19th Day @ Apex : SWING

-
Hi Readers,
In Process of developing my  project i have to also learn a new thing about swing.
This is something similar to AWT.
 But They have their own differences.

Java Swing tutorial is a part of Java Foundation Classes (JFC) that is used to create window-based applications. It is built on the top of AWT (Abstract Windowing Toolkit) API and entirely written in java.

Unlike AWT, Java Swing provides platform-independent and lightweight components.

The javax.swing package provides classes for java swing API such as JButton, JTextField, JTextArea, JRadioButton, JCheckbox, JMenu, JColorChooser etc.

There are many differences between java awt and swing that are given below.


No.Java AWTJava Swing
1)AWT components are platform-dependent.Java swing components are platform-independent.
2)AWT components are heavyweight.Swing components are lightweight.
3)AWT doesn't support pluggable look and feel.Swing supports pluggable look and feel.
4)AWT provides less components than Swing.Swing provides more powerful componentssuch as tables, lists, scrollpanes, colorchooser, tabbedpane etc.
5)AWT doesn't follows MVC(Model View Controller) where model represents data, view represents presentation and controller acts as an interface between model and view.Swing follows MVC.



The hierarchy of java swing API is given below.

A Day in Noida: Learning Begins

Today was my first day in Apex Pvt Ltd and I have learnt the basic elements of Java. These elements are given below: 1. What are the uses of println() and printf? Ans: println( )  prints a new blank line and then your message.  printf() provides string formatting similar to the printf function in C .  printf() is primarily needed when you need to print big strings to avoid string concatenation in println() which can be confusing at times (Although both can be used in almost all cases). Eg. int a = 10;int b = 20;  println("a: " + a + " b: " + b);      //Tedious String Concatenation printf("a: %d b: %d\n", a, b);     // Output using string formatting.  While printf() enables you to print fractional outputs up to any decimal place in a single line, the same task using println() can get very complex. 2. What is the use of Java? Ans: Java is a programming language that developers use to create applications on your computer. Chance

Decision making is anticipation of conditions occurring while execution of the program and specifying actions taken according to the conditions. Decision structures evaluate multiple expressions which produce TRUE or FALSE as outcome. You need to determine which action to take and which statements to execute if outcome is TRUE or FALSE otherwise. Following is the general form of a typical decision making structure found in most of the programming languages − Python programming language assumes any  non-zero  and  non-null  values as TRUE, and if it is either  zero  or  null , then it is assumed as FALSE value.
