent.
swing includes more graphic components then awt.Ritesh sharma
