Owl Sams Teach Yourself Java 2 in 21 Days

Day 20: Designing a User Interface with Swing

NOTES AND CORRECTIONS

  • Sun renamed the Swing package of classes for JDK 1.2 Beta 4. To compile the programs in this chapter, Beta 4 users should replace the package name java.awt.swing with com.sun.java.swing.
  • Sun renamed the Swing package again for JDK 1.2 Release Candidate 1, which became available on Sun's Java site on Oct. 26. Release Candidate 1 or Release Candidate 2 should replace the package name java.awt.swing with javax.swing. Sun states that this will be the official name for the package, so no more changes should be necessary. All of the source code on this site refers to javax.swing.
