by Dr. Satyaraj Pantham
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0672314231/wendysmall With the arrival of the new Java 2 standard, today's Java
programmers need to master the new JFC Swing classes, which
let Java developers create user interfaces that are just as
rich as those in "native" applications written for Windows
or Unix. Combining "realistic techniques and code that can
be used in your daily programming projects," Satyaraj
Pantham's "Pure JFC Swing" is a great choice for learning
the intricacies of Swing. It combines clear examples on all
the major Swing controls, from the simple to the complex,
along with several hundred pages of reference material on
every Swing object and method.
